While Air Jordan 1s may be one of the most popular Jordan sneakers on the block, there are plenty of other shoes — Jumpman kicks — that can rev up your wardrobe just the same. Here are some of our favorite alternatives to the Jordan 1.
p>These kicks celebrate the legendary career of His Airness, Michael Jordan. To create them, the Jumpman brand brought together key features from each shoe MJ wore during his championship series. The Jordan 6 Rings shoes offer premium details with a lightweight feel, complete with Zoom Air cushioning to deliver that top-notch underfoot response. Bonus: Its aesthetics provide the versatility to stand out on the court, at the club and anywhere in between.
Referencing both the AJ 11 and AJ 12, the Jordan Jumpman Two Trey, which garners its name from MJ’s personalized license plates, celebrates Jordan’s reign in Chi-town. The high-quality leather uppers and Air-cushioned soles unite with on-court styles from Mike’s championship years. And to ensure you’re comfortable all day long in this Jordan 1 alternative, whether on the court or running errands, the Jumpman brand incorporated a padded collar with fabric lining, a foam midsole and a rubber outsole with herringbone traction at the forefoot.
Chatting with friends on Discord or streaming on Twitch? Sit back and pew pew zombies in a pair of skinny jeans with Jordans, like the “Lucky” Air Jordan 3 Retros. Skinny denim and crew-length socks allow the retro Air Jordan silhouette to take center stage. Or go with a classic Air Jordan 13 with skinny jeans that skim the top of the mid cut shoe.
Another alternative to the Jordan 1 with a one-of-a-kind style? Sure, most Jordans offer this, but the Jordan Dub Zero brings a whole new element to the table with its laser-etched art on the upper. Though the AJ 1 is recognizable to any sneakerhead, some could argue that the Jordan Dub Zero is just as eye-catching. Plus, these kicks feature the signature visible Air unit in the sole and a standout 3D Jordan logo on the back.
While the AJ 1 is known for its vintage basketball aesthetic, the Air Jordan 12 Retro brings a more sleek and structured look, with premium leather panels and bold colorblocking. The “White and Game Royal” colorway keeps things clean and classic, offering a fresh mix of white and deep blue that’s just as versatile as an AJ 1. Comfort-wise, the AJ 12 Retro steps it up with full-length Zoom Air cushioning, making it an ideal choice for all-day wear.
Michael Jordan began his career fresh off the courts of UNC. The Air Jordan 11 Retro “Legend Blue” relies on a Tar Heels colorway for a clean, powdery finish. Its classic high cut design, patent leather upper, icy blue outsole and black sockliner and heel give this sneaker an elevated, luxe look that rivals any Air Jordan 1.
So you want a pair of shoes that look like Jordans, but you’re on the search for another new-to-you brand. We got you. If you want good Nike high tops, go with the Court Vision, Court Borough or Dunks, which gives Jumpman vibes in the best way. For adidas that look like Jordans, try the Forums.
