Jordan 1 Retro High OG 'Shadow 2.0'
The Air Jordan 1 was originally designed by Peter Moore and released in 1985 as Michael Jordan's first signature shoe with Nike. It was famously banned by the NBA for violating uniform rules, which only increased its cultural cachet. The Jordan 1 High OG remains one of the most recognisable and influential sneaker silhouettes ever made, bridging basketball heritage and streetwear culture across four decades.
The Shadow 2.0 pairs a black full-grain leather base with medium grey suede overlays at the toe box and heel. The grey Swoosh and suede panels add texture against the smooth black leather, creating a tonal contrast that keeps the shoe versatile and understated. Black laces, a white midsole, and a black rubber outsole complete the classic Jordan 1 colour blocking.
Full-grain black leather upper for durability and a premium feel. Grey suede overlays at the toe and heel for added texture and depth. Encapsulated Nike Air unit in the heel for lightweight cushioning and impact protection. Perforated toe box for breathability during all-day wear. Rubber cupsole with classic Jordan 1 traction pattern for grip on any surface.
Fit: Runs true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK size.

The Shadow 2.0 is ideal for anyone looking for a versatile, everyday Jordan 1 that works with any outfit. Its neutral black and grey palette makes it one of the easiest high-top sneakers to style, whether dressed up or down. The Nike Air cushioning also makes it comfortable enough for daily wear beyond just display or rotation.
The Shadow 2.0 works with almost anything thanks to its neutral black and grey palette. Pair with slim or straight-leg jeans and a simple tee for a clean everyday look, or go with joggers and a hoodie for a more relaxed streetwear fit. The high-top silhouette looks best when the ankle is visible, so cuff your trousers or let joggers stack naturally over the collar.
The Shadow 2.0 sits alongside colourways like the Bred, Chicago, and Mocha as one of the most popular Jordan 1 High OG releases. Compared to the Mocha, the Shadow 2.0 offers a darker, more understated palette with less contrast. Against the original Shadow, the 2.0 adds suede texture to the overlays for a more premium material mix while keeping the same core colourway.
Yes, the Jordan 1 Retro High OG runs true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK size. The leather upper breaks in slightly over time for a more comfortable fit, but there is no need to size up or down.
The original 1985 Shadow used an all-leather upper in black and medium grey. The Shadow 2.0 replaces the smooth grey leather overlays with grey suede at the toe box and heel, giving the shoe more texture and a slightly more premium feel while keeping the same iconic colour palette.
The Shadow 2.0 is a men's release, sized in men's UK sizes. The black and grey colourway is unisex in style, and women can convert their size down by 1.5 UK sizes to find their equivalent men's size.
For the leather panels, wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap. For the grey suede overlays, use a soft-bristled suede brush to remove surface dirt and avoid getting them wet. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
