Part 1 of 3: Choosing the right Jordans

1. Choose your Jordans based on the occasion. The sheer number of Jordans styles and colors to choose from makes your options almost limitless. One of the first ways to narrow down your choice is to pick a pair based on the occasion you're wearing them for.
   • If you plan to play a game of basketball and would like to wear Jordans, choose a pair of high boots. Those shoes cover your ankles and thus protect them against injuries. To make sure you are fully protected from injury, you should tie the shoes all the way to the top.
   • Jordans are also popular as casual shoes. Both low and high Jordans can be worn with jeans or shorts, and even regular skirts or dresses.
2. Choose your Jordans according to your personal preference. There are over 100 options to choose from when it comes to Air Jordans. Choosing which shoe to wear comes down to what you like or dislike, and which colors you prefer.
   • If you prefer a classic or original style, you can opt for the first pair of Jordans ever released: the Air Jordan I. In addition, explore the brand's numbered series, including Air Jordan I to Air Jordan XX3.
   • Take a look at the retro Air Jordans, which are now gaining in popularity. Also look at the different silhouettes of the shoe to see which style you prefer. Women prefer the silhouette of the Air Jordan III for its softer, rounded shape.
   • View the collections of the Air Jordan special editions, reissues, vintage collectibles and hybrids of various Jordan models.
3. Choose your Jordans based on the price. Air Jordans are known for being quite expensive. Some people are willing and able to put down hundreds of dollars for an exclusive pair. If you are on a budget, price will be an important factor in your decision. It's also a handy way to narrow down your selection of Jordans to choose from.

Part 2 of 3: Wearing jordans

1. Make your Jordans the center of your outfit. Jordans are meant to portray a style. They don't have to match what you have in your closet completely. The versatile Jordans models allow you to dress up from the feet, which means you can choose the rest of your clothes depending on the shoe and highlight its features.
2. Match your Jordans with slim jeans that suit your body type and show off your shoes. It is best to wear Jordans under slim jeans, to make your Jordans stand out. It is not recommended to wear baggy jeans with Jordans as they cover the shoe and make it less noticeable. Easy-fitting, slim jeans provide a better fit for men. Tight jeans are suitable for women.
   • It is best to choose a pair of jeans that go well with your Jordans. Dark blue pants work well because the colors of your shoes stand out against the dark denim.
   • Jordans can also be paired with different shades and prints of cargo pants and shorts. Depending on the color and style of your shoe, you can experiment with different, and even boldly colored pants. You can also wear camouflage or floral prints.
   • Both low and high Jordans can also be worn well by women who wear shorts or casual dress.
3. Wear low socks in your Jordans. A pair of low neutral colored socks that fit around your ankles will go well with your Jordans, especially if you're wearing low shoes. Jordans are best worn when they can stand out. Avoid wearing a distracting pair of patterned socks, or a pair of long socks that rise above your ankle and distract from your shoes.
4. Tuck your jeans into your shoes. Jordans are meant for showing off. If you wear jeans, it is better not to let the legs hang over your shoes. You can do this by tucking the legs into your shoes and pulling the tongue of the shoe upward.
5. Make sure you have the right color combination with your Jordans. Accentuate your Jordans by combining colors from your outfit with your shoes. Jordans are meant to be the centerpiece of your outfit. Wearing too many bright colors can distract your Jordans.
   • For example, if you want to see the red finish of your Jordans in your clothes, it is best to add a touch of red to your outfit. You can wear a scarf with red patterns, a necklace or bracelet with a red pendant, or red-rimmed shades. You could supplement it with a red hat, backpack or bag. Or wear a shirt with a red print or pattern.
   • It's okay for your outfit to have large areas of subdued colors, such as gray, black, dark blue or white, or camouflage. Even if your shoes are the same neutral color as your outfit, it won't steal the attention of your Jordans. It will accentuate the shoe and make it a cohesive part of your outfit.
6. Choose a top with colors that go well with your outfit and shoes. Men can wear a T-shirt, shirt or sweatshirt. Women can wear the same thing, but have a few more options depending on their style. If they dress more feminine, they can wear a tank top, a high shirt, and even a dress. The colors in your top should accentuate your shoes, so choose neutral colors or tops with a few accents of bold colors in the print.

Part 3 of 3: Style outfits to match your Jordans

1. Match a sports outfit to high Jordans. Jordans are essentially athletic shoes, originally created for the basketball court. If you like to play basketball and want to make it clear that you know how to play before you even pick up a ball, wearing a pair of Jordans will help.
   • High Jordans are not only stylish, but they also serve the functional purpose of protecting your ankles while exercising. To keep your ankles fully protected and secure, you need to tie the shoes all the way down.
   • Wear shorts and a spacious sports shirt. Sportswear is usually made of a breathable fabric that keeps you from overheating during strenuous activity.
   • Select your actual size for your shirt and shorts. Men should not wear too big clothes and women should not be too tight. In addition to interfering with your performance, a poorly fitting outfit can also detract from the look of your Jordans.
2. Create a casual outfit with tailored jeans and high or low Jordans. Jordans worn off the field are best paired with casual outfits. If you wear jeans, make sure they are fitted. For men, your jeans should be tight and fitted. Women can wear relaxed and fitted jeans or skinny jeans.
   • Tuck your jeans into your shoes to keep your Jordans uncovered. Pull up the tongue of the shoe. And if you wear high Jordans, there is no need to tie them all the way to the top.
   • Combine your jeans and Jordans with a shirt that finishes it off. Choose a shirt that goes well with the rest of your clothes. Depending on the weather, you can choose a tailored V-neck with short or long sleeves, a shirt or a sweatshirt. Women can also opt for a tank top.
   • You can then combine your top with a loose-fitting jacket, such as a denim jacket, track jacket, camouflage jacket or leather jacket.
3. Create an outfit with shorts, cargo pants or slim-fit sweatpants for a softer fit. Jeans aren't the only type of pants you can wear with Jordans. There are alternatives. You can wear cargo pants or cargo shorts, shorts made of a different fabric and even tailored jogging pants. Women can also wear leggings.
   • Assemble the rest of your outfit as if you were wearing jeans. Since you're still dressing casually, you can pair many of the same outfit choices you would wear with jeans with softer pants.
4. Create a slightly more dressy outfit with your Jordans. For men, wearing anything resembling formal attire with Jordans just won't work. Women can put together a more neat outfit with Jordans because they have more style choices, such as plain dresses and skirts. They can choose between low or high Jordans. with a slim skirt or dress made of a softer material, such as cotton or polyester, or even leather.
5. Create different color combinations with your Jordans. The color combinations you choose to wear with your Jordans will make or break your outfit. Since Jordans should be the centerpiece of the outfit, it is better to coordinate the colors from below.
6. Wear neutral colored Jordans with an outfit that is mainly neutral. For example, if your Jordans are mostly white with a black finish, opt for black or gray jeans or shorts. Your top can be a mix of black and white, such as a striped shirt or a white shirt with black trim or a grayscale image, or it can be a neutral solid color.
7. Choose an outfit with a color scheme that matches Jordans who have a bright color along the edge, such as red, blue, or yellow. Choose a shade of blue jeans that best matches the color scheme of your Jordans. You can make the bright color in your Jordans the center of your outfit by choosing a top that is neutral in color, such as light gray or white. You can also opt for a neutral colored shirt with color flecks, such as a shirt with print in the same colors as your shoes.
8. Wear Jordans that consist mainly of bright colors with an outfit that is also bold in terms of color. This can be tricky if you are not good at combining contrasting colors or patterns. But if you have an eye for understanding color schemes, you can make a nice outfit. It is best to choose only one part of the outfit, besides your Jordans, that you would like to stand out. If you choose brightly colored pants or jeans, or pants that are embellished with a print that you love, go with a shirt in a solid, preferably neutral, color.

Tips

• Show your Jordans. Always keep your pants tucked into your shoes. Don't let your jeans hang over or cover your shoes.
• Let your Jordans be the center of your outfit. Dress in such a way that the shoe is not overshadowed by the dominant bright colors of your clothing and accessories.

Warnings

• Don't wear Jordans with formal attire. While Air Jordans have transcended the basketball court for which they were made as athletic shoes, they are not intended to be worn with formal attire, such as smart pants.
• Don't wear baggy jeans with Jordans. Keeping in mind that baggy jeans are no longer considered a fashion trend, they are also considered a fashion faux pas when worn with Jordans. The heavy denim fabric will hide the shoe's design, which is considered something that really can't be done with Jordans.
