Michael Jordan signed a lifetime deal with Nike in 1984 and permanently conjoined the sneaker world with the basketball world. The dynamic duo kick-started their partnership with the launch of the Air Jordan 1 sneaker model, which has maintained its undeniable presence in the streetwear sphere for more than three decades.

The red, black, and white combination, dubbed "Chicago," has been Michael Jordan's signature color scheme since 1985. This is a representation of Michael Jordan's basketball team, the Chicago Bulls. While most of the sneakers in the mid 80's followed an all-white color scheme, MJ introduced the "Chicago" color scheme.

Since then, the label has remixed and remastered the "Chicago" color scheme many times. The new makeover will see the base layer of the shoe constructed out of white leather material, which is overlaid with black panels.

The white hue is placed upon the perforated toe boxes, mid-panels, heel counters, and midsoles. The black panels are accentuated upon the forefoot, collars, tongues, and lacing system.

Pops of red are added to the ankles, the winged basketball logo, plain cotton laces, and the rubber outsoles underfoot. Branding details are added with the Jumpman logo upon the tongues and sockliners in red and black hues, respectively. The look is finished off with black profile swooshes, placed upon both medial and lateral sides.

Nike introduced the 1985-debuted Air Jordan 1 sneaker model, stating:

"Since his game-winning shot that brought championship glory to North Carolina, Michael Jordan has been at the forefront of basketball consciousness. He took the court in 1985 wearing the original Air Jordan I, simultaneously breaking league rules and his opponents' will while capturing the imagination of fans worldwide."

Customers now await an announcement about the official release date from the company.
