Limited to just 12,000 pairs, the Trophy Room x AJ1 Retro High OG SP ‘Chicago’ draws inspiration from a moment in NBA history dubbed ‘the freezeout’: in 1985, playing in his first ever All-Star Game, MJ was reportedly denied the ball by established stars who wanted to embarrass the brash rookie. MJs sneaker boutique dresses the high-top in an OG-inspired palette, featuring white leather base with a black tick and red leather overlays in a subtle frozen finish. MJ’s signature is scrawled across the lateral heel, while a dual-branded patch adorns the sockliner. The sneaker’s tooling pairs a vintage off-white midsole with an icy translucent rubber outsole.
