Jared Ebanks Thanks to a conscious kick-start by Virgil Abloh last winter, the Air Jordan 2 has enjoyed a raucous revitalization in conjunction with its 35th anniversary this year. While Jordan’s second signature silhouette is set to continue its increased slate of releases throughout the new year, the Bruce Kilgore design is returning to its “Chicago” roots for the first time since 2004.
Producing a much more accurate composition compared to mid 2000’s counterpart, the faux lizard skin side panel, OG Nike Air logo and winged insignias immediately harken to Jordan’s career-high year of averaging 37.1 points per game. Standing alone as the only iconic colorway throughout 2022 to return amongst a trove of collaborative propositions, seldom “Varsity Red” accents and contrasting jet-black embellishments coordinate with the tongue and ankle collar’s resized height for a tried-and-true homage to the silhouette’s OG configuration.
Set to release tomorrow, December 30th in full family sizing for a retail price of $200, enjoy one last look at the upcoming Air Jordan 2 OG “Chicago” below alongside our accompanying store list.
