Sneakerheads, hold your breath! The iconic Air Jordan 1 Low 85 ‘Metallic Navy’ is making a much-anticipated comeback. A classic that first graced the sneaker scene back in 1985, this low-top pair is set to hit the shelves once again in the Spring of 2024. With a bit of nostalgia, a dose of style, and a whole lot of history, the 85 ‘Metallic Navy’ is more than just footwear; it’s a statement.
The Classic Rebirth
The return of the ‘Metallic Navy’ is a nod to the classic Metallic Blue Lows from 1985. Crafted with attention to the original design, the sneakers bear a slight intentional yellowing, a playful tribute to their age. A simple flex, the Air Jordan 1 Low 85 ‘Metallic Navy’ flaunts smooth white leather and shiny navy blue hints.
The Metallic Collection
The ‘Metallic Navy’ Jordans are a part of the iconic seven colorways from the 1985 metallic Jordan 1 series. Their debut year was a strong one, blessing us with historic colorways like “Chicago” and “Banned”. But the metallic collection is not to be forgotten. After all, the ‘Metallic Navy’ is the return of one of the eight iconic colorways if you count the navy low-tops.
First Glimpse
The Air Jordan 1 Low 85 ‘Metallic Navy’ made a surprise appearance in the hands of fragment designer Hiroshi Fujiwara in 2023, followed by official looks from Nike during the Spring 2024 reveal.
