Debuting in 2020, the Air Jordan 1 High 85 was constructed to be the most accurate AJ 1 to date. While the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG was/is considered the truest form to the original release, the AJ 1 High 85 takes it a step further. Three colorways have been released with a fourth on the way.
Nicknamed the “Georgetown” edition, this Air Jordan 1 High 85 honors one of Michael Jordan’s biggest college rivals. It comes in a Hoyas-themed college navy, summit white and tech grey. Featuring an all-leather upper with tech grey underlays and college navy overlays in OG color blocking. The nylon tongue comes aged to give it an old school feel while Nike Air branding adorns the tongue tag and insoles. Sitting atop a white midsole and navy blue outsole, each pair is finished off by the original Air Jordan 1 hang tag for an added touch of flair.
The Air Jordan 1 High 85 Georgetown is set to be released in April 2022. It will drop at Nike as well as select Jordan Brand retailers in-store and online. They will be available exclusively in men’s sizes with custom packaging. Men’s pairs will retail for $200.
