The Nike SB x Air Jordan 1 "LA to Chicago" is one of two collaborative colorways released by Nike's skateboarding division and Jordan Brand in 2019. The unique editions of the Jordan 1 have the leather on the upper painted in one color combination. A second color scheme is hidden underneath and is revealed as the top layer of paint is worn away from skating. This "LA to Chicago" edition of the Air Jordan 1 features a purple, white, and yellow combination that is inspired by a rare original sample of the shoe from 1985. At the sides of the purple leather paneling you can see that the base layer is red.
