Air Jordan 1 Low '85

[@michaellamb5006]

Dude. You’re the best. Plain and simple. Never. Ever. Doubt. Your. Performance. In. Your. Videos. Flawless.

[@geckk]

As someone who needs to replace my neutral gray OG lows, I’m so hyped for this release. My outsole has almost no traction left and I’ve been wearing them daily for almost a year now.

[@Maxio6]

All OG 1985 jordans with white tongues had a polyester tongue that was woven just like that! All the black 85 tongues had a silky fine woven tongue. Love JB starting to apply these small details

[@WearTesters]

That’s really cool. Thank you for sharing 🙌🏼

[@cowboytanaka69]

Oh hi Max

[@Scott.A.Hettenbach]

Dude absolutely love the Birds Eye "MJO" style for comparisons. It's way easier to see differences with the Birds Eye down cam vs the B Roll Also faint nostalgia back to the OG NW style of just hands handling shoes haha Keep it up Chris we're so grateful!

[@meepmeep1112]

I love the effort of bringing back the '85 but tbh I find the leather quality is still disappointing with a bunch of creases just after one wear with their heavy plastic coating. And probably the shoes need to be worn more but i feel like it squeezes your feet a lot with the extra padding and all.

[@Trey_Henderson]

Mrs. Wing is correct, you are your biggest critic. You absolutely kill these videos.

[@wearejoe]

Some others posted these, but I’ve been waiting for yours WEARTESTERS!!! Thank you

[@WearTesters]

Hope you enjoy!

[@sheak8866]

Bro ur the best sneaker reviewer in the game. Hands down

[@Aqwtiny]

All these different variations are nice to have- but these price hikes on stiff worse quality leather (according to rose anvil) is such a scam

[@WearTesters]

Performance leather isn’t premium. Never has been and never will be. You’d rip right through premium leather if you played in it.

[@ThatWrapperDude]

@@WearTestershow is that when real work boots made with premium leather are the best out there and don’t rip through lol

[@orangetweleve]

@@WearTestersya, in short, never expect actual premium quality on mass produced stuff, especially from Nike they don’t make em like they used to

[@WearTesters]

@@ThatWrapperDude That's a completely different type of leather & tannery process to ensure it's durable. You want to play basketball in some work boots or do you want the upper to be flexible? When breaking down something for people to learn, you have to actually do it right and with proper context otherwise you end up with a bunch of angry people claiming something that isn't factually accurate. We can't sit here and compare a Toyota Corolla to a Ferrari or a high end luxury vehicle simply because they're all vehicles. They all have a different purpose. Some are for luxury, some are for sport, some are for daily driving at affordable prices. Context is everything.

[@Neil-qg9cw]

Rose Anvil is a clickbait demon

[@icysolez23]

I know its an og feature but the wonky mid-sole throws it off for me. 2015 still has the best variation as far as og AJ1 low’s.

[@madams8632]

And we appreciate your detailed & quality reviews

[@ENZO_D]

This AIR JORDAN 1 '85 LOW 'Neutral Grey' is an actual retro because the 'Neutral Grey' was also in low cut, in 1985 so I think they gonna give us what AIR JORDAN 1 (1985) fans want, they about ti drop 1 by 1 all the OG colorway and maybe some SAMPLE ones if not all, but we just have to be patient, I think the Chicago will be dropped in 2025 for it's 40th anniversary, if not, 50th (it would be awesome)

[@max-mkl]

2021 Neutral grey low is my gymshoe for quite some time and haha they are a bit fucked up and somewhat the heel lining got out but without a hole its difficult to discribe but sometimes you can feel the edge of the heel construction. When it comes to looks i prefer the 2021 tbh

[@slickgamer007]

Same i just got the 85 version today and prefer the 2021.

[@pmjc07]

Yup, I’m upgrading to the 85 lows. 😊👍🏼

[@moodus5250]

I also think it’s really important to tell as often as possible that there is nothing OG about the lows they sell us as ogs!

[@EzzyR561]

Thank you for the comparison. It’s super interesting. Hopefully you can do this when the royal reimagine come out

[@balfanze]

Thanks as always for such an informative review. And a special thanks on the sizing tip - I just got a pair and stayed true to size this time, really glad I did!

[@Dmil2506]

Great review as always , love your comparisons 👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾

[@WearTesters]

Thanks so much!

[@e7anp]

Urgh I would love that they choose to use the reverse Black/Red box instead of this White/Red box just have some consistency to the 85' cut series. As an OG sneakerhead, I hate the idea of different colour shoeboxes.

[@JoshuaYeshuaCSULB]

2015 series were my favorites . Keep the tiny swooshes but these are cool tbh

[@CDyer_BK2NJ]

Love the 85 Lows for the first week or two! After that the toebox shape gets completely crushed. I’ve gone through two pairs so far, and I’m not normally that crazy about creasing. Other than the plastic leather on the 2014 OG Lows, my other OG Lows seem to be holding up shape-wise way better than the ‘85 Low.

[@ashgstar]

Thanks Chris for the sizing tip! You da best bro!

[@cheex9861]

I love the lows, and this colorway can go with any outfit, definite cop

[@emersonestipona]

These are nice! Hope they do OG colorways (from the Highs) after the Metallic. Chicago and Royal gonna make the sneaker community go crazy!

[@eliresto4852]

"It looks like a bad tattoo" lol such a true statement!

[@stuartwilliams5267]

Been waiting for your review of these. The best reviewer on You Tube. Roll on Wednesday.

[@maxh.2422]

Ngl y’all got an amazing relationship, Ms. Nightwing really was trying to support and motivate there needs to be more women like her

[@Houston_RPM]

I am a fanatic for the ‘85 stuff but i am also a big fan of the fat swoosh from 2015, nike knows that consumers want the big swoosh again. The Travis collabs all have the big swoosh on the medial side of the shoe, so they can easily produce it, but they are going to stick with the business model of showing what we want, but giving something else.

[@seanbucknam8163]

Love the breakdowns!!! Would love to see more of these when you can.

[@shadowoftheson5144]

My God, why can’t they give us the 2016 shape with the correct midsole/sole and better leather. 🤦‍♂️ The Chicago’s look so good in this video.

[@rafaeashraf605]

theyll never do it

[@dizzle.1983]

People honestly can't be happy with anything. These are the closest to 1985 OG not 2016

[@shadowoftheson5144]

Excuse me, did you even see the toebox on the Jordan 1 he wore on court in 1985? Maybe you should educate yourself on that. It was wider and the toe rand didn’t come up as high. So save me that comment. The Travis Scott 1 lows are more like a real OG as far as shape. @@dizzle.1983

[@spiderkillsthefly8079]

Chris, your comic book t-shirt game is second to none! 🔥

[@brianeharmonjr]

Already got a pair of these for under retail from StockX and really dig 'em. Hopefully the 85 cut starts to be more available and attainable with coming releases. Have only been able to get one pair of the highs.

[@ThatWrapperDude]

Agree these 85 lows are so nice and comfy and I love how the look on feet. I got mine from goat pulled the trigger a little early and paid a little to much but I’m definitely buying a double if not triple up of those 85 neutral grey lows

[@Victor-it6bv]

I was about to go down half a size but this video saved me.

[@davidepavese7480]

Same for me. I normally go down 1/2 with the Low OG… thanks Chris! #1 as usual!

[@justinwolf424]

Did TTS work for you guys? I always go half size down in OG lows

[@whaiyun]

Kudos for the deep dive comparison. Love it!

[@orincoon5585]

Not a fan of the low tops but these are definitely a🔥pair of shoes. I doubled up on the Jordan 1 high 85 neutral greys. Great video and review guys!

[@LordBass10]

I love the comparison that you have been doing. Also agree the vibe shoe with the shape and cream color look more like a dunk. I prefer the 2023 jordan brand version.

[@BTNH_NiNJA]

Yet another dope review and appreciate the comparison which I was hoping you would do. Thinking of picking them up right now!

[@ThatWrapperDude]

Got my pair in from goat and I say go true to size but the heel padding is so nice! These are so comfy and I’m double maybe tripping up tbh

[@jissanhuq3792]

Dang the 2015s just went up in value. I was hoping it was going to look like that one

[@Chief1887]

Why do we keep getting this colorway/rendition of this AJ1… the Europe exclusive 2015 “OG” low, the ‘21 retro 85 high, the ‘21 new “OG” low & now these?!? … I’m not complaining at all b/c I love this cw but damn JB lol

[@thereporter3690]

Passing on these, like The air ship greys better .

[@krob41]

Chris! The bird’s eye comparison segments are dope! Keep at it mane

[@joeypetty4723]

Man the canvas tongue ruins for me, just from trying to keep it semi clean.

[@antonbabiera3335]

This is amazing! When was this released? Started the Low OG line in Neutral Grey, same with 85 low line. But I just wish Nike just made all the Lows in 85 rather than giving many names. So confusing

[@thebaum64]

I still love the big swoosh on the 2015-16 lows so much

[@pattonPwr]

But jordan brand sucks and won’t give them to us.

[@CatcherOfBass]

The neutral grey that released a couple years ago have been a staple in my summer outfits. Just a low top white sneaker that happens to be a Jordan 1 is a plus. I might cop these just to have a nice crispy white pair on standby.

[@calebwalton5003]

Keep trying new things man! I like the last segment . Reinforces a lot

[@Tonlucasz]

Comparisions at its best. Great vid

[@BobOsoo]

Just got mine in today and I would say half size up out of the box. Who knows after breaking in. But the ankle is very padded.

[@dreamtime3348]

that's why I always watched your review before buying j1

[@tylerhough9124]

Finally an AJ1 low that actually looks good. Been a while since I felt that way. Especially lately - all the releases have looked funny IMO and I’m wondering where the hype has been coming from. I’m not an OG head nor a historian so this is a general consumer perception opinion of mine, not a technical one.

[@masterdinosawr]

I still don't get why they don't do the big swoosh on them. They have the moulding because they used it for the Travis Scott lows.

[@GoodfellaNell]

Clean! Good comparison Chris!🔥

[@jeromezra]

Tongues on the white based 85s used that canvas-like tongue whereas the black based: Shadow, B/Red, Royal used a parachute nylon. They knocked these outta the park. Really wish we got the OG blk/red box

[@macfanguy]

In depth as always, even more than usual! 😮

[@terraebaker3617]

I like the look of those. I’ve had 3 pair of the high 85 neutral greys (sold them all…😞) but these days, I’m feeling lows as of late. Also, the price and availability are to my liking.

[@vincenttyler4667]

Thanks for the review as always. So excited for these need 2 pair. Do you notice canvas tongue at all?

[@brianpride8677]

Good comparison. Nice work. I like the larger swoosh too. I like the podcast videos you make too.

[@WearTesters]

Glad you like them!

[@tjhaider9451]

I was waiting for this one!!!

[@rxflyfishing1316]

Have been waiting for this video. The toe shape on 85s looks kinda goofy on feet. The real original 1985s don’t seem to have that banana toe shape. I still want them though 😂

[@wuwuisaac]

these look so great but i’m not sure i’ll cop another white low cut shoe to wear

[@GGPG]

I must say, comparing the shoes from the og one is a great addition

[@by_run]

Might grab a pair. Awesome review as always. 🔥

[@ronaldbrooks1226]

I'm looking to getting the Chris Paul Air Jordan 1 Low OG Give Them Flowers which looks like these 🤔

[@techdad31]

Great review! BTW, where did you get that Spider-Man tee? SO dope!

[@ScrubYoutube]

was waiting for this video!

[@steffanofumo]

Entered a few raffles for these and wouldn’t be upset if I hit all of them, the neutral grays is my most worn J so these are a must cop.

[@the_beevsknees]

I know it's a small complaint but curious to why the black toe lows got extra laces, but the red lows didn't and now these don't?

[@natcheral4810]

If you look really closely 5:59 there’s a little flea on the overlay of the shoe lmao

[@strikerali2160]

Me patiently waiting for the Reimagined Royal review…. Great video as always… C’mon Chris, I know you have them…. 👀 please?

[@frogtofall]

Re: Phone Comparison… Its appreciated but the quality isn’t great. Just a lighting issue honestly. Still prefer you do it vs not doing it.

[@Jeffelangelo]

Nike has made the naming of everything confusing.

[@RR-hk3jj]

Where are they? I can’t figure out where they released at

[@Colorwayz1984]

I love these even though they have some “Gramps” on em.. would you say they feel like airships on feet? If they do I gotta get em

[@JoeMama-ly1kc]

These look like my Wolf grey Jordan 1 mid i got in 2015- 2017 around then

[@MrSlingSh0t]

Great comparisons and detailed explanations!! Please keep that going. Been watching the channel a hot minute now due to the humbleness and honesty of the delivery, but there are some minor annoyances that I would like to see improved. The background music drives me bonkers and seems completely unnecessary. Listening to reviews with headphones on really accentuates it and not in a good way, so now I can’t unhear it on any video. I suggest to remove it altogether going forward. I also would like to see refreshed reaction snippets instead of the rehashed The Office references or the cat covering it’s mouth with the beeps and all the other stuff that keeps repeatedly getting overly-used. I’d love to see the channel be current with today’s culture vibe while still being brutally honest giving out sneaker opinions reviewing shoes. That would be pretty much ideal. But please don’t ever stop being a real one. Few of you are on KZbin, especially in the sneaker game, giving an honest take no matter what. So don’t ever sell out for sly money on the low. True respect can’t be bought.

[@РекаИшым]

excellent review

[@SteezieG]

Super bummed they don’t fit like the typical lows. Went down half a size thinking they’d fit the same as well.

[@youngmc5040]

So are you upset you went 1/2 size down on these? I was wondering about this. I typically go 1/2 down on OG lows. I still don’t know If I should still stick with going down in size

[@Jeren6924]

Looking at that heel padding Imma go TTS like the SE's.

[@matsimms7467]

🇬🇧 great review as always. Your attention to detail is greatly appreciated.

[@rayrawket]

Whooo I understand it’s different from the other variants but idk if the price is something I want to pay for a low

[@magdowich]

Its crazy that they go under retail

[@darylfields]

How do they fit i have big wide feet

[@johnmcintyre7692]

Trying to decide on these or atmospheric grey. I ended up with these.

[@solarisramirez8039]

Please bring back the giant 2015 swoosh only thing i want back..

[@MarvinMr305]

Yep we need a comparison video

[@MrDaSanchez]

I may have missed it but What is the comfort like on these for those who own similar pairs?

[@jonestwo345]

Appreciate the content👌🏾

[@IsraelAsItGets27]

Did you see they released pics of the metallic blue 85 low & the metallic “burgundy “ and listed em kinda sorta on goat !

[@WearTesters]

Watch our podcast to see Chris discuss all of that stuff.

[@chrisg7310]

Pretty sure the wrong email(s) and miscommunication is what happened with the upcoming J1 royal reimagined and J4 bred. somewhere along the line, someone misread the email and switched the materials. now nike/JB has to spin the story so they can sell the products

[@WearTesters]

Those were done intentionally.

[@Josho67]

Which Jordan’s use all leather? I know the mids don’t use real leather in the mid panel. Do the low 85s use all leather? Also do some highs not use all leather?

[@Sneaker_Fox]

3:42 is it me or is that Nike logo a bit “OFF” it’s hanging a bit low and closer to the midsole.

[@HailKingCeezer]

Why do the real og 1's/lows have that bubble shape to the toe box? That gives it the most retro look imo and no retro ever gets that right. These 85's got that pointy toe which i hate. I still prefer viberemakelab and '15 og lows. The 15 og lows leather is meh except the Chicago's which are nice and soft. The quality and silhouette of VRL in hand are amazing. I completely regret selling my VRL black toes, but i just can't be wearing such expensive shoes anymore. Slightly over retail at most from now on for me. Keeping my beat up '15 og lows except the Chicago which are my favorite but they're just too valuable and the money in my bank is more important for me now so hmu w/ offers for size 8.5 m Chicago og low 1s w/no box, buyer pays shipping. Located in Houston

[@MarvinMr305]

Hey Chris I can fix those shoes for you and make them look like new.

[@tippylosojos]

I like these a lot, I do hope they release the blue one as well

[@CarlC259]

Anyone know for sure when and where these are releasing? I had head Oct. 25, but haven’t heard anything recently and it’s not loaded on the SNKRS app yet.

[@leonidasrozon2201]

So if you’re one with wide foot and wear and tts on lows, not down .5 like most… would I go tts still or up .5 on these since 85 cut and the more padding ???

[@jimbrown5605]

Tts

[@leonidasrozon2201]

@@jimbrown5605 even with wide foot?

[@marchenderson4759]

My brain hurts after that. Og none of normal cut , mid etc..

[@jayflow7022]

I don’t see them on the sneakers app would love to add these

[@dermagere]

We all had the ajko union canvas lows and the black cement lows WHY THE HELL did we need 50 more pais of dunks and jordan 1 lows in that white/sail/grey color combination they are all a hard pass for me because they're so similar
