Top 10 Best Air Jordan Sneaker Colorways
#10: Air Jordan 3 “Black Cement”
These shoes were dropped on MJ’s 55th birthday, staying true to the older versions of themselves. Releasing at $220 USD, these are a must-have for many sneaker fans. The gray and black “cement” accent, as well as having a hint of fire red. They go from anywhere between $400 and $1,200 USD.
#9: Air Jordan 1 Retro “Carmine”
They debuted as a Jordan 1 in 2014, releasing for $140 USD. With a clean and simple red, black, white, and baby blue, these sneakers have crazy resale value, going from anywhere from $300 to $5,000 USD, at one point size 8 selling for over $100,00 USD on Stockx.
#8: Air Jordan 4 “Off-White Sail”
The Air Jordan and Nike brands have had a rich history with Virgil Abloh’s Off-White stylings. Off-White may create a schism soon enough, after the tragic passing of Abloh. These shoes retailed for $200 on July 5th, 2020. They go from anywhere between $1,000-10,000 USD.
#7: Air Jordan 1 “Lost and Found”
Retailing for $180 on November 19th, 2022, these shoes were instantly sold out. These shoes have an interesting concept, being remakes of the original “Chicago’s” from 1985. The idea is that they got lost in the back of the store, and were found nearly 40 years later. They go for $275-450 USD.
#6: Air Jordan 1 low x “Travis Scott x Fragment Design”
This particular pair of Air Jordan 1’s were immediately picked up by sneakerheads, at a low price of $150 USD. Influential rap star Travis Scott released yet another shoe with the Jordan brand. They were released on August 13th, and now are being resold from anywhere between $2,000-3,000 USD.
#5: Air Jordan 3 “White Cement Reimagined”
Going for $210 USD on Nike’s website, these remakes were just recently released on SNKRS. Selling out quickly, these clean-looking shoes are a sure way to improve your sneaker game. They go for around $210-330 USD.
#4: Air Jordan 11 “Concord” 2018
With a really clean look, these shoes dropped for $220 as Jordan’s annual holiday 11 release. A remake of the original Concords made in 1995, they go for around $440-1,500 USD. Still a fan-favorite and an absolute grail, these have Michael Jordan’s #45 -the number he wore after coming back from retirement- on the backtab, and the Jumpman logo on the side.
Before we get to the Top 3, here are some honorable mentions. The shoes are really good but aren’t good enough for the best 10.
Air Jordan 1 x Gatorade “Blue Lagoon”
With a plain base of lagoon blue and a striking accent of bright orange, these sneakers dropped for $175 USD but now go for anything between $350 and $800 USD. Gatorade and Jordan made a few other Jordan 1’s but this is the cleanest-looking sneaker from the collaboration.
