This creative union presents us with a fascinating Air Jordan 1 High OG, a bold masterpiece that promises to leave a unique mark on the summer of 2023.
The story
The partnership between Union Los Angeles and Jumpman has already made waves in the past, particularly with the "Black Toe" and "Blue Toe" versions of the AJ 1 High.
Since then, these two major players have remained active, regularly spicing up the sneaker universe. After their collaboration on the AJKO (Air Jordan 1) in February 2023, featuring the Neural Grey and Union Sail colorways, the announcement of their new creation is ramping up excitement.
The drop
Mark your calendar for August 26 to be ready to grab this gem. Initially available on UnionLosAngeles.com, the pair will also be accessible via a raffle on SNKRS before hitting selected other retailers. As for the price, this unique piece is expected to be around €200.
The pair
The iconic silhouette of the Air Jordan 1 undergoes an intriguing transformation, subtly evoking the famous Nike Air Footscape Woven.
The redesigned AJ 1 High OG gives off a DIY vibe with a carefully arranged weave around the upper, from the mudguard to the heel. Union’s signature touch is evident in the turquoise stitching, yellow accents on the laces, the UN/LA tag, and the borders of the panels.
The emblematic Wings logo in gray proudly sits on the quarter panel, in harmony with the traditional lateral swoosh and the ankle collar. A beige-aged sole adds the final touch to the design, echoing other successful collaborations between Union and Jordan.
