Where to Buy the Air Jordan 1 ‘Prototype’

Back in June, we got a look at one of the most unique Air Jordan 1s we’ve seen in a minute. Dubbed the ‘Prototype’, it’s now gearing up for its highly-anticipated release.

This new take on Michael Jordan’s first signature silhouette takes inspiration from the AJ1 ‘Switch’ that started to do the rounds last year. It allows wearers the option to rock their Jays either with a Low or High look but, unlike the Switch, this change is permanent! Small perforations have been added around the ankle allowing for the top part to be sliced off, exposing brightly-coloured orange foam.

The colour scheme is also pretty tasty, rocking subtle black, silver and brown hues on a white base, elevated with blue hits along the ankle collar. The premium leather and nubuck overlays – plus mini Swoosh on the toe box – add in some extra spice.

If you dig chopping and changing your sneakers, then the Air Jordan 1 ‘Prototype’ is for you! Head down below to peruse a bunch of the retailers that will have pairs available to cop. The SNKRS drop will be on September 25, but most of the other retailers will close their raffles on September 10.

Good luck!
