Even though Jordan Brand has been around for 40 years, we’ve never seen anything quite like the Air Jordan 1 Brooklyn Boot Baroque Brown W. A runway-ready remix of Michael Jordan’s first signature shoe, this one definitely isn’t for the faint of heart.
When this stomping silhouette was first unveiled at the end of 2023, the Jumpman community wasn’t really sure what to make of it. Purists hated it, critics questioned it, and sneaker forums endlessly debated it. But two years on, the Brooklyn Boot has carved out a loyal following of fashion-forward fans. In a sneaker world oversaturated with safe retros and predictable collabs, people are hungry for something unique – and this model delivers exactly that.
