Air Jordans have become one of the most iconic basketball shoes to date. Despite almost never making it off the ground (the Air Jordan 1 was actually banned by the NBA in the ’80s because it featured “non-regulation” colors), the series, which honors famed ball player Michael Jordan, has grown to include 12 different models with appeal even beyond the courts. In fact, countless celebrities like rapper A$AP Rocky and model Bella Hadid consider them street-style favorites.

In addition to new releases and special collaborations, Nike (who owns the Jordan brand) also frequently updates its classic Air Jordan silhouettes in new colorways, with offerings debuting each month on the SNEAKRS app.
