Here’s what resellers and potential buyers can expect from the “Fearless” AJ1.
Jordan Brand will be releasing an exclusive patent leather “Fearless” Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG this Saturday inspired by MJ’s UNC days as well as his career with the Chicago Bulls. The special edition 1s, priced at $160, are ficially slated to launch on November 2 but a number sizes have already been sold on StockX, giving resellers and potential buyers an idea the marketplace ahead the drop.
As it turns out, the Chicago x UNC mashup can be had right now for under $225 in several different sizes including 10.5, 11 and 12. Sure, that’s more than the retail price but not by a wide margin, and we’d expect sales to hover in that range, or even drop further, after the release.
To put that in perspective, the traditional “Chicago” Air Jordan 1 carries an average resale price $750, while the “UNC” Air Jordan 1 goes for roughly $370. Take a look at the StockX data, and judge for yourself if combining the two classic colorways makes for a more valuable sneaker.
The “Fearless” 1s are built on a white upper, with Varsity Red and Carolina Blue overlays dividing the silhouette in half. Meanwhile, black handles the Nike swoosh and wings logo, as well as the tongue, laces, ankle collar and inner lining. As a nod to the 10-year anniversary MJ’s Hall Fame induction speech, the kicks also feature one MJ’s quotes that reads, “Limits, like fear, are ten just an illusion,” with a line through the word “FEAR,” hence the sneaker’s “Fearless” moniker.
