As the Air Jordan 1 Hi ’85 “Reverse Shadow” surfaced and disseminated through the sneaker universe, it appeared that the flipped colorway was headed for the same spotlight treatment as its “Bred Counterpart,” even enlisting Hiroshi Fujiwara to bring the public the first on-foot look. Its release creeping closer, a sudden last-minute change flipped expectations, announced as a Tokyo exclusive.
We can’t guarantee the Jordan 1 “Reverse Shadow” is reversing course entirely, but Spanish retailer Foot District now lists the shoe for an imminent release. At the risk of going too far “inside baseball,” loading the shoe on Nike server with official images was a hint early on that something was amiss, something that wouldn’t be required for a simple one-off drop in Japan. Holding onto the inverted grey and black upper arrangement, pre-aged soles, and OG-minded cut, this could be a signal that this shoe will indeed become widely accessible, or at least far more attainable than we once thought.
