The Swoosh label’s subsidiary Jumpman business is preparing another rendition of its OG Air Jordan 1 High model. The fresh design, which is expected to be introduced in the coming year, will feature the Rare Air version of the Air Jordan 1 shoe featuring the “Deep Royal Blue” colorway.

The first look at the design was offered by Elden Monitors’ social media page. The upcoming shoe will be clad in a White/Black-Neutral Grey-Deep Royal Blue-Muslin hue combination.

The Air Jordan 1 High OG Rare Air “Deep Royal Blue” colorway is reportedly gearing up for its launch sometime in April 2025. These Rare Air high-top shoe designs will be dropped in multiple sizing categories, including men, grade school, preschool, and toddler, which will be marked with selling prices of $180, $140, $85, and $70, respectively.

They will be accessible via the online and physical shops of Nike, besides affiliated stores of the Jumpman business.

Michael Jordan’s Jumpman label which kickstarted in 1985, is ready to commemorate its 40th anniversary in 2025. Therefore, the sneaker label will supposedly offer a greater variety of Air Jordan 1 High silhouettes as it was the first model of their sneaker collection.

Although several other designs joined the numbered Jordan series over the decades, the popularity of the first model prevailed.

The Air Jordan 1 High OG Rare Air “Deep Royal Blue” shoe will join the brand’s celebrations. This fresh Rare Air variant of the Jordan 1 design is likely to have an improved leather fabrication.

The mudguard, eye stays, and heel section toppings will feature the eponymous deep royal blue accents, while the toe box, midfoot surface, and collar details are all white. Black touches appear on the nylon tongue flaps, Swoosh, and revised Wings emblem on the collar area.

On this variant, the Air Jordan lettering is changed with Nike Air on the left shoe, while the right shoe retains the characteristic logo. The collar's foundation boasts a neutral gray suede texture. Additional Nike insignia can be found on the top of the tongue flap as well as on the insole.

Rounding out the basketball shoe is the black rubber outer sole unit bonded together with the muslin rubber midsole to complete the style.
