Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG Taxi (TD)

Iconic colorway in kids' sizing

The Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG "Taxi" (TD) is a version of one of the most recognizable Jordan Brand models, designed for the youngest sneakerheads. The upper is made of genuine leather, and the color layout mirrors the adult original: a black-and-cream base with contrasting yellow panels that give the colorway its name. The Wings logo sits on the collar, and the Nike Air branding is on the tongue—exactly the details you expect from an OG release. The outsole is made of rubber, and the construction is soft, without rigid reinforcements that would hinder a child's walking.

How to choose the right size for a child

Sizes range from 17 to 27, covering everything from first steps to preschool age. The easiest way is to measure the foot in the evening when it’s at its fullest: have your child stand on a piece of paper, trace their foot, measure the distance from the heel to the longest toe, and compare the result with the size guide. A buffer of one centimeter is perfectly sufficient. It can be tempting to buy shoes two sizes too big, but with a high-top design, the child will start dragging their feet and scuffing the toe, causing the pair to wear out faster than the foot can grow into them.

How to style them

The high-top 1s in kids' sizing work just like the adult version: they look best with pants that end above the collar, such as joggers with elastic cuffs, cropped jeans, or leggings. The yellow panels are bold enough to be the only strong color in an outfit, while the rest can remain black or cream. We have more pairs in this scale in our kids' Air Jordan shoes section and in our wider collection of all kids' shoes, and this model has also been included in our Cactus Jack selection.

We check every pair

Before listing, we verify the box, product code, stitching, glue, and outsole. We do not sell replicas, and with kids' shoes, this is also important for how the pair will hold up to daily running. You have 14 days to return your purchase, with the return shipping costs covered by the buyer—details can be found in our return policy.
