A Nostalgic Remix Of The Classic “Chicago” AJ1 Is Arriving As A Holiday 2022 Release!
A retro iteration of the old-school classic, the Air Jordan 1 “Chicago” is now returning to centerstage after 7 years. The iconic colorway will now be known as “Lost and Found”, paying tribute to the mom-and-pop shops from the 80s. Every detail of the plays to the theme of finding a DS pair of “Chicagos” in the basements of a retail shop in beat-up boxes. This classic even comes in aged boxes with an AJKO lid hinting at the concept of “Lost and Found” behind the name.

Featuring the original color scheme with Varsity Red, Black, Muslin, and Sail colors, the pair mirrors the OG look distressedly. The sneaker begins with a Sail leather base under the bright Varsity Red overlays, while Black Swoosh and collar add a bit of drama to the silhouette with a Muslin tongue. Sail midsole over a Red outsole finishes off the vintage style design. Along with the special boxes, the retro details continue to the vintage-style invoice, throwback graphic paper, and sale stickers.

“Lost & Found” AJ1 FAQs
Answers to Common Questions
-
Generally speaking, the Air Jordan 1 fits comfortably at true-to-size or maybe even a tad long.
I personally wear a US12 in most Jordan and Nike sneakers, but I opt to go down a half-size in Jordan 1s. This is mainly because I like to wear my shoes untied and I want to reduce the infamous toe-creasing that can occur when you wear your AJ1s too big.

Rumors floating around the internet are suggesting that these will be the most mass-produced Jordan 1s ever released (500k pairs worldwide). Assuming this is true, the demand for this shoe will be so high that it feels like a “limited” release.
With that in mind, you’ll definitely need to put in your footwork in to ensure you can cop a pair for retail.
-
Dick’s Sporting Goods
Assuming they’ll be releasing this pair, Dick’s will be one of the better ‘manually friendly’ sites to use when trying to cop a pair of the “Lost & Founds” for retail. As a tip, be sure to be on the site about 10-15 minutes before the queue goes live, refresh their release page every half minute and cross your fingers for good luck.
Foot Locker/Champs
For the last couple of years, it has been nearly impossible for manual buyers to cop hyped sneakers from the Footlocker and Champs websites. If you want to give it a shot, be sure to be on the site about 10-15 minutes before the queue goes live, and cross your fingers for good luck.
Nike SNKRS app
Have your Nike SNKRS account ready to go ahead of the release by adding your payment and shipping info before the release.
Good luck!
-
I foresee most stores carrying this shoe to release them via a raffle - whether ticket or app. I would definitely recommend that you call your local store for specific details.
Store with ‘ticket’ raffles are more prone to being rigged, so keep that in mind and focus more on digital raffles. Althought digital raffles aren’t perfect, most big name stores have better raffles systems that are ‘harder’ to game by back actors aka resellers.
