Is The Air Jordan 1 Low ’85 “Royal” Cancelled? Here’s A Look Anyway

More intrigue for this potential 2025 drop.

Is The Air Jordan 1 Low ’85 “Royal” Cancelled? Here’s A Look Anyway

You surely already know about the incredible slate of 2025 Jordan Releases, but tabulating what’s coming out when only becomes more challenging with info surfacing of myriad delays and cancellations. One of the more high-profile reports was removing the Air Jordan 1 Low ’85 “Royal” from the release calendar, with industry insiders like @zsneakerheadz and @mrunloved1s corroborating that info.

Even with those rumors swirling, retailer images of that pair have now surfaced, allowing us to get a preview of what that drop could have or may still look like, coming just days After images surfaced of the Air Jordan 1 “Bred.”  Much like that black and red release, there aren’t many surprises regarding the colorway on tap. Reprising the OG shoe faithfully, the beloved combination of black and red is applied in original color-blocking. However, speaking of the model’s origins, that palette notably arrives on the “Low ’85” build, matching the mission statement of its High counterpart by swapping to a more angular Swoosh, raised collar height, and upgraded materials.

A potential cause of the shifting nature of this release is just how much heat is expected for February. To recount, the Air Jordan 1 “Black Toe Reimagined” slid from its original October launch back to the top of next year, joined by the Air Jordan 5 “Metallic Reimagined,” the Air Jordan 3 “Valentine’s Day,” the vaunted Galaxy Foams and the Kobe 6 “All-Star 2.0”

Again, this pair was expected to release in spring 2025, but multiple sources have noted that the drop was canceled. However, images of the product have surfaced from Size; this neither confirms nor denies a release. Catch the full suite of official retailer images included just ahead, and keep our Jordan Release Dates page close by for further updates.
