Jordan Casual Shoes

Casual Jordan Shoes in the Mix

Six rings, a six-time Finals MVP, ten scoring titles, and so much more – it’s no question why Michael Jordan is unanimously known as the GOAT, or greatest of all time. Jordan was flying high dating back to his college days, and as soon as he stepped in the league, Jordan opted for Nike’s signature swoosh on his feet, with a slightly untraditional sneaker on his feet. Michael wanted a sneaker that was low to the ground, and something a little different in terms of design. It’s safe to say, the Air Jordan 1 delivered.

Debuting in black and red, his sneakers were an instant hit, just like MJ's game. With a low profile that hugged the hardwood, and an untraditionally non-white colorway, Jordan balled out in his black and red Jordan AJ1 sneakers. Otherwise known as the Bred colorway – meaning black and red – briefly put Jordan in the spotlight, but for his shoes this time. Jordan was fined for the color of his sneakers amidst a sea of white basketball shoes. He wore them anyway and Nike even ran an advertisement about the whole ordeal. Today, much thanks to this original silhouette, Jordan basketball shoes have reached legendary status nobody could have predicted at the time, only helping to catapult casual Jordan shoes into the forefront of sneaker culture today.

More Jordan, More Legendary

Jordan entered his first retirement in 1994, and with that came Nike’s first re-release of the Air Jordan 1 to celebrate 10 years since its initial drop. This sneaker debut marks the first time a Jordan sneaker went “retro” and was brought back into production, a trend that has become ever popular today not just among Jordan fans, but sneakers fans everywhere. This same original Air Jordan 1 now stocks shelves in numerous colorways and even in a low-top silhouette, just one example of the long line of Jordan casual shoes to choose from. With time-tested streetwear status, Jordan sneakers are often worn as casual shoes off the hardwood, made to wear anywhere. Casual Jordans are available in sizing ranging from toddler to men’s sizing so everyone can get fitted, with Jordan t-shirts and shorts available to complete any look right here at Foot Locker.
