Jordan Brand has given the world hundreds of colorways of the Jordan 1, with past releases often inspiring new renditions. As we look forward to new drops, including the Reimagined Black Toe and Reimagined UNC, the label will continue to remix classic colorways in new ways. Here, the iconic Bred Toe colorway gets a Ruby makeover.
With the Jordan 1 (and Jordan Brand as a whole) celebrating its 40th birthday, JB honored this occasion with inspiration from the gemstone traditionally used for 40th anniversaries — ruby. Distressed metallic varsity red leather is placed along the toebox, collar overlay, and heel overlay, contrasting with the smooth leather on the rest of the upper. Classic Black Toe colorblocking is seen, with white leather appearing on the midfoot and black leather landing on the mudguard, Swoosh, and collar underlay.
