If you were to ask sneakerheads what their favorite Air Jordan is, you’d hear a mixed bag of responses. Jordan 1, Jordan 4, Jordan 11, maybe even Jordan 8. Seldomly you’ll hear someone mention the Air Jordan 2. That is until recently.
If you’ve been paying close attention to the sneaker scene in the past year and a half, there’s arguably been more energy around the Air Jordan 2 than at any other time in history. We’ve seen the likes of J Balvin, A Ma Maniere, Union, Maison Chateau, and Off-White take their turns on their interpretation of the sneaker, all leading to the return of the OG Chicago colorway on December 30th.
The Air Jordan 2 ‘Chicago’ marks a new era for the line with improved materials, shape, and a commitment to telling the story of the iconic sneaker. There will be old and new sneakerheads after this pair, and all the info compiled below will point you in the right direction on where to find a pair.
