5 best Red Nike Air Jordans of 2022

Nike first collaborated with Michael Jordan back in 1985. Since then, the dynamic duo has managed to create a full-fledged sneaker line, which is currently on its 37th model and has achieved enormous pop-culture relevance. However, one of the major features that has become the marker of the Jordan label is its association with the red color, which has also served as one of the main hues for Michael Jordan's team Chicago Bulls.

Red has been a prominent color in the history of the Jordan label as the debuting sneaker, dubbed the Air Jordan 1 Bred in 1985, was also an iteration of the same colorway. This was cleverly named with Black and Red's amalgamation.

Interestingly, Nike and Michael Jordan's eponymous label has continued to give sneakerheads multiple iterations of red hues over the years that sell out almost immediately upon release. Moreover, fans have always been most enthusiastic about the news of red sneakers hitting the racks, which is why Sportskeeda has compiled a list of the five best Red Nike Air Jordans released this year.
