Air Jordan 1 25th Anniversary Packaging
In a world where the releases are memorable and presentation is everything, Jordan Brand decided to bring back a special edition packaging for a shoe that knows this setup all too well. Two versions of the the Air Jordan 1 High in the metallic silver color first hit the scene back in 2001; one as a stateside release in a regular box and 8 lace holes and the other as a Concept Japan (co.jp) exclusive which came in special edition case (much like the one seen here) as well as a numbered tongue tab and hangtag on the case.
This year will mark the 25th Anniversary of the Air Jordan 1 so many Jordan 1 fans who may have missed out or chose to opt of paying $600+ on eBay can now enjoy a breath of fresh Air at the “silver lining” superbly crafted in this Jordan 1 Hi. Will this be another special offshore release? Release is still set for a spring 2010 release so hold on to your laces for more updates!

What they bringing back the “suitcase”
Def cop for me even before “the suitcase”
^^^lmao
O MAN!!!! cant wait now have to grab these they will make my ones collection complete i feel good now
I had yawned at these ever since the news dropped cuz I mean we seen a plethora of ones lately, but JB you include that suitcase and you’ve got urself a guaranteed sale. It’ll make paying for yet another pair of ones worth it.
I like those. I don’t have any 1s so i guess I gotta start somewhere.
i just want the suitcase
I’m in!
geting these hoes fo sho and i think its a january release
Anybody that knows my track record knows I don’t pass up on Retro 1s in exclusive colorways, and the suitcase………..nuff said!
Def a dissapointment…they look more like the gs release earlier this yr than the releases a few yrs back..also the u.s. version a few yrs back WAS numbered like the jap. version.
I been needin somethin to put all of my wrenches, ratchets, sockets, vice grips, cresent wrench, & things of that nature, organized….definitely coppin.
I’m torn..I think the actual shoe is horrible and that silver crackle stuff on the toe swoosh and heel looks horrid, but I want the suitcase..JB is smart they know these shoes wouldn’t sell but adding the suitcase will make them move..I really need to know what retail on these will be
^^aww u dont treat the “suitcase” like that mayne!
Any excuse to jack up the price on a 110 dollar shoe, huh Jordan Brand? With so many 1′s coming out this year, this is what they decide to put in the suitcase? The black and grey 1′s are better than these by FAR.
I still have my mine from 2001 but no suitcase. I dont care what kind of fancy bow or wrapping they put on these shoes. Every Jordan I have seen for the past 2 years is such a crappy quality it might as well be a variant or flea market special.
I LUV 1s!!!!! Got DMP1s and OGs and many more will make my 1s collection super hard
and the hype begins. People who said they wont copp these the time will now copp just because of the briefcase. hypebeast man…….hypebeast SMH.
Im still torn on whether to cop or not. The shoe is alright at best. Nothing special n no where near as nice as the 2001 retro’s. They look more like a kids release sneaker. But the “suitcase” is HOT!
Cant do it the suitcase brings another level too em but the shoe itself isnt doint it for me
Lol no lie the case got me thinkin about coppin
I think i am going to switch my aj max orange with these, lol i am just looking for a reason to rock those max’s lol eventho they aren’t no heat but they are pretty cool. Regarding these silver joint, they belong in my storage room with that suit case. i haven’t bought any 1′s lately, i can’t even remember when was the last time….
whAT do you people even want the suitcase for????? wtf????
whAT do you people even want the suitcase for????? wtf????
actually when you think about it, theyre selling the briefcase, the shoes are free with the purchase…
may pick these up just to have them, any one know what retail will be?
jordan ones retail for like $120, with that suitcase…. like $180 lol JB aint stupid
A suitcase with a jumpman isn’t going to make me spend more then 200+ dollars for some 1′s!
Like I posted somewhere else, IF JB HAD PLANNED ON DROPPING THESE WITH THE SUITCASE, AND THIS NEWS WAS JUST TO TELL US THAT THEY’D SCRAPPED THE IDEA, AND THESE WOULD DROP IN A REGULAR BLACK BOX, PEOPLE’D BE CRYING ABOUT “MAN, WHY DON’T THEY EVER DO ANYTHING SPECIAL….WHY CAN’T WE HAVE THE DAMN SUITCASE BACK!?!?!” So, with that being said, I’ll take advantage of it and buy these….I love ones, I love silver suitcases lol, so I win…..
I still got the black/silver suitcase from my OG 17′s. These are a must have.
too much silver foil.
whats the retail on these ???? cuz they pretty fresh
– manee dhem junts seem like they qone bee uqly fha ah minute.. butt imma copp dhem immediately. haha. l m a o .
I don’t care if it came in a f-ing gucci suitcase, these are some uglyass 1s. But I’m gonna let it slide because of all the heat coming out in 2010, it’s ok jb, I forgive you : )
damn these are fresh
WHY THEY CANT PUT LIKE THE SPACE JAMS IN THE SUITCASE???? WHY THEY ALWAYS PUT UGLY ASS WACK SHOES WITH THE SUITCASE??? ONES ARE THE WORST JORDAN EVER CREATED BY FAR! THEY NEED 2 STOP BULSHITTEN AND PUT THEM SPACE JAMS IN THAT SUITCASE NOT THESE UGLY WACK ASS SHOES!!! I WANT THAT SUITCASE BUT I DONT WANT THEM UGLY SHOES. ONES SUCK! ID RATHER WEAR JUST SOCKS THEN THEM FUGLY ONES. ONES SUCK
? ones started this whole game….and people jock 11′sfor almost no good reason; Patent covered indian
moccasins w/ insta-yellow outsoles that look like hot garbage after a good month of wear. Keep em.
aw man soo freshh hopefully goin to cop..
A true jordanhead has to have atleast one pair of retro one’s. These are fire!
J.NY^^^^ I most definitely feel you brother….it look like they just turn the best looking 1(IMO) and just made it girly with that (excuse my language)bullshit ass foil glitter glove trash material and now people just want it get it cuz of the bullshit ass suitcase…..The 01 release were my favorite pair of Js ever and they decide to do this bs!!! jb just trying to pull a buck out of any one which is working but who knows till when because people will realize it jb will go broke…Just stop with your gay shit JB and put the original effort you put back then in the sneaks we love…make it worth buying and dont butter us with gay ass accesories we dont need like a punk ass SUITCASE perhaps…..I rather have a good quality shoe anyday better than nice box or accesories…..shoes are meant to be WORN!!!!!
I CAN DEFINETLY USE A NICE SUIT CASE IMA COPP THESE
These lookn like dunks make me sad hope they don’t start going this route
i hope they make a matching sliver vest to go with it!
these are a good set to go with the jordan family and the suitcase just make it all better im goin to cop pronto
