The Air Jordan 1 High ‘85 remains one of the most iconic sneakers of all time, and the 'Reverse Shadow' colorway brings back the classic 'Shadow' color scheme. This release is a tribute to the model's rich history.
Why the Jordan 1 High ‘85 is a must-have
Jordan Brand is reviving a rare sample from 1985 for summer 2025. Hiroshi Fujiwara, a long-term brand employee, unveiled the sneaker on Instagram. This special iteration reverses the classic ‘Shadow’ 's typical black and grey color blocking.
The result is an asymmetrical design inspired by Jordan Brand's early archives. The premium black and grey leather uppers offer a modern interpretation of classic colours, while the muslin vintage midsole gives a subtle, timeless look.
The model combines modern sophistication with the heritage of the original 1985 version of the Air Jordan 1 - a must-have.
