Nike, the pinnacle of athletic footwear, has been around for over 55 years, so they have no doubt released their fair share of colorways. Any color, combination, and shade you can think of, I’m sure they have a shoe for that. Thanks to Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls, red has been one of the most popular colors since 1985 when the Jordan 1 Breds released. Sure, the breds are a great colorway, but I don’t think there is a better colorway than white and red when it comes to Nike sneakers.
Because red and white is such a great colorway and mimics one of the best sneakers of all time – the Jordan 1 Chicago. I decided to make a list of the best red and white Nike shoes you can add to your collection today. Whatever your style, budget, or purpose is. I’ve made sure I added a shoe to this list for everyone’s wardrobe.
Jordan 1 Retro Chicago
This is the shoe that started it all. In 1984 this sneaker captivated the world. This sneaker merged the two styles of athletic and streetwear together to make one of the most popular shoes of all time. Even though this isn’t the original from 1984, it still has all the features you would find on the original pair. It doesn’t have a 1984 price of $64.99 though as a pair in the aftermarket can fetch up to $2,000 or more.
Nike Dunk High Championship White & Red
These dunks are similar to those that were released in the 1980s. The Nike dunk high is a traditional-looking sneaker that pairs well with almost any style, plus the classic red and white colorway complements any outfit.
Nike SB Dunk Low Supreme Jewel
This sneaker is a calling for all skaters or anyone who just wants a solid streetwear sneaker. Combining a skate shoe with a basketball aesthetic this SB dunk is for sure a classic. Supreme is also not new to collaborations, this is one of their multiple collabs with the sneaker heavyweight Nike.
Nike Air Force 1 Low ‘07 Gym Red
One of the most popular sneaker silhouettes of all time is the Nike Air Force 1. The Air Force 1 is one of those sneakers that you can find in almost every single colorway possible. For this pair, we have a classic gym red and white combination.
Nike Air Presto University Red
The Nike Air Presto is not only a comfortable shoe but also a great shoe for athletic performance. Its stretchy material makes it a sock-like shoe that has a form-fitting feature. Perfect for morning runs or a casual day at the office.
Nike Blazer Mid 77’ Vintage
A shoe that looks just as good now as it did in the 70s, the Nike Blazer 77’ is a classic that still looks great by today’s standards. Match these with shorts for the perfect summer shoes or a pair of tailored trousers for a nice casual look for Friday office days.
Nike Dunk Low Championship Red
If high tops are not your style then these Nike Dunks Lows are perfect for you. The white makes for a clean-looking sneaker with the added pop of red for a splash of color. Inspired by the 80s style, these sneakers have never looked so good.
Summary
Red and White will always be a classic color when combined for any Nike sneaker. Ranging from the OG Jordan 1 Chicagos to the retroed yet trendy Nike Dunks. Grab yourself a pair of these shoes and wear them with confidence, which you may not even need with the number of compliments you will get.
