Celebrating the shoe that started it all, here's a look at the lineage of Michael Jordan's first signature shoe — the Air Jordan 1.

Designed by Peter Moore, the Jordan 1 originally released from 1985 to 1986. Quite a few colorways of the model were produced, as well as a few different variations. Following its initial run in the 80s, the Jordan 1 jumpstarted the retro era in 1994, following Jordan's retirement from basketball. The shoe returned again in 2001, including the introduction of a Jumpman branded mid-top. It wasn't until 2008 that Jordan Brand started re-releasing the Jordan 1 with its original high cut.

Since then, the Jordan 1 High has had a relatively consistent presence in the market, as it's been featured in the 22/1 Collezione ‘Countdown’ Pack. the Doernbecher freestyle series and commemorated Jordan's Hall of Fame induction in 2009. In recent years, the shoe has enjoyed a heightened level of popularity behind the retro of the canvas-based Air Jordan 1 KO, Nike SB collaborations and the highly anticipated return of OG "Nike Air" branding. Jordan Brand has also been packaging the Jordan 1 in a retro box-inspired by the original 1985 design.

To keep you updated, here's a look at the history of the iconic sneaker, from its first release up to its most recent.

Why are Jordan 1s hard to find?

We can all agree that hype helps drive sneaker popularity and sales. The Jordan 1 is and has been one of the most hyped shoes out there, with celebrities and influencers seen rocking the sneakers to this day. This definitely contributes to certain colorways selling out and being more difficult to find for retail.
