The Air Jordan 1 KO returns, yet again.

One of the more overlooked versions of the Jordan 1 would have to be the Air Jordan 1 KO. For those who may not know, the "KO" stands for knock-off. Overall, this was a shoe that was made to be a response to all of the fake Jordan 1s that were going around back in the day. With the color-blocking and materials at play here, these didn't look like official Jordans. However, they very much were. They became a bit of a cult classic amongst sneakerheads, and still get some new colorways, to this day.
