After one sneaker fanatic put up an unreleased version of [Nike's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-toe-colorway) Air Jordan 1 'Bred Toe' online for $10,000 USD last year, the brand decided to officially release the highly sought after model.

The unique release combines two Air Jordan 1 silhouettes, and combines hues of white, black, and red on the uppers and soles. Nike's [Swoosh](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/legend-light-brown) logo and Air Jordan branding are featured in a statement fashion on the sneakers in black.

With this, the sneakers have a classic appeal to them, which is what's caused so many sneakerheads to anticipate their release. As the Air Jordan 1 Bred Toe is made from [premium leather](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fear-colorway-1), the vivid colorway is made to last, along with the rest of the sneakers.
