Air Jordan 1 – Bleached Coral
The Air Jordan 1 and its OG makeups may be the pinnacle of retro MJ lore, but that doesn’t mean the timeless silhouette can’t receive a refresh. Covered in heritage Jordan Brand colors recalling past styles — like a Black Toe and Grey Fog lower heel with premium White underlays — the Air Jordan 1 “Bleached Coral” is a modern arrangement in makeup and placement. A pop of Bleached Coral showing off its “NIKE AIR” detail on the tongue brings a bit of seasonal color into a muted rotation.

Concepts x Nike Air Max 1 SP – Heavy
To celebrate 35 years of a sneaker icon, we drop our second Air Max 1 in festival fashion. In August of 1969, almost half a million festival goers made a trip to Bethel, NY and sent a message to the universe. They were dressed in the eclectic fashions of the time: faded denim, surplus fatigues (including M-65s and tiger camo), corduroy, and decorated with peaceful protest motifs. Jackets carried fringes, hair was decorated with flowers. The event concluded as a lasting symbol of ’60s counterculture. With the Concepts x Nike Air Max 1 SP “Heavy,” we link the legacy of that August weekend to a lineage of radical youth expression. While the material mix is similar to the “Mellow,” it’s heavier. We’ve got denim, tiger camo and leather, and these three materials juxtapose with the softness of wide wale corduroy at the collar. The “Heavy” also includes patterned elements of bandanna, cowhide, and woven material panels. The former, a Concepts-exclusive, approximates the famous guitar straps employed by festival performers.

Air Jordan 11 Low • 72-10
Let’s cut to the chase – the embroidered tongue tag says it all: “Inspired by the most historic season led by the greatest player ever.”
Which player? The Jumpman. Which season? The one where MJ won 72 games and a title wearing the Air Jordan 11. That season, vanquishing opponents in patent leather luxury became his deal on the court. Off the court, he could just as easily step into rooms and make moves in the shiny, exotic car-inspired sneaker. With a Black patent leather and tumbled leather upper working like a dynastic duo, the “72-10” Air Jordan 11 Low pays homage to that magical year in premium style.

Air Jordan 5 • Raging Bull 2021
The beloved Air Jordan 5 Raging Bull is making a return this year. Without a doubt one of the best non-OG colorways of Michael Jordan’s 5th signature shoe, the Red suede Air Jordan 5 originally released alongside the “3M” pair as part of the Air Jordan 5 Raging Bulls Pack aka the Air Jordan 5 Toro Bravo Pack back in 2009.
The eye-catching Air Jordan 5 gets covered in a Varsity Red suede all over the upper with Black accents hitting the eyelets, inner liner, the Jumpman on the tongues and heels, and the midsole. Silver reflective 3M tongues, “23” embroidered ankles, white and red shark teeth on the midsole, and an icy blue translucent outsole with a red Jumpman wrap things up. Official images show that the model will also come with special packaging that mimics that of the original release.

Air Jordan 6 • Midnight Navy
A colorway that’s been in the vault for over 20 years is coming back strong this spring. Keeping to OG specs, the Air Jordan 6 “Midnight Navy,” first released as a retro in 2000, is colorblocked in a familiar fashion for fans of the AJ6. A clean all-White premium leather upper allows for a crisp juxtaposition with Midnight Navy accents on the midsole, embroidered Jumpman, heel piece, and tongue. Its icy, translucent outsole finishes the style with a cool edge.

Air Jordan 9 • Chile Red
MJ had to switch it up from the court to the diamond when the Air Jordan 9 hit shelves in 1993, but the Tinker Hatfield-designed style still brought the heat with a high-top shape and a unique mixed materials mudguard and upper. Here, Jordan Brand brings back the heat in a “Chile Red” makeup — no extra sauce needed for this all-Chile Red quilted stitched upper, patent leather mudguard, and shiny midsole. Spicy enough to stand alone, this heritage-inspired AJ9 colorway proves that the game will never really end.

Air Jordan 1 Rebellionaire
In September 1985, Nike and MJ launched the Air Jordan 1. A month later, they were “banned” by the league. Although the AJ1 is a sports and streetwear icon now, back when the sneakers debuted, they were highly disruptive and instantly revolutionary. While the league may have tried to stop MJ from lacing up in the original AJ1, they couldn’t do anything to temper the fans, so “They Can’t Stop You From Wearing Them” became a defiant rallying cry. Now, the spirit of the sneaker is brought to life through the ‘Rebellionaire’ Air Jordan 1, which features that same not-so-subtle reminder printed all over the style’s upper, and includes a Red “X” mark on the heel to commemorate the birth of the banned legend.

The Air Jordan 1 returns in 2022 with OG color-blocking and heritage styling, but adds a new color to its historical lineage: Dark Marina Blue. While the world-famous Air Jordan 1 stance and shape remain the same, this beloved retro makeup features a new flavor.

A classic debossed Air Jordan Wings logo clipped to the collar finishes off a new fan favorite.
Nike Air Max 90 DQM • Bacon
February 19, 2022 | Category: Ward 1 Sneakers
The DQM x Nike Air Max 90 is the stuff of legends. Originally released in 2004 as a limited-edition collaboration, the shoe drew inspiration from Dave Ortiz’ butcher shop-themed boutique, with bacon as the main course.
The early 2000s were a very different time for the sneaker world than what we are experiencing today. Then, Nike was the undisputed king of footwear, leading the way with silhouettes like the SB Dunk, the all-new Nike Kobe line, and of course, Air Max silhouettes. In 2004, the brand teamed up with New York City’s DQM (Dave’s Quality Meats) boutique for an exclusive release of the fan-favorite Air Max 90. Taking inspiration from DQM’s butcher shop theme, the “Bacon” Air Max 90 displays an array of colors that immediately evoke the idea of tasty breakfast meat. Both light and dark shades of brown, red, and a splash of pink make up the legendary DQM x Nike Air Max 90.
The legendary 2004 Air Max 90 release from New York City boutique Dave’s Quality Meats and Nike is a fan-favorite Air Max, and will likely be limited, releasing from both Nike and select high-level retailers for $140+.

Air Jordan 11 Retro Platinum Tint
Jordan Brand’s flight-fueled ethos inspires the latest colorway of the iconic Air Jordan XI with the arrival of a new ‘Platinum Tint’ iteration. Sporting colors pulled from flight suits and space-ready materials, the Air Jordan XI ‘Platinum Tint’ takes the coveted classic to new heights.
The primary design element that sets the latest Air Jordan XI apart is a premium nubuck upper, which is constructed in a smooth Platinum Tint hue. The Air Jordan XI has become synonymous with special moments on and off the court, and this never-before-released colorway, constructed with elevated materials, continues that storied tradition.
While the upper of the Air Jordan XI ‘Platinum Tint’ keeps it clean, bold hits of university red help the sneaker to stand out. Branding hits pop across the silhouette, as the Jumpman logo, tongue tag and heel 23 are found in the classic hue.
Finally, the Air Jordan XI ‘Platinum Tint’ features an opaque Sail outsole that further differentiates this elegant version of the Jordan Brand favorite. In addition, a bright University Red Jumpman logo can also be found on the outsole nestled next to the shoe’s iconic carbon fiber plate.

Game One

Michael Jordan’s 1st Game
On Oct. 26, 1984, Chicago Bulls rookie Michael Jordan made his NBA debut against the Washington Bullets.
The No. 3 overall pick in the 1984 draft didn’t put up legendary numbers in his first game, but he did put up solid numbers in his debut. Although he made only five of his 16 shots from the field, Jordan finished the game with 16 points, seven assists and six rebounds.
Chicago beat Washington, 109-93.
Jordan went on to win the NBA Rookie of the Year award by averaging 28.2 points, 5.9 assists, 6.5 rebounds and 2.4 steals in his first season in the league.
Of course, that was just the start of things to come. Jordan made 14 All-Star teams, won five NBA Most Valuable Player awards and led the Bulls to six championships, winning the NBA Finals MVP award in all six.
