2025 marks the 40th anniversary of the Air Jordan 1, and Jordan Brand is set to honor this milestone by releasing the Hi ’85 Bred. Originally launched in 1985, this shoe has become synonymous with style and rebellion. Its black and red colorway, once banned by the NBA, symbolizes the daring spirit of its namesake, Michael Jordan.
Moreover, this retro release is a nod to nostalgia, crafted to mirror the original specifications. It features a full leather construction, a detail that adds to its authentic appeal. Additionally, the taller silhouette and larger, sleeker Swoosh differentiate it from other retros, making it a must-have for collectors and new fans alike.
This sneaker is more than just footwear; it’s a piece of basketball and fashion history. Its return in the Hi ’85 form is particularly special, as it closely resembles the 1985 original. Jordan Brand ensures that every element, from the color blocking to the materials, is true to its roots.
The sneaker community has eagerly awaited the return of this iconic model. Its previous releases in various forms, including satin and patent leather, have only heightened anticipation for a version that sticks to the original design.
