And the closer we get to 2021, the more images of the originally rumoured sneakers emerge. Now, new info on the Air Jordan 1 KO "Chicago" has just come out as well as a new image to boot.

The Jordan has been almost completely reconstructed. The lightweight base is combined with red panels and a polished black leather wraps the collar and Swooshes. We'll keep an eye out for new images and continue to keep you updated. The sneakers are expected to drop in spring 2021.

This year, the "Chicago" colourway has been revived many times, and another classic could be released next. If the rumours are true, the Air Jordan 1 KO "Chicago" will be released in just a few months.

Originally, the Air Jordan 1 KO "Chicago" dropped in 1986, and it was not until 2010 that the Jordan celebrated its return. Apparently, we don't have to wait another 24 years, as another comeback is supposedly planned for 2021.

The sneakers have the typical Chicago colours and put them right on a canvas. White paints the base, while red and black meet the Swooshes, overlays, and the other elements.

The Air Jordan 1 KO "Chicago" will supposedly be released in 2021 and will drop at Nike and selected retailers at a price of about £120.
