Ahead of the Air Jordan 1 “Banned” sneaker’s remastered return at the start of September comes the Air Jordan 1 “Pay To Play” T-Shirt that’s inspired by the kicks. As the story goes, the original “Bred” Air Jordan 1 colorway which released in 1985 cost Nike $5,000 for violating the NBA’s uniform code when Michael Jordan wore them on the court regardless of the rules. These tees take it back to that very day when MJ wore the shoes and Nike paid the price with a pixelated graphic that blurs out the iconic colorway alongside the date 10.18.84. Check out the shirt below that’s available in time for the storied sneaker’s return at Nike.com.
