Like I did with the Yeezy QNTM yesterday I wanted to provide some thoughts on the Air Jordan 1 Retro 85 “Reverse Bred” release.
  • There are no more 85 style AJ1 releases left in 2020
  • The leather on these is double the thickness
  • Everything is a lot more firm and thick, you can really tell the difference between recent year AJ1s and the 85
  • These are intended to be a collectors item and it shows in everything they did
  • Yhe attention to detail is amazing, so many nice little touches all the way down to the sticker in the in-sole.
  • It feels like a special and totally different AJ1 and I love that
  • Comfort seems the same but I need to wear them for sure to know
  • Aging of the leather is TBD, I hope these look beautiful with more wear
  • The numbered aspect of this release feels lazy, its only on a single dustbag one time
  • The dust bags are unfortunately useless, I confirmed that the black material will rub off on the white sole and stain it so I will never be using mine.

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
