The Air Jordan 1 AJKO "Chicago" From 1986 Is Making a Comeback

14 Dec 20, 12:45 PM•Adam Cheung

Well, we certainly didn't expect this. Back in 1986, Michael Jordan and the Swoosh united for the AJKO line. Taking the classic Air Jordan 1 and giving it a slight rework, it replaces the usual leather with canvas that adds an element of versatility to the design. Now, after almost four decades, the shoe is making a comeback in the form of the Air Jordan 1 AJKO "Chicago", and we're taking a sneak peek!

Dropping in the original construction, the "Chicago" works on a clean white base with bold red accents across the ankle, heel, and toe box. As mentioned previously, canvas takes over the shoe for a lightweight fit and finish, while leather accents continue to make their way along the lateral and medial side Nike Swoosh branding.
