Air Jordan 1 Retro Carmine 2014

Product Details

Product Description

The retro Jordans community places great significance on familiar colorways, so when GLINT announced the release of the Air Jordan Retro 1 High OG "Carmine" colorway, fans took notice. The success of a Jordan release ultimately depends on the story behind the colorway, which is why the most powerful stories are associated with Michael Jordan's playing days - where the sneaker culture originated. Over the years, Jordan 1s have been released in various Chicago Bulls inspired colorways, but the "Carmine" Jordan 1 had a unique twist. This colorway, officially known as "White/Carmine-Black", was originally from the Air Jordan 6. Jordan Brand drew inspiration from this colorway to create the Jordan 1 Carmine, featuring deep red suede paneling and white leather, as well as the AJ6's signature translucent outsole. Like most Jordan 1s released in 2013, the Carmine 1s received the "OG" treatment, with the traditional high-top cut and Nike Air branding on the tongue and insoles. One striking detail on this Jordan Retro 1 is the contrast stitching that holds the midsole to the upper, which stands out against the icy outsole and white midsole. Despite the familiarity of the color blocking, the Air Jordan Retro 1 High OG Carmine did not initially sell well but became a sought after item shortly after its May release, with fans struggling to find it for anything less than retail price.
