The Air Jordan Brand has released a slew of popular colourways over the years. Still, some have become instant classics in the eyes of sneakerheads. So, we’ve put together a list of the top Jordan colourways that every sneakerhead should own.
Bred Jordans
Jordan Brand’s black and red sneakers, like the Jordan 1 “Banned”, the Jordan 4 “Bred”, and the Jordan 11 “Bred”, are among the most beloved pairs in the brand’s history.
Chicago Jordans
Jordan fans will always love a mix of white, red and black on their kicks. The colour scheme, like the Bred colourway, is inspired by the Chicago Bulls’ team colours and works well on all models, especially the Jordan 1.
UNC Jordans
The “UNC” Jordan colourway, inspired by Michael Jordan’s years at the University of North Carolina, is a signature colour scheme that’s been adopted by nearly every Jordan silhouette. The most noteworthy of the offerings are the AJ1s, AJ3s and AJ11s.
Cool Grey Jordans
The Cool Grey colourway first appeared on the Air Jordan 11 “Cool Grey” in 2001, but given popular demand, JB added it to other classic silhouettes, including the Jordan 1, 4, and 9.
Black Cat Jordans
Michael Jordan’s “Black Cat” nickname inspired a number of all-black Jordans that are as versatile as they are timeless. Some fan-fave models to wear the blacked-out style include the original Jordan 13 colourway, as well as the Air Jordan 3 and Air Jordan 4 models.
White Cement Jordans
While the Jordan 3 was the first to wear the white and cement grey colourway in 1988, the combo works equally well (some would argue better) on the Jordan 4 silhouette. Still, the look has been worn by a few different models over the years, including the Jordan 1.
Shadow Jordans
The Jordan 1 and 10 have both been dressed up in Jordan Brand’s popular black and grey “Shadow” colourway. Needless to say, both offer stealthy perfection.
Black/White Jordans
The Jumpman Label has offered fans a number of black and white colourways across its various silhouettes. That said, the Jordan 11 “Concords”, the “Steel” 10s, the “Taxi” 12s, and the He Got Game” 13s are the cream of the crop.
Mocha Jordans
Jordan Brand’s Mocha colourways are must-haves. Period. Whether it’s Travis Scott’s premium Jordan 4 and Jordan 1 kicks or the brand’s more budget-friendly AJ1 low and high options, you need at least one in every collection.
Court Purple Jordans
JB is pretty well known for its exceptional purple colourways, but the Court Purple Jordan 1s and 13s are definitely standouts.
