Widely recognized as a fan-favorite, the two-toned “Black/White” color scheme officially returns to Jordan Brand’s Air Jordan 1 High ‘85 model. The Panda-esque colorway dresses the silhouette for the first time since 1985 following an initial sneak-peek shared earlier this spring.

The high-top sneaker is enriched by its original ’80s build, which has seen three modernized iterations, including the “Varsity Red,” “Neutral Grey,” and “Georgetown” colorways. Now, the silhouette is highlighted with traditional black and white hues, the latter adorning the perforated toe boxes, medial panels, and ankle areas.

The premium leather makeup features black overlays set atop the previous, which also hit the profile Swooshes that extend from the tails. Contrasting Wings logos are promoted on the exterior-facing ankle flaps, while nylon tongues deliver a dash of textural distinction fashioned with tonal badges embroidered with Nike branding.

A similar insole design completes the offering, stacked atop inscribed midsoles and black rubber bottoms.

Looking to snag a pair? The Air Jordan 1 High ‘85 “Panda” is rumored to hit shelves via Nike and select retailers globally in February 2023 for $200 USD.
