[Photo from HDG.sales] The Air Jordan 1 High OG is one of the most iconic and popular sneakers in the world, and it has been released in many different colorways over the years. Some of the must-have styles are the original “Bred”, “Chicago”, and “Royal” colorways, which feature the classic red, white, and black or blue combinations that Michael Jordan wore on the court. These colorways are highly sought-after by collectors and fans, and they often sell out quickly whenever they are re-released.
Another must-have style is the “Shattered Backboard”, which is inspired by the orange and black jersey that Jordan wore when he shattered a backboard during an exhibition game in Italy in 1985. The shoe features a premium leather upper with a shattered glass graphic on the insole3. The “Shattered Backboard” colorway has been released in three different versions: the original in 2015, the “Reverse” in 2016, and the “3.0” in 2019.
Some of the rumored 2023 releases for the Air Jordan 1 High OG are the “Black Toe Reimagined” and the “Royal Reimagined”, which are expected to drop in late 2023 or early 2024. According to mock-ups, both shoes will have a similar color blocking as the original “Black Toe” and “Royal” colorways, but with some “Reimagined” details such as exposed foam, stitching, and cut-outs5. Another rumored release is the “True Blue”, which is expected to release on January 14th, 2023. The shoe will have a white leather base with blue and cement grey accents, reminiscent of the Air Jordan 3 “True Blue” that Jordan wore in the 1988 NBA All-Star Game
