A new standard for the AJ1’s Retro business has been established. With the most accurate replication of the original 1985 models, the Air Jordan 1 High ’85 rewrote the book on Retro by delivering true materials, shape, dimensions, and any other detail that Jordan fanatics nit-pick over. February’s release of the “Bred” colorway essentially restarted the High ’85 line, and the good news is , there’s more to come.
A first look at the Air Jordan 1 High ’85 “Chicago” has been revealed by artist Juworkingonprojects as it seems that Jordan Brand is seeding out pairs way in advance to its inner circle of creative partners and family members. Julian Gaines has done projects with the Jumpman over the years, even dropping his own Nike collaboration back in 2018.
In August of 2024, a future release of the Air Jordan 1 High ’85 “Chicago” made news. Those rumors were squashed rather quickly. According to @mrunloved1s, these are not dropping anytime soon, nor is the Air Jordan 1 High ’85 “Royal” that OG Chase B posted some weeks ago.
For now, enjoy a first look, wipe the drool off, and stay tuned for updates on our Jordan Release Dates page. You can distract yourself by entering raffles for the Nigel Sylvester Brick By Brick Jordan 4 as well as the Nike SB Air Jordan 4 “Navy”.
