Air Jordan 1 HIGH ‘85 "Neutral Grey" - Early 2021

[doscinco]

Jordan Brand really gonna make these super limited, huh?

 

[1978S]

how are y'all so ready to believe that a messed up toe box from photos of a single pair of shoes will somehow apply to the whole production run

Single? There have been at least 3-4 different pairs leaked, and the majority of them have this toe.

Get your resale money out like 3god

That boy gotta pay up for these because he’s gonna strikeout like Sammy Sosa.

 

[colosneakerado]

I respectfully disagree

These r perfect

 

[burgersman]

Already on Goat and StockX for $1800 and $3000, respectively in my sz 12. Lol. Let’s see what those prices look like after release day. Fingers crossed it’s around 500ish.

 

[forest hills]

Fully prepared for an L on these LMAO

 

[headdetective]

Man is praying to spend $500....$300 over retail.

What a time.

 

[jordanhead718212]

Lmao I don't think he's praying bro, he's just being realistic
I'ma pull out all the stops to try and get these for retail, but I already know it's a 5% chance

Same man and it high key sucks haha. Feel like it ain’t even worth trying for and copping another shoe in a similar cw instead. As much as I’ve wanted the neutral grays they just aren’t worth the headache since everyone wanna beast over jordan 1s these days smh

[Arthur Shelby]

I’ll just go for this and pass on some meh drops the rest of the year

 

[burgersman]

These are a grail for me.
If prices remain astronomical, I’d entertain the idea of dyeing the suede and stitching white on the hyper royals:

burgersman post got me making it seem like Resale will start at Off White or Fragment Jordan 1 Prices

For an 85? In OG colors? I think that’s reasonable. The reverse breds are at $550 in my size while the New Beginnings/Varsity Red are $1900. I wouldn’t be stressed if these were produced in Volt or Mocha numbers.

My sentiments exactly. I love the OG 1s, the Chicago themed colors espevially, but the natural grays are really the only non Chicago colorway that I've always wanted but unless JB mass produces these like the '19 Black Infrareds or most other 3,4,5 and 6 NA models, then getting these for retail is going to be next to impossible. I'll still try though. Got my '16 Black Toes on footlocker of all sites and manually at that, so I'll cross my fingers and give these a shot.

 

[kurr]

^^ wore my Black Toes today. Anyway, did anyone get a chance to cop the previous '85 realease irl? How did that go? I need to exhaust all my options to get this shoe.

 

[jordanhead718212]

I just hope those who truly want them and have been waiting for years get them for retail.

Mochas were reselling for $350 from day 1, but it's unfathomable to think that an OG that's never been retroed before (That will almost DEFINITELY be limited) won't be going for at least 5? Gonna be a lot of reality checks in this thread come release day

 

[KanyIZZY]

If you really wanted these and have been waiting long before the forced hype, you're not getting them. Especially you reading this right now.

It's going to be a newb, some random that 'found out about them the day before', and the guy that never loses on SNKRS but keeps getting blessed.

 

[burgersman]

Yup. Me on release day paying some 19 yr old half my rent:

 

[Faber Castell]

I'm not paying over retail for these just so I can look like a drummer in a 1980's metal band (the ole sour grapes as they say)

This whole bloated aftermarket, bot buyer, bot seller experience makes buying sneakers for average joe's like myself, an anxiety-ridden pain in the a**

 

[turbo95eg6]

I’ll take the lows instead, thanks

I've been spending way too much $ on clothes, shoes, sneakers (that I haven't even worn) and now I'm eyeing all these Carmines, Air Structure OG's (doubles) and these?

It's starting to become too overwhelming and I want to stop soon. I need to cool off and enjoy what I have and save $

After March 15 I'm going to cool off. But until then, I want to try my best to snag these OG classics. No one said it would be easy lol

Like an addict, just one more time

Share that knowledge with your NT bros, friend. I'll be posting links in the days before the Hi '85 drop, which come out on Wednesday 2/10 and then three days later the Carmines drop. That should be an exciting week!
