The popular "BRED" colorway of the AIR JORDAN 1 from NIKE is now available in a mid-cut version! The AIR JORDAN 1 debuted in 1985 as the signature model for Michael Jordan, later hailed as the "God of Basketball." At the time, he was still a rookie who had only made a name for himself in college, but NIKE released the AIR JORDAN 1 "BRED" to coincide with Jordan's debut. The black and red color scheme of the shoes violated the NBA's shoe regulations at the time, resulting in Jordan being fined. However, NIKE paid the fines and continued to have Jordan wear them, which dramatically increased their popularity. Furthermore, the unprecedented design captivated many people, and the series continues to be a huge hit, exciting sneakerheads to this day.
