Air Jordan 1 High '85 "Reverse Shadow" Is a Tokyo-Exclusive

Jordan Brand continues to reignite the flame of the original Air Jordan 1 through its modernized Hi 85 series. The next OG joining the ranks is a sample from the early days: the Air Jordan 1 High "Reverse Shadow."

Released in High OG form back in 2021 under the "Shadow 2.0' banner, the original sample-inspired design will return in High 85 format for Summer 2025 — but it arrives with a neo-vintage twist courtesy of "Muslin" accentuations on the midsole.

The provided visuals are merely speculative based on the initial information provided; expect that the retail release may differ in appearance.

Of course, this isn't the only OG Air Jordan 1 Hi 85 catalog in 2025, with the Air Jordan 1 "Bred" expected to arrive earlier in the year.

As the Summer 2025 release approaches, Hiroshi Fujiwara has unveiled a first look at the Nike Air Jordan 1 High OG 85 "Reverse Shadow."

Official images are available now below ahead of this pair's Summer 2025 release date, which will seemingly be exclusive to Tokyo. Aki Masuda uploaded a picture of a pair she was seeded to Instagram Stories. In it, Jordan Brand representatives wrote a note that read, "Please enjoy this pair of Tokyo exclusive AJ1 High '85 'Reverse Shadows.'" Pairs will release at a V.A. Pop-Up between July 31 and Aug. 1 at 6-1-9 Jingumae, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo.

No word of a global launch has surfaced as of yet.
