Nike SB and Jordan Brand are reconnecting once more for a collaborative drop. Following 2014’s tandem, the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG becomes the canvas once again. The drop will feature a choice of two colorways with one sharing a mix of court purple and university gold while the other is treated with light bone and black. Additional features include Nike SB branding taking the place of Nike Air branding on the tongue. Lastly, this year’s drop takes some inspiration from the Lance Mountain release with wear-away uppers that reveal a second colorway underneath – which is subtly teased if you take a close look at the sneaker’s edges.

Both Nike SB x Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG colorways will arrive on May 25 for $175 USD each at select Jordan Brand retailers and Nike SNKRS.

Air Jordan 1 enthusiasts can also take a look at its forthcoming “Yellow Toe” iteration.
