Air Jordan 1 Low 85 "Neutral Grey": Review & On-Feet
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
The "Neutral Grey" Air Jordan 1 Low returned this past weekend after a mere two years since they last released. However, this version differentiates itself being an "85" release, meant to be crafted closer to how the Air Jordan 1 was done back in 1985. These feature a premium leather upper, grey suede overlays, and a vintage looking rubber cupsole to give it that old school look. Did anyone else cop a pair?
Check out The Closet Inc. at theclosetinc.com and on Instagram at @theclosetinc, and stay tuned for their Canadian release of this shoe on Nov 13th!

Personally for me these are a much more comfy feel than the previous retro. They also look miles better than the 2021 pair. Double up worthy for sure!

@@luidirectsI have the 21/ they’re better imo but these are nice to double up
After getting these I decided to sell my used 2021 pair. When you have both side by side, these are just so much better looking imo. I love the shape. If you know Pokémon it’s like Porygon evolving into Porygon 2
Got mine a few weeks ago and am well happy. The cut & toe shape seems spot on. Leather is decent. I switched out the white laces for grey and it’s worth doing. 🔥
Clean beaters. Simple yet lovely aesthetic
Your review is spot on . I recently started wearing wearing size 10 half size up . I grabbed these in a 9.5.. and ya it we tough to Brest in at 1st. Now they feel fine . Happy for this retail Dub.
These are defibetly more comfy then any other jordan1 low og i've had on for sure. AMAZING shoe honestly.
I copped off the SNS raffle and I can tell you, these are the best lows to come out this year, maybe ever.
These are the perfect Jordan 1 lows for me. Decent quality and look without paying the GDP for a small country resale. Because they’re a white/grey shoe, I’ll be looking to double up. Great review as always!
I literally just copped these an hour ago. I picked these up just to: ✅ have a LOW 85 in the collection. Although you mentioned don’t go half a size down for low OG wearers, I still did it coz I plan not to even wear socks with these-I plan to beat them up like slippers. I got mine for retail, I guess the major online seller here decided to release their stocks that should have been released back in November 2023. Thanks for the honest & awesome review. Know that there are some new collectors like me, who goes back to watch your old reviews. 🫡
Always great videos!!
I waited for your review before copping one. I pulled the trigger in GOAT. Thanks for the nice detailed review. I hope you can also review the New Balance 991v2 Grey.
Always the best Sneaker Videos. İm checking at first your Videos before i buy some, thx again

I grabbed.5 up perfect fit with the thick padding..that insole is nice and soft I can’t believe no one wanted these I’m definitely grabbing a retail double up
these are my new beaters and sneaker of the year under retail. They are not perfect but they are much more comfy than the OG's. TTS 100%. Once you break them in 2-3 days they are good to go.
Going to be picking a pair soon!
I traded away my 2021 og pair. So I am glad to cop these 85s!
I ❤ this pair and review Sean!

One of the best shoes of the year
Had no issues picking these up for retail which is crazy. Should receive them in a couple days
got them on sale already, too good!!
This shoe is almost a perfect retro! Absolutely love them. Need every OG J1 cw. Edit: I also think they are comfier and fit better than the 2021 pair, the insole is much nicer and the toebox is wider. Other people's mileage may vary!
Doubled up on these. 🔥

I just got these today. Thank you for the excellent review. The background song goes so well with this too 👍👏
These went on “stealth mode” as for its release here. I really wanted these but the drop disappeared. Thanks for the awesome review, especially about the sizing.

Man double up instantly for me. Hit 2 raffles and tried to buy another pair from burned rubber but they canceled 😞 my order. These are the best low Aj1 by far. Love 85 cut jordan 1's and all I have been buying with the exception of the palomino and black toe lows.
SLEPT ON THE 2021 VERSION, DID NOT SLEEP ON THIS PAIR. SHOUT OUT END CLOTHING FOR HITTIN ME WITH THE DEAL ON EM TOO. UNDER RETAIL BABY

Sean - Would you recommend these or the AJKO Union sail you did a review on? i'm stuck deciding!
Such an incredible pair, and an easy retail cop. Shape & materials are the best re issue of the neutral grey lows ever. The only thing the 2015 pair has over these is the swoosh size, but that’s nitpicking. I never double up but should have on these!
@Neil-qg9cw

The swoosh size on the 2015 pairs look great, but they are not more accurate as they are much bigger than the OGs. These pairs have a more accurate swoosh than the 2015 pairs.

I hit on the Social Status raffle and I have yet to receive any info on when they will arrive. Anyone else???
i have the 2021 low neutral grey ... i don't see the point of copping it but still a great review
Hello I com from Taiwan , May I ask about the shoe style? I am jordan11 us8.5 ,tks
I just got mine in stock X. They are definitely too small. Going up a 1/2 size is a must. Maybe even a full size.
It’s time to review all the Asics Kayano 14 x unaffected pack
Nice vid. What’s your pants bro?
When it comes to shoe sizing in general, Sean is the king! Edit: Do they fit like SB Dunks?

We haven't had a number 1 WR since Steve Smith, then comes along DJ Moore after dam near 5 years!!! Then just like that he's gone! If it wasn't for Adam Theiland if I spelled that correctly, we wouldn't have any kind of a passing game! 😢
Classic OG without any changes on it is always the best
I like them but I don't like the price. Will probably buy tho
I'm thinking of selling my 2021 pair and get these '85 Low as a replacement 🤔

The 2021 pair is terrible. From any angle, they just look like a pair of boxes. But with the 85 version, everything is smooth and curvy, like it should be. Also, the leather being far better on these, the white PU insole, and that board last makes these a million times more comfortable. Retro OGs feel like you’re wearing nothing, which is nice, but these Retro 85s feel comfortable and confidence inspiring. If you have the 2021 pair, sell them and get these.
Definitely a pass for me, AJ1's just don't do it for me anymore. Interesting to hear the sizing and I hope Jordan Brand moves forward with more of this 85 style in the future. Keep it up Sean ✌🏼
I really like these but definitely a want and not a need. I already have the Sea Salt 990v2's and these would fill essentially the same niche, so i'm probably gonna pass.

If I wear an 8.5 in the OGs, would an 8.5 be a bad idea for these? The OGs are a bit loose on me.

Super nice but too expensive for lows
Hopefully they get under retail cause 170$ for a such a basic shoe with no extra laces or anything is insane

The bigger swoosh and the OG aesthetic did it for me. I might be the minority but didn’t really like the 2021 pair. For me it’s a toss up between the 2023 and 2015 low release.

Do yourself a favor and get the 2023 pair only lacking the huge swoosh but miles better than any other. Plus depending on size could be under retail
These need to go on sale $160+tax is insane

Actually, the Lows released in 1985 at $65 iirc. With inflation, it comes out to $157 in 2023 money. Jordan brand is just keeping up w/ inflation every time they raise the price 🤷♂️
