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

These should only drop in Chicago then, if they wanna make these really limited. Open up a pop shop at the united center.

What if there was one pair for each one of Jordan’s six championships?

If they think this gonna restart and bring back hype they in for a big surprise. I'm in the streets heavy and shops. The kids don't give a flying **** about jordans no more unless it's a thunder 4 variant. Only us old heads/collectors wanted these. It's asics all day for the youth. The only nike they rocking with heavy rn is supreme black af1. Making these limited will do them no good. Feeding corny complex early pairs for thirst traps is a joke and screams desperate. That team over there been on the runner wave before the hype and lowkey been sick of JB rehashing the same styles/re issues. Willing to bet behind the scenes they tried em on and laughed at how uncomfortable they were while collecting that nike/jb $$$

Jordan 1 been tired for awhile now. Chicago Reimagined's fell hard. JB trying to rejuvenate a dying non-enthusiast market. but it's too late, sun has set and they've gone. good riddance. I kinda don't even want these lol. esp at 250. Loved seeing black cement 3 sit for like a week. Been able to get all these OG colors with ease. The hype era is over. thank the lowd.

So I’ve read the Complex interview and watched the videos. I don’t understand what they’ve done differently from any other AJ 1 85 that has been released. Am I missing something? They’ve had the same research and development jargon since the 2020 pairs.

These look completely different than other 85's though at first glance. Overall shape is different and better, especially in the sleekness of the toe, the midsole has been changed....and then there's all the silly small details that were mentioned in the article you read. These are completely different from say the White/Grey 85's that released. Those always looked weird to me.

These will probably set the precedent from now on with '85 1s in general, making each colorway more limited each year. I hope that won't be the case though

 

[skala]

yeah i agree with most sentiments on this supposed stock figure

these could hypothetically be mad limited and resell for a stupid amount & it still wouldn't bring back hype to the 1s, nor will the black toes or SBB retro....

just annoy collectors and or grumpy old heads who at this point feel indifferent or satisfied with their collections & have other life goals & priorities

I guess I can keep my 2016 pair!
JB wild for this release, those that miss can get the Blacktoes as a consolation prize
