Air Jordan 1 "Homage to Home" Release Details

This post may contain affiliate links. Please read our disclosure policy.

Last year, Nike introduced the Air Jordan 1 “Homage to Home” as a sample not anticipated to release at retail. Fast forward to spring 2018, and the limited edition shoe is set to drop this weekend. Whatever caused this shift in position, Air Jordan 1 fans are ultimately the recipients of this melding of two classic OG colorways.

Joining “Banned” and “Chicago” iterations of the 1985 hallmark, the shoe stands as a tribute to MJ’s legacy both on the court and in the city of Chicago. Thus, the limited edition release will span just 2,300 individually numbered pairs and release exclusively in Chicago this weekend on April 21.

Following the commemorative release in the Windy City this weekend, the “Homage to Home” Jordan 1s will drop again in May. It’s worth noting that the May release won’t feature special details like “From” and “For” at the heel tabs. Stay tuned for more on details on the upcoming second version.
