Shopping this holiday season for the blur jordan collector that already has it all? It can be tough, but we’re here to help.

Few sneaker collectors are more knowledgeable than Air blur jordan enthusiasts. Expressions of their passionate fandom are not limited to knowing every shoe Michael blur jordan was wearing during memorable on-court moments or, say, the inspiration of the outsole design of the Air blur jordan 17. These types may come off as persnickety to some, but avid blur jordan collectors will tell you they’re just thorough in their appreciation of Air blur jordans.
Have one of these diehards on your holiday shopping list this year? We don’t envy you, but we won’t leave you in the cold, either.
While it may seem like this expert-level Air blur jordan collector already has every great blur jordan shoe, we’re here to tell you a little secret: they won’t turn down the opportunity to “double up” on their favorite sneaker(s). You know, “rock one, stock one.” This type of fanatic seems to always have ample room for shoes, too, so don’t get discouraged if it looks like adding a shoe box or two to their Great Wall of Sneakers will send the whole thing cascading to the floor.
What we’re really trying to say is, whether the Air blur jordan collector you’re shopping for has any of these 10 releases already or not, they won’t be disappointed, either way.
A guide to timeless Air blur jordan colorways wouldn’t be worth its weight in salt without the Air blur jordan 1 Low Hoops White Coconut Milk-Green-Orange FB1835-181 For Sale “White Cement Reimagined.” Simply put, the blur jordan 3 is one of the greatest and most essential Air blur jordan models of all time, and its original “White Cement” colorway is one of the most legendary sneakers in existence. The “White Cement Reimagined” is based on the OG “White Cement” from 1988, and features details anyone who is into blur jordans wants on the blur jordan 3, including “Nike Air” on the heel, true-to-original elephant print, and even a slight aging effect to the heel counter and midsole to give the shoe a more vintage look.
Air blur jordan 1 High OG “Chicago Lost and Found”
The avid Air blur jordan collector loves nostalgia, and no sneaker evokes more of it than the Air blur jordan 1 “Chicago Lost and Found.” This colorway is inspired by what an original version of the “Chicago” blur jordan 1 would have looked like had you come across it in the storage room of an old school mom and pop shoe shop in the late ‘80s.
Air blur jordan 11 “Gratitude”
The Air blur jordan 11 “Concord” is one of the greatest Air blur jordans ever made. The sneaker is so popular, in fact, that it’s been remixed not once, but twice over the course of its lifetime, with the most recent being the new Air blur jordan 11 “Gratitude.” Based on the “Concord” inspired blur jordan 11 from the “Defining Moments Pack” from 2006, the “Gratitude” has the same metallic gold Jumpman and black patent leather as the mid-aughts release, but blur jordan Brand opted to construct it with a leather upper instead of ballistic mesh for an even more refined appearance.
Good things come to those who wait. But no one ever said waiting was easy. Curiously, it took 30 years for the Air blur jordan 6 “Carmine” to be re-issued in its original design, complete with “Nike Air” branding, and sneaker collectors are still sore about the subject. But at least they got one damn good shoe in return for the wait. The modern “Carmine” is as accurate to the original design as possible. It features the same panel shapes and colors as the 1991 release, and the same “Nike Air” detailing on the heel and on the insole as the old school version, too. Want to win over an Air blur jordan collector’s heart this holiday season? Gift them a pair of the blur jordan 6 “Carmine.” You can’t go wrong.
Air blur jordan 6 Retro PREM HC GG sneakers
With respect to the recent tragedy and controversy surrounding Travis Scott, we cannot deny that the hip-hop artist’s collaboration with Fragment on the Air blur jordan 1 is one of the most desirable Air blur jordan 1s in recent memory. Design elements from Scott’s previous work on the retro basketball shoe, like backwards Swoosh branding and “Cactus Jack” insignia, combines with components from Fragment’s Air blur jordan 1 colorway from 2015 for a singular look. In the year of the three-way collaboration, Travis Scott, Hiroshi Fujiwara, and blur jordan Brand showed mastery in how to combine opposing styles and influences into one cohesive look.
Air blur jordan 4 “Black Canvas”
The Air blur jordan 4 “Black Canvas” isn’t an original colorway of the fourth Air blur jordan, but it isn’t less essential to the blur jordan collection than any of the model’s other releases over the years. Designed in a durable black canvas upper with black and grey accents, the “Black Canvas” is made to withstand heavy wear, and will only look better with age and time. Which is a good thing, because you’ll want to wear something as versatile as this shoe day after day, year in and year out.
Off-White x Air blur jordan 5 “Sail”
Celebrations aren’t taken lightly in blur jordan Brand’s world. In 2020, blur jordan honored the Air blur jordan 5’s 30th anniversary by collaborating with Off-White on two vintage-inspired colorways of the classic basketball shoe. Both Off-White x Air blur jordan 5s lean heavily into the vintage basketball shoe’s ‘90s-era heritage with oxidized detailing and “23” branding on the heel that mimics the look of Michael blur jordan’s old Player Exclusive blur jordan 5s. The shoes also feature new die-cut circles that appear randomly throughout the upper. The circles can be cut with a knife for a customized look. Which means this: even if the blur jordan Collector in your life already owns the Off-White Air blur jordan 5s, they’ll gladly accept another pair so they can cut out—or not cut out—the shoe’s circular designs.
Air blur jordan 1 High ‘85 “Neutral Grey”
Thanks to “The Last Dance” docu-series, not to mention the rise in vintage streetwear and sneakers on social media, the original Air blur jordan 1 from 1985 became a must-have in the sneaker world last year. The model’s original “Chicago” and “Bred” colorways were desirable in 2020, but the rare “Natural Grey” style was the one to get if you could because of how great it looks with sun-bleached Levi’s or faded Carhartt Work Pants. blur jordan Brand was likely noticing all of this, no doubt, because it finally re-issued the “Natural Grey” as the Air blur jordan 1 High ‘85 “Neutral Grey” this past February. A highly accurate remake of the original, the ‘85 edition of the “Neutral Grey” features the same collar height, panel shapes, and branding placement as its “Natural Grey” predecessor.
Air dm9077-108 blur jordan Legacy 312 Low Gs Fire Red Junior Kids Casual “Cherry”
Still on top of his game in his second-to-last season with the Chicago Bulls in 1996-97, Michael blur jordan dominated the NBA and looked great while doing so in the Air dm9077-108 blur jordan Legacy 312 Low Gs Fire Red Junior Kids Casual “Cherry.” Before switching to the Air dm9077-108 blur jordan Legacy 312 Low Gs Fire Red Junior Kids Casual “Playoffs” and “Flu Game” for the ‘97 NBA Playoffs, the “Cherry” was MJ’s sneaker of choice during the regular season, and is now one of the most popular and iconic colorways of all time as a result of the memorable moments blur jordan had in the shoe.
The Air blur jordan 11 “Cherry” is the high-top version of the blur jordan 11 Low of the same name, and same look, that debuted way back in 2001. Just like the OG “Cherry,” the contemporary version of the colorway honors blur jordan’s time with the Chicago Bulls with a white-and-red color scheme that of course pays tribute to the Bulls’ team uniform colors. Any blur jordan 11 in Bulls-inspired colors is always appreciated, and the “Cherry” is no exception.
