A Sneak Peek at the Air Jordan 1 High ’85 “Chicago"

The Air Jordan 1 High ’85 has set a new benchmark for retro sneaker releases, capturing the essence of the original 1985 model with remarkable precision. From materials to shape, dimensions, and even the smallest details that hardcore Jordan fans obsess over, this silhouette redefines what a Retro release can be.

February’s launch of the iconic “Bred” colourway reinvigorated the High ’85 line, and the excitement doesn’t stop there; there’s more on the horizon.

Recently, artist Juworkingonprojects shared a first look at the Air Jordan 1 High ’85 “Chicago”, sparking speculation about a potential release. Jordan Brand appears to be distributing early pairs to its inner circle of creatives and family members, fueling anticipation among sneaker enthusiasts.

Although rumours had circulated about a 2025 release, they were quickly debunked. According to sneaker insider @mrunloved1s, neither the “Chicago” nor the “Royal” High ’85 teased by OG Chase B weeks ago are expected to drop anytime soon.

Despite the uncertainty, hope remains high among fans. The appearance of the “Chicago” pair suggests that Jordan Brand may be considering a future release. While nothing is officially confirmed, history tells us that strong demand often influences upcoming launches.

If Jordan Brand does decide to bring back this legendary colourway, it’s sure to ignite massive excitement in the sneaker community. Hit the ‘Notify Me’ button to stay updated and be the first to know when these coveted sneakers hit the shelves.
