Air Jordan 1 Retro Hi Strap Black/Varsity Red-White

1196 days ago - by George Kiel III - 114 comments

Velcro, laser prints, and now…removable straps? To your hatred (or liking), the Air Jordan 1 has been the subject of many changes over the past month. From the Jordan 1 Lo Red Velcro, to the Jordan 1 Lo Velcro Laser Print, to the Air Jordan 1 Retro Hi Strap Black/Varsity Red-White you see here, JB refuses to leave this sneaker alone.

Reminiscent to the Nike Air Force 1 Hi, this Air Jordan 1 Hi features a strap around the ankle; however, the strap is removable (for those days you just want to lace ‘em up). Maybe strap-happy Rasheed Wallace will hoop in these one time during the season!

Although the strap may throw you off a little, you cannot ignore the fact that the Air Jordan 1 Retro Hi Strap is equipped with the OG colorway everyone loves. The Jordan 1 Hi Strap will be available on November 28th, 2008 for $110; however, this limited release will be available only at certain urban accounts and Niketowns.
