The wait is finally over. Nike has released its latest "Rare Air" Air Jordan sneakers, and you should probably hurry up and grab a pair if you like them before they sell out.
Nike is selling Air Jordan 1 High OG "Rare Air" men's shoes for $180. Available sizes at the time of publication range from men's 3.5 to 14 and women's five to 15.5. The colorway is called White/Neutral Grey/Deep Royal Blue/Black.
Nike says, "We all gotta start somewhere—even the greatest of all time. Things got crazy in the sneaker lab back in the day with imperfect AJ1 samples, incorrect logo placements, odd seams, and out-of-place packaging. 'Mistakes' turned into marks of rarity and unforgettable must-haves. We call that Rare Air."
Nike says, "From flawed to flawless, being the flyest is a process of trial and error. This AJ1 repurposes the imperfections found on early samples to turn the unexpected, archival moments into a modern design. One-off details like the Deep Royal Blue 'Nike Air' woven labels, 'Nike Air' Wings logo on the inside collar, and never-before-seen 'brush-off' Swoosh logos play up the lore of the original, while mis-match packaging adds an unforgettable aesthetic."
Buyers of previous Air Jordan 1 shoes have rated them 4.9 stars out of five.
"If you know the backstory of this iconic shoe, it's worth picking up!" says a reviewer.
"Best Jordan 1s I've ever had," says another.
Nike offers free shipping on orders of $75 or more. Nike members get free shipping on orders of $50 or more and free 60-day returns.

📸 With a hidden message: Inter unveil new home kit
Take a look behind the facade, let the boundaries between the visible and invisible blur: This is the message that Nike has taken to heart in designing the new home jersey for Inter Milan. The special feature of the shirt: The classic blue and black stripes form the word "INTER," which is subtly hidden in the pattern of the jersey and only becomes visible to viewers upon closer inspection. The club's logo, as well as the main sponsor and outfitter, are emblazoned on the jersey in a bright coral blue - a color that is meant to represent the new identity of the club. Advertisement The players themselves will take to the field in the new jersey during the Club World Cup, on the second matchday against Urawa Red Diamonds. How do you like the new home jersey? Let us know in the comments! This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇩🇪 here. 📸 Justin Setterfield - 2025 Getty Images

NBA Finals Features Unexpected Caitlin Clark Twist
NBA Finals Features Unexpected Caitlin Clark Twist originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Caitlin Clark has faithfully followed the Indiana Pacers' incredible run to the NBA Finals thus far. The Indiana Fever superstar has attended multiple home games at Gainbridge Fieldhouse throughout the postseason, and it would not be a surprise if she makes an appearance again once the series against the Oklahoma City Thunder shifts to Indianapolis for Games 3 and 4. Advertisement Clark, however, was not in Paycom Center in Oklahoma on Thursday for the series opener between these two championship-seeking sides. Despite her absence from the highly anticipated matchup, the reigning WNBA Rookie of the Year was still able to play a role in Game 1, albeit in a minor way. This is after Thunder guard Alex Caruso was seen wearing Clark's Nike Kobe 5 Proto "Indiana Fever" Player Edition for the first game of the series on Thursday night. Clark's "Indiana Fever" PE comes in midnight navy blue and features a yellow-red gradient fade on the Nike swoosh logo. The bright crimson red laces add a vivid contrast, as does the orange and yellow paneling on the heel. Advertisement Clark has worn this pair for a WNBA game, but the fact that it's made an appearance in the NBA Finals is definitely worth noting--especially since it was worn by a player on the opposing team. As of the moment, there is still no word on Clark's signature shoe with Nike. There has been a lot of anticipation from the fans, but so far, the sportswear giants have left her avid supporters to settle with her Kobe Proto PEs. Clark's signature shoe should come soon enough, and considering all the hype surrounding the 23-year-old, it would not be a surprise at all if those immediately sell out once they officially hit stands.
