The Air Jordan 1 low debuted in 1985 alongside the Air Jordan 1 High as the first low-top signature sneaker developed by Nike for Michael Jordan. The Peter Moore designed sneaker featured a simple Nike Dunk inspired design that incorporated the Nike Swoosh and the Jordan Wings logo and featured Nike Air.

The Air Jordan 1 Low originally released in several colourways that mirrored the High releases which included Bulls inspired and metallic colourways. The Air Jordan 1 Low returned in the 2000s and has seen several retro releases since.

The "Vintage Grey" Mens colourway features a cool grey and white leather upper, closely mirroring the popular "Wolf Grey" colourway. The midsole features a pre-yellowed vintage effect, adding to the aesthetic of the sneaker.
