Update March 28, 2022: Earlier this year, news that the Air Jordan 2 would be touching down in the OG ‘Chicago’ makeup began circulating, with original specs and vintage packaging. Now, @zsneakerheadz has let slip that they’ll be arriving on October 22. It's already set to be a megalithic month for the ‘Chicago’ because of another big Jordan Brand release. No official word has come through as of yet.

Jordan Brand has been the main topic of the sneaker rumour mill over the past few weeks, with word travelling that a few OG Jordan Brand silhouettes will be arriving in 2022 in their OG colourway. It all started when whispers spread mentioning that we are receiving the Air Jordan 1 ‘Chicago’ later this year! It’s okay to be excited, however we’ll stay skeptical because there’s been no actual evidence as of yet.

The Air Jordan 2 is reportedly said to be touching down in OG form and also in the ‘Chicago’ colourway. Once again, the news comes through jointly from @zsneakerheadz and Sneaker Files who allegedly have an inside source hinting at the release.

It would make sense if the Air Jordan 2 ‘Chicago’ made a retro return this year as Jordan Brand has made it a priority silhouette, pushing it into the hypesphere with plenty of colabs. Allegedly arriving in OG form, it probably means that it’ll arrive looking exactly the same as the original 1986 iteration and arrive with the same box set up. Following its initial debut, the ‘Chicago’ returned in 1994 to much fan fare in both High and Low silhouettes and later came back in 2004 however fans were not happy due to the addition of black piping. The last time the ‘Chicago’ was seen on shelves was back in 2010 as a QF version.

No definitive proof that the Air Jordan 2 ‘Chicago’ will return this year has surfaced as of yet. However, if rumours are anything to go by then you can expect these bad boys to touch down around the same time as the Air Jordan 1 ‘Chicago’ toward the end of 2022. Stay locked to SF for updates!
