In Retrospect: Air Jordan 1 “Armed Forces” Pack

The instant classic Air Jordan Countdown Packs undoubtedly ruled 2008 in terms of Jordan Brand releases; however, the Air Jordan 1 “Armed Forces” Pack was one of the few non Air Jordan Countdown Pack releases that intrigued the entire sneaker community. Jordan Brand released to camouflage colored Air Jordan 1s, in limited numbers, to coincide with Memorial Day Weekend. Priced at $100 apiece, these pairs featured a Pearl White/Hay-Walnut and a Medium Brown/Urban HZ-Hay-Anthracite, respectively.

Did you purchase one of the sneakers in the Air Jordan 1 “Armed Forces” Pack, and was it worth the money you paid for it? If not, are you wishing you would have snagged them last year? Was this one of your favorite Air Jordan Retro releases of 2008? Let us know your thoughts on the Air Jordan 1 “Armed Forces” Pack in the comment section below!

In Retrospect: Air Jordan 9 White/Black-University Blue

The Air Jordan 6 dominated the first half of 2010; however, Jordan Brand sprinkled a ton of Air Jordan 9 releases throughout the summer and fall. One of the first Air Jordan 9 releases of 2010 came in the form of this White/Black-University Blue pair. When photos first released, many thought this was the return of the classic “Powder Blue” Air Jordan 9. Yet, with closer looks at this shoe, one could see a big difference in blues between the “Powder Blue” Air Jordan 9 and this retro. Nevertheless, it was still a definite purchase for many.

Did you purchase the Air Jordan 9 White/Black-University Blue, and was it worth the money you paid for it? If not, are you wishing you would have snagged them last year? How does this colorway rank amongst the other Air Jordan 9 releases in 2010 (“Bin 23”, “Silver Anniversary”)? Lastly, was this one of your favorite Air Jordan Retro releases of 2010? Let us know your thoughts on the Air Jordan 9 White/Black-University Blue in the comment section below!
