The “Green Glow” Air Jordan 1 Has More History Than You Think

At first glance, the “Green Glow” Air Jordan 1 High OG looks like a great alternative to 2017’s ultra-limited “Igloo” colorway that dropped during Art Basel. The pair was limited to 500 pairs and released alongside an equally rare “Rust Pink” makeup. 2017 was the beginning of the remarkable Air Jordan 1 run that lasted more than half a decade and only recently started slowing down. If you weren’t lucky enough to get a pair of the “Igloo” released exclusively via Social Status on a Yatch and don’t want to pay thousands of dollars for a pair, this “Green Glow” colorway is the perfect consolation prize.

In addition to being cousins to the “Igloo” pair, this AJ1 continues the legacy of the popular “Green Glow” colorway, which began with the Air Jordan 4 in 2013 and recently resurgenceed with the Air Jordan 3. The “Green Glow” is one of those non-OG colorways that developed an affinity from sneakerheads, so seeing it return on more silhouettes is a welcomed sight. The Air Jordan 1 “Green Glow” releases on April 20 at 7 AM PST for $180.

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
