Some sneaker knowledge does not ever require a person to be a real sneakerhead! For example, anybody can tell you what the Jumpman is, and what an Air Jordan 1 looks like. And these are FACTS. But, let’s be honest, some colorways are better than others! So, we’ve decided to rank the best Jordan 1 colorways of ALL TIME… The GOAT of colorways if you want.
So, today, we picked out the 10 coolest colorways we could think of among Jordan 1s. The colorways we chose are mostly very popular, and you can easily identify them, just by sight! In fact, every sneakerhead worthy of a collection should already have most of these. Add to that that some of the coolest colorways are also collaborations! We got general releases and even exclusive drops that have all made the list! AND, the best part is, they’re not all super expensive Jordans.
In other words, you can still cop them on the resale market and not have to sell a kidney for it. And just in case a pair is expensive, we added for each colorway some alternative variations that you can have too. You’ll see! Oh, this reminds us… If you wanna check out the upcoming Jordan releases, we got you a list of the upcoming November releases! Summer is always a fun time when it comes to sneaker releases… amirite?!

Finally,
This basically wraps it all up on the best Jordan 1 colorways. But, although you can still cop a lot of them, some Jordans can get pretty expensive. So, what we’re trying to say is, you should always be the one copping a hundred pairs. And then, you should be the one flipping them on resale.
If you wanna learn to do exactly that, then just click on the button below. You will become the ultimate sneaker reseller in the game. You can even do that by copping some of the Jordans on this list. But make sure you’re ready to step into a whole lotta botting and sneaker talk! But you know, all that shit is worth it when you start cashing it!
