Air Jordan 1 High 85 "Varsity Red" (Reverse Bred): Review & On-Feet
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 ส.ค. 2024
- Rounding out my pickups from February, Jordan Brand released a second colourway of the Air Jordan 1 High 85, this time in an all-new "Reverse Bred" colourway that was limited to only 23,000 pairs. With similar construction as the Jordan 1s in the New Beginnings Pack, these adopt a Red and Black upper, flipping the toebox colours found on the iconic "Bred 1". Check out my review to learn more!

The Reverse Breds use full Grain leather, which is the best quality leather, thats why it's thick and stiff. It will need to be broken in.
better Tumbled leather
@@Banggeek no
@@Banggeek Tumbled leather is a synthetic process commonly used on worse leathers because it also can hide defects in the leather
I’m so glad I came up on these. Sometimes I forget just how clean these really are.
This mans channel is so slept on. Y’all give this man his respect and subscribe. Objectivity is always 💯
Thanks!
Just a tip for Canadians:
Even though we don’t have a SNKRS App, there IS a SNKRS page on the Nike.CA website for us. Highlight the New Releases tab and go to SNKRS LAUNCH CALENDAR tab. You can bookmark that page. However, please note that the releases are usually at 6-7am in the morning or 6-7pm in the evening. Make sure you’re aware when the shoe you want is dropping. Also, if you hit, your pairs are shipped from the Netherlands via eshopworld. That takes about 1-1.5 weeks to arrive.
Good luck in the future.
J. S. shipping cost? I never win😂😭
Owen Liu None of which I am aware. For Canadian purchases, shipping to Canadian addresses is free. You should create a profile before D-day though. You’ll need to checkout fast enough to get it. I just lay in bed, get ‘er done (cop or not), then go back to sleep. The only thing is we don’t get releases like the US (e.g. Travis Scott’s collabs)... Technically, you bought it in Canada and it’s usually free for shoes at such prices. I just added that titbit about shipping from the Netherlands for Canadians that may be expecting their shoes in “2-3 days.”
Owen Liu Keep trying. I won the recent Offwhite x Nike collab. I was shocked. If it says “servers down”, hit the Back button once and try checking out again. Good luck
These are so fire, still hesitant to pull the trigger and pay resale for these. But I'm probably gonna do it.
I did it but not for a ridiculous price. It was worth it! 😊
Great review Sean. I love all the similar details to the 85s. Board lasted insoles are great and that shape is just beautiful. Even the mimmicked hand tooled midsole was a very nice underrated touch. I definately need to add these to the collection asap
I hit on these on SNKRS. I was actually trying to get the strangelove dunks at the same time but managed to hit on these. They are pretty stiff but after walking around the house with them on, the leather broke in pretty well.
been waiting for this review dope!
The on feet’s are always🔥🔥🔥
Imo The 85s silhouette are so much better looking than the modern jordans
OG always, especially 80's to 90's👍
I managed to get these on SNKRS, it was the only February sneaker drop I had luck on.
Solid review bro, as always. Yeah, I had the storm blue 1’s back in the 80’s as a skate shoe and actually remember that the shoe ran slightly bigger than my actual size but the leather was indeed much thicker as I beat these down heavy and no holes. I agree, I think I prefer the retro og style silhouette versus this pair. Looks way better on feet!
Even if I had $50M in the bank, I wouldn't pay a single penny over $250 for a pair of otherwise ordinary high top leather sneakers. F*** StockX and GOAT.
I will just take my L's gracefully now, knowing that "the sneaker game" is an endless material endeavor, with no worthwhile fruit to bear.
Or buy reps. Screw resell.
@@UncleAlpha1 I don't trust sending money via PayPal to random dudes in China in hopes that my "fakes" will arrive and within a reasonable condition and quality that reflects near 1:1. I mean even those guys are charging retail prices now and you don't really know what you're getting in terms of quality control.
A Dream dont knock it til you try. You will be in disbelief and amaze.
Really dope shoe but can’t pull the trigger on these. I’ll definitely go broke with all these releases smh
I prefure the cut and more flexable leather of the 2015 onwards Jordan 1s. I just slept through the release (I dont like Ls😒) and saw the Sneaker News review and copped a pair the very next day. The price has dipped but im watching the market with interest. Its a supadope collection piece is what it is.
I just wish they'll release this cw for the normal Jordan 1 Highs nevertheless the OG still looks fire tho! 🔥❤️
@Sean Go MJ DID wore this PE shoe!!! I saw a pic with MJ wearing this very shoe!! But it was not sold back then!
HouseRepsWestCoast if it’s the screenshot from the Just For Kicks documentary that is floating around, that photo is photoshopped. He wasn’t wearing that shoe in the actual video.
Michael Jordan did wear this colorway when he played. He didn’t play too many games in it but there are pictures of him playing in it
Josh Fehr if you’re referring to the still images from the Just For Kicks documentary, those were photoshopped. He never wore this.
Sean Go oh wow didn’t know that thanks for the clarification
Nice vid as always! I was able to cop mine for retail on SNKRS. Until this day I still cannot believe I got them. Love the look, but they are a killer to my feet because I have wide ones. Hopefully, when I keep wearing them they will break in more.🤞
Lucky!! I took an L on these! 😭😭😭
@@eddiealfaro5487 I can honestly count on one hand how many times I got "lucky" bro. LoL
@@jahtzkie18 haha same 💯
Did these ever break in for you?
Another great review 👏, shoes are 🔥🔥
feoandfea thanks!
I NEED REVERSE ROYAL BLUE 😭
Yes
Let’s get it bro 👍🔥
I discover them yesterday. But unfortunately my size is not more available 😢 I wonder myself when they realesed?
These are fire bro. I got these but I need the pack now.
Nice video! I cop mine for retail from Footlocker. The AJ1 mid red, black, and white is thick and stiff. It needs to be broken in. I wear my shoes. These are clean. I love the look. 😍❤💯👣⭐️🔥🌞🎁🧦👟
These look great, they colorway grew on me big time.
number 1.
Uyosue Eseroghene number 2💪😎
I got 2300
Hey Sean, Do u have any plan on reviewing the trending NB like Joe freshgoods 992, 1700 Colorist pack and 1300 Japan pack ?
I always felt like this is how the original OG bred should have looked like so i prefer these above the bred and these are my 2nd favorite AJ1 and I never payed more 570 for any sneaker on the resell market and im not willing to pay over 650 for these I might pick them up soon ✌😉
I just grabbed these for 300 couldn’t pass up the deal they appeared on grailed and I needed them
this is dope but would have been extremely fire if they were in the bred color blocking. Hope Jordan brand releases an 85 version of one of the og colorways.
Is it 23,000 of each size or total stock?
#588 / 23,000 😎
clean fade
These are beautiful, idk about that resale though🥴
Get them while the resale is low. Won't be long before the price really begins to spike up
dope but im unfortunate that i didnt get to win in Snkr app. 😭😭 i would probably having the review too in my youtube channel using my native tongue if i have the same pair.
does it really have a different shade of red with the Nike swoosh?
Overrated. Cool collectors piece but prefer comfort over nostalgia and not priced gouged for a "1985" specs.
David W. Someone's salty he didn't cop
@@sosukewifhat I tried on my buddy's pair and didn't care for them. Neither did he so he sold them too lol. Not for everyone.
The thick insole makes these more comfortable than the other retros
Put wax laces in mine size 10.5 ds they look crazy. Thinking bout selling tho
You Going to the sneakercon in Cleveland?’
in a year when you see the "glitter" effect on the leather (it's a feature, lol) you'll know the "quality" of the leather. I can vouch that mid 80s era Nike sneakers had actual leather- look how they scuff and get worn. This plastic concoction does not wear like leather, no scuffs, because it's mostly plastic.
wow, that's so limited. I'm pretty sad. I don't pay resale. but gosh, those are really nice.
My question is why it took Jordan brand _so long_ to kinda cover up and reveal the real history. They’re good, but I like the modern swooshes 10x better.
they look way cleaner styled and on feet
What’s your favourite all star release?
Zayad Ashraf New Beginnings or NC to CHI
Not really a big deal but Jordan actually did wear these in 85/86. This was originally a PE color way but there are photos of him wearing them online, it's just the first time they've released to the public
crispysteaktaco link to the photos?
crispysteaktaco I know there’s images of him in this from the Just for Kicks Documentary but those images were photoshopped
Sean Go my bad I confused this pair to the red/white from the new beginnings pack lol
These are going down in resell so thats a good sign to pickup!
Hi I'm from Brazil
what aj1 bred reverse was released on what date? Will he come to Brazil? can you tell me?
my dream to have a reverse bred aj1, i wanted so badly
If they haven't released now, then they probably won't release in Brazil :(
Mike did wear those on court
Nah it was a photoshopped image from the Just for Kicks Documentary.
Sean Go aww ok
Awesome review like always bro. I’m from the 80’s era and I don’t remember 1’s leather looking like this back then. These things look like plastic. Jumpman Bostic says the the leather is close but I respectfully disagree. The leather back in ‘85 was a better quality leather than this. This one is synthetic, you can tell. These things aren’t going to breakdown, you’ll need to wear them a year non stop and we will see.
Will23 23 - PREACH! These uneducated folks are trying to defend this Nike crap. You know for a FACT that they never wore OGs.
Have you had these in hand? I have a pair and trust it's real leather on these.
William King - I don’t trust. I know.
@@slowry8044 I'm not saying it's the exact same as the joints from back then I'm 38 so I was young when they came out but I do know real leather
Then u know nothing about real leather cuz this is what real leather is supposed to look like until u break it In like a baseball glove genius
🔥🔥
I think JB clearly sees the popularity of Jordan 1's so they're trying to find ways to up the price
modern day J1 all day
Pretty sure Jordan did play in these and wore them in a promo
Nah it’s a new colourway, he never wore these
Wish photos could be added on here :/
@@nikeflash9 paste the URL?
Don’t mind the article claiming these are Bred 1s. Just the pics of Mike hooping. They’re def the varsity red 1s and not air ships
Hmm URL keeps getting removed after I upload comment 🧐
Jordan wore them
Mikey Rivera No he didn’t. The image floating on the net was a photoshopped image from the Just For Kicks documentary.
th-cam.com/video/nfA3-69REQ4/w-d-xo.html
Fire, but I hate that people are calling these Reverse breds. These aren't a true reverse bred. Same goes for the "Reverse" He Got Game which should be called the Oreo 13s
This colorway was worn by michael jordan it was a PE…. It just never came out till now
if you’re referring to the still images from the Just For Kicks documentary, those were photoshopped. He never wore this.
@@SeanGo Do you think those are women shoes? Someone told me they are
They were not a PE. it was a photoshop that a sneaker documentary came out with thinking that's what they look like. The air ship were the actual PE
This shoe is hideous. Made like crap.
