It looks like we are finally going to get an Air Jordan 1 High 85 Bred release. Ever since Jordan Brand started releasing Air Jordan 1 High 85s, we were all waiting for certain colorways such as the Royal, Chicagos and Breds to drop. The time is nearing as it is being reported that the Air Jordan 1 High 85 Bred will be releasing in Spring 2025 as it looks to commemorate the Air Jordan 1s 40th Anniversary.
Without a doubt one of the most, if not the most beloved Air Jordans of all-time, the Air Jordan 1 High Bred originally released in 1985, as was known as Michael Jordan’s first signature sneaker with Nike. Also known for being that sneaker that was banned from the NBA for violating uniform regulations (too much Black and Red, not enough White), the Air Jordan 1 Bred instantly became a symbol of revolt and style. The highly anticipated Air Jordan 1 High 85 Bred release means that sneaker lovers will finally get a chance to own a pair that will be close to identical to the original. This means the same OG color blocking, same build, same cut, etc. Arriving in a Black, Varsity Red, and White color scheme, the Air Jordan 1 High 85 Bred is defined by its taller build when compared to your traditional Retro High OG release, alongside a larger and sleeker Swoosh on the side panels. You can also expect a thicker premium leather to be used on its construction, which consists of a Black base and Varsity Red accents on the toe box, collar, heel and Swoosh. A White rubber midsole, Red outsole, Nike Air branding on the tongue tags and Wings branding on the ankle are also expected to be part of the sneaker’s design. Each pair will also come with extra laces, a hangtag, and original packaging. The Air Jordan 1 High 85 Bred has yet to be unveiled, but below you will find a mockup courtesy of zsneakerheadz that gives you an idea of what the sneakers will end up looking like.
Retailing for $200, the Air Jordan 1 High 85 Bred is slated to release on February 14th, 2025, which is the Friday of All-Star Weekend 2025. For a complete guide including official photos, release dates, pricing and where to buy, visit: Air Jordan 1 High 85 Bred.
