After the release of the iconic “Bred” Air Jordan 1 High in the ’85 cut this year, we have been waiting for the next colorway of the remastered model to surface. This week, Hiroshi Fujiwara finally gave us that reveal, sporting a pair in a “UNC” color scheme.
Jordan Brand’s remastered version of the Air Jordan 1 High has been one of the most sought-after silhouettes of the last few years. Dubbed the ’85 edition, the style constructs the shoe as closely as possible to the original 1985 release, featuring a higher cut collar, altered padding, and a refined shape. The shoe has released in only a handful of colors so far, almost entirely in OG releases with a few special pairs like the “Georgetown” thrown in.
This week, another original style of the AJ1 has surfaced in the ’85 format, shown off by the godfather of streetwear himself, Hiroshi Fujiwara. In the photo, Fujiwara is seen wearing a “UNC” pair of the Air Jordan 1, but not the Reimagined edition that released early this year. Zooming into the photo shows it is distinctly the ’85 version, in a colorway we have not seen or heard of until now. There is currently no information regarding the shoe’s release, so this could be a limited-edition pair for friends & family, but hopefully they release to the public soon.
AIR JORDAN 1 HIGH ’85 “UNC” RELEASE INFORMATION
There is currently no information regarding the public release of Jordan Brand’s “UNC” edition Air Jordan 1 High ’85. The new colorway would likely release sometime in 2026, though no leaks have indicated this yet. Regardless, pairs currently exist and are in the hands of the brand’s most trusted partners like Fujiwara. We expect this style to carry the same $250 price tag as the “Bred” release from earlier this year.
