Air Jordan 1 Retro High 'Off-White Chicago'

The Air Jordan 1 Retro High Off-White "Chicago" (Style: AA3834-101) is one of the most iconic collaborations between Nike and designer Virgil Abloh, blending the classic Chicago colorway with Off-White's deconstructed, industrial design. Released on November 9, 2017, this sneaker pays homage to the original Air Jordan 1, while introducing modern design elements that reflect Abloh’s unique style.

Design & Colorway

The shoe features the legendary White/Black-Varsity Red colorway that Jordan fans love, but with a twist. The upper is constructed with a mix of leather and mesh, giving it a layered and unfinished look.

Abloh’s signature design elements, such as exposed foam and the iconic off-center branding, make the sneaker stand out.
