Jordan Retro 1 '85 Black/Red Feb 14th 2025

I'm sure there will be plenty of whining that the red isn't light enough but they definitely aren't as dark red as the 2016's, the leather is that premium stuff we've got on the 85 highs, and the shape is improved from previous years' 85 highs. That's enough for me.
 
Jordan 1s are tanks and with the thicker cut leather the High '85 releases use, that should also help to increase their longevity. Combine that with properly caring for these and 2 pairs is enough to not need another pair of Black/Reds ever again, or at least not for a long time. If I gotta drop $500 on two pairs, so be it.
 
It has begun...............House of Heat has sent out the first rumored leaks (maybe)

Hopefully these are gs size they look like mids
 
Ppl are bummed on these in the IG comments 😂 being a aj1 psycho I totally get why they look like this. Still curious why 250 msrp. Box needs to be something atleast to justify it. I remember seeing fake jordan 5 versaces around 2014 that came Inna dope wooden box with the Medusa head 😂

The $250 price point is called inflation. It now costs Nike/JB more these days due to having to pay the slaves in China a higher hourly wage and because of this, they must pass the savings on to you.

Weren't those a custom from somebody when the 3lab5 line came out? I know they got faked but the initial pair with the wooden box i thought was a custom. Been a long time though so can't recall

Yes! Forgot about that lol migos versace influence was nuts back then.
 
Looks like February is getting lighter with releases by the day now with the pushbacks. I’m absolutely in for a pair of these.
 
They look incredible. Much better OG look and shape compared to the bc3s. Can’t wait
 
Red Metallic 85s released this year at $200 retail, what justifies this other than the colorway to be $250?
 
I'm curious on how the collar height will be on these compared to the current iteration of the high 85s... anyway love the shade of red on these. Will rock with red laces

You answered your own question. I dont agree with it, but thats all it is here.
This is unlike Nike though, there has to be something special about these since they set a retail price point that theyve been following this year.

Also the Banned Breds retailed for $160 in 2016, thats near $100 price increase in less than 10 years. Inflation my ***… (Price with 31% Inflation rate is $210)
