The Air Jordan 1 Hi ’85 “Bred” Is Already A Frontrunner For 2025’s Best Sneaker

Even if the model has tumbled since its industry-leading status around the pandemic, there’s nothing more sacred in sneakers than an OG Air Jordan 1. It’s that enduring fact that made the original announcement of the Air Jordan 1 “Bred” for 2025 so monumental, a capper amid a slew of incredibly significant releases queued up for next year. While it still seems far away at this juncture, the release is only becoming more tangible, with retailer images of that pair just surfacing.

We know it, we love it, so it shouldn’t take these new images to confirm the classic color-blocking of the Air Jordan 1 “Bred.” However, it does reveal that the reported information about utilizing the OG-minded ’85 cut is, in fact, accurate. Check the higher collar, reduced Wings logo, and modified Swoosh for proof. While it would’ve been hard to kick back or remove this release as its February date nears closer, tangible in-hand shots should be a relief for those looking forward to this drop amid Jordan cancellations and Jordan delays abound.

Standing as the crown jewel of the Jordan 1 (and Air Jordan as a whole) 40th anniversary, this will mark the first earnest release of the once-banned colorway in nearly a decade. Though modified editions in satin and patent leather offered alternatives, there’s simply no substitute for the originals — especially with the Jumpman aiming to replicate it extra faithfully in 2025.

The Air Jordan 1 High ’85 “Bred” is currently slated for release in February 2025, reportedly landing during All-Star weekend. Retail remains at $250.
