The shoe that started it all, the "Air Jordan 1" was originally released in 1985 as Michael Jordan's first signature shoe. It was also the first shoe to be worn in the National Basketball Association (NBA) that featured multiple colors. The alternate colorway honors MJs alma mater, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.⠀ When the "Air Jordan 1" first hit the shelves in 1985 it retailed for only $65.00. These pairs are not retros. They are from that original release in 1985. Given that these are unworn, its rarity is nearly unparalleled. It is necessary to note that any pair from this time, despite its listed condition as "deadstock" and "unworn," will exhibit some aging and cracking.⠀ ⠀ Lot No. 850911BY.
