Tribute to the 35th anniversary! The dreamy “Chicago AJ1” is really coming again!
As we all know, 1985-1986 was the first year of Air Jordan 1 more than 30 years ago, and the prelude of modern sneaker culture has officially opened since then. But many friends may not know that the first year Air Jordan 1 created a total of 3 shoe styles. In addition to the familiar Air Jordan 1 High and Air Jordan 1 Low low-top models, there is also the Air Jordan 1 KO made of canvas. The Air Jordan 1 KO inherited the design of the Air Jordan 1 family. Instead of using leather, it was presented with the canvas material that was more popular on sports Air Jordan Shoes 2020 in that era. Air Jordan 1 is undoubtedly a classic shoe type in the history of sneakers. Among them, the black and white red Chicago color scheme based on the theme of the Chicago Bulls is a palace color in the hearts of countless sneaker players. But Jordan Brand hasn’t re-enacted the Chicago color Air Jordan 1 in recent years.
A total of 4 Air Jordan 1 KO models were created in 1986, namely Chicago Chicago, Bred Black Red, Silver and White Gray. The Chicago color scheme is naturally the “ace” of the Air Jordan 1 KO, and it is also a timeless classic in the sneaker circle. After its debut in 1986, it was reissued twice in 2010 and 2014. And 2021 will be the 35th anniversary of the Air Jordan 1 KO shoe. The most iconic Chicago color scheme is coming back today, and it has been 7 years since the last sale. Maybe many young players don’t know much about Air Jordan 1 KO, and the meaning of KO is Knock Off. A “low-cost” shoe model based on the Air Jordan 1 born in 1985. Different from the classic version, the KO version of the shoe body is made of canvas material with a larger area, and the heel has a corresponding reduction in part of the support. At the same time, the shoelace is designed with 8 holes.
It is expected to be on sale in the spring of 2021, and there will be a 2021 physical picture exposed. The color scheme is exactly the same as the first year of OG, and the familiar Bulls are dressed in white, black and red. At the flying wing logo, the words AJKO are still present, indicating its identity. I believe that there will be a richer physical picture exposure soon. The classic color scheme of Chicago AJ1 has always been a hot spot in the sneaker market. This return will surely be another scene of empty streets. We will wait and see!
