Release update // Air Jordan 1 ‘Best Hand in the Game’ collection

A dream hand.

Honoring Michael Jordan’s biggest career achievements, the ‘Best Hand in the Game’ collection introduces four new takes on the Air Jordan I. The shoes combine soft suede, leather and traditional Air Jordan I Black Toe blocking. Each colorway represents the following unique milestones in MJ’s career.

Release update // 04.24.18

Both the Air Jordan 1 “Clay Green” and Air Jordan 1 “Blue Moon” are now expected to release on May 1 through Nike SNKRS. This combats earlier information that the pack would all drop on May 5th. A Nike SNKRS release also debunks the myth that each colorway would release in different international markets.

ALL-STAR APPEARANCES

For 14 years straight, MJ did more than just show up to the mid-season spectacular. He put on a show of his own — and earned three MVPs in the process. The Blue Moon colorway features a straight flush on the right insole.

FIVE MVP AWARDS

The Yellow Ochre colorway celebrates Jordan’s five Most Valuable Player awards with a royal flush on the shoe’s right insole.

SIX CHAMPIONSHIPS

MJ’s winning mindset shows through in the six-of-a-kind hand on the right insole of the Track Red colorway.

ALL THOSE AWARDS

Representing the sum of his awards and contributions to the game, the Clay Green colorway remembers Jordan’s full house of accomplishments: Offensive Player of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year, Championships and Hall of Fame induction.
