Air Jordan 1 High ’85 “Bred” Releases Date

In 2025, sneaker enthusiasts and basketball fans alike are eagerly anticipating the release of the Air Jordan 1 High ’85 “Bred,” set to commemorate the iconic model’s 40th anniversary. This timeless silhouette, with its classic “Bred” colorway, holds a significant place in both sneaker culture and sports history.

The Air Jordan 1, first introduced in 1985, revolutionized the sneaker industry and forever changed the landscape of athletic footwear. Designed by Peter Moore, its bold aesthetic and innovative technology were complemented by the groundbreaking marketing campaign featuring Michael Jordan himself. Since then, the Air Jordan 1 has become a cultural icon, transcending its origins on the basketball court to become a symbol of style and self-expression.

The “Bred” colorway, short for “black” and “red,” holds a special significance within the Air Jordan lineage. Originally banned by the NBA for violating uniform regulations, the black and red color scheme became synonymous with defiance and rebellion. Despite the league’s attempts to suppress it, the “Bred” colorway only grew in popularity, cementing its status as one of the most iconic color schemes in sneaker history.

The forthcoming release of the Air Jordan 1 High ’85 “Bred” pays homage to this storied legacy. With its premium materials, faithful recreation of the original design, and attention to detail, this iteration promises to capture the essence of the original release while offering a fresh experience for a new generation of sneaker enthusiasts.

As we celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Air Jordan 1, the release of the “Bred” colorway serves as a reminder of the model’s enduring influence and cultural significance. From the courts of the NBA to the streets of cities around the world, the Air Jordan 1 continues to leave an indelible mark on the world of sneakers and beyond.

Sneakerheads and fans alike can look forward to the release of the Air Jordan 1 High ’85 “Bred” in 2025, as Nike pays tribute to four decades of excellence, innovation, and style.
