When the original Air Jordan 1 dropped in 1985 it was a monumental success, so much so that after the initial Air Jordan 1 ‘Banned’ pair gave way to a pair including the then NBA required white upper, Jordan Brand decided to branch out and release an Air Jordan 1 Metallic Series. While these never saw the court and didn’t necessarily sell as well, they came in a variety of enticing colorways all featuring an all white upper with a metallic swoosh and wings logo. But because of the nature of metallic paint – it cracks and peels easily – very few original pairs have survived in a respectable condition. But today we see an original pair of the Air Jordan 1 ‘White/Metallic Blue’ that literally still shines. View more images of this vintage find after the jump and head over to eBay and pick them up today from prettyollie.
