Description
The Jordan 1 Retro High OG SP Union LA Chicago Shadow, released in March 2025, merges two iconic Air Jordan 1 colourways, the Chicago and the Shadow, into a unique design that pays homage to the late '80s and early '90s era. This model features a premium leather upper with a mix of varsity red, white, black, and grey tones, complemented by exposed foam around the tongue and vintage-inspired yellowed edges along the leather panels for a nostalgic touch.
Union LA’s signature details shine through with visible zigzag stitching, an oversized black Wings logo, and a distinct unla yellow tag at the side. The shoe is finished with a cushioned midsole and durable outsole for lasting comfort and performance.
Combining heritage craftsmanship, rich storytelling, and contemporary streetwear aesthetics, this Jordan 1 is a curated artifact for collectors and fans passionate about the brand’s legacy.
Care and Maintenance
To ensure the longevity of your sneakers, we recommend a considered approach to their care. Regular maintenance is key to preserving their aesthetic integrity and material quality.
- General Care: For leather and synthetic uppers, gently wipe away dirt with a soft, damp cloth and a mild cleaning solution. Laces can be hand-washed separately. Allow the sneakers to air-dry naturally, away from direct heat or sunlight, to maintain the structure and quality of the materials.
- Suede & Nubuck: These delicate materials require specific attention. Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove surface dirt, always brushing in the same direction. For stubborn marks, a specialist suede eraser is recommended. Avoid water, as it can stain and alter the texture. To protect against the elements, a light application of a waterproofing spray designed for suede can be beneficial.
