One such pair is a low-top version of 2011's iconic "Banned" colorway. After being discussed as a rumor back in July, we now have a first look at the much-anticipated sneaker, confirming that the "X" motif is back atop the heel of the sneaker, replacing the Air Jordan 1 Low OG's typical heel tab branding. Beyond recreating the "Bred" color scheme, the shoe also features new interior detailing, from "On September 15th, 1984 Nike created a revolutionary new basketball shoe," text at the sockliner to a "10.18.84" callout at the collar. While this pair is merely a sample, it is likely to represent the look of the final retail version of the pair.
