Updated April 15th, 2024: Initially reported for a Holiday 2024 release, the Air Jordan 1 Low ’85 “Dark Mocha” has been removed from the release calendar per @zsneakerheadz. We’ll provide the new release date as soon as it emerges.

Updated February 20th, 2024: An updated mock-up (above) shared by @zsneakerheadz reveals an accurate depiction of the upcoming Air Jordan 1 Low ’85 “Dark Mocha”.

Who knew a forgotten SBs from 2007 would have such an impact on sneakers in the future? Travis Scott’s reference of the “Trail End Brown” SB Dunks led to the creation of his first-ever Air Jordan 1 collaboration, further catapulting the popularity of brown sneakers in the 2020. The Air Jordan 1 “Mocha” of 2020 was the biggest beneficiary of that trend, and it’s impact is still felt today.

This Holiday 2024 season, Jordan Brand will be referencing the brown “Dark Mocha” shade once again on their true-to-the-original Air Jordan 1 Low. Arriving in a White/Dark Mocha colorway, this mock-up by @zsneakerheadz/Sneaker Files suggests a likely possibility of this planned release.

No other details are known, so stay tuned for all relevant updates on our Air Jordan Release Dates page as we await the launch in the final quarter of the year.
