The Air Jordan 1 High OG Chicago has been the most anticipated release since it last dropped back in 2015, ha! After years of rumors and speculations, it looks like Nike will finally be giving us a highly coveted retro release, sort of.
Known as the Air Jordan 1 Chicago Reimagined, this upcoming Jordan Brand release is said to be an aged/vintage iteration of the Air Jordan 1 Chicago. According to zsneakerheadz, the Air Jordan 1 Chicago Reimagined will also have an overall shape that’s closer to the ?85 release while also having an improved toebox that’s said to mimic the original pair. Like the classic Air Jordan 1 Chicago, the sneaker is expected to have a White leather base with Red overlays and Black detailing on the Wings, Swooshes, and collar. We also anticipate Nike Air branding on the tongues, a White midsole and Red rubber outsole. Also worth mentioning, a possible retail price increase is also expected. To give you an idea of what the sneaker may end up looking like, peep images below of the Air Jordan 1 High OG ?Chicago? from 1985.
It goes without saying that there is still no release date, but current reports have the Air Jordan 1 Chicago Reimagined releasing during Holiday 2022 at select retailers and Nike SNKRS. If these end up dropping this year, this is without a doubt the Jordan Brand release of the year, right?
