Up Close With the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG "University Blue"

The Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG "University Blue" has been on our radar for quite some time now. Ever since it first leaked at the start of the summer we've been impatiently waiting to see some in-hand shots, and now, thanks to sneaker insider @us11hustla, we've finally got what we've been asking all this time for.

Working on a premium white tumbled leather base, buttery smooth "University Blue" leather adorns the toe box, heel, and lacing system, offering up just the right amount of contrast. Stealthy black accents make their way to the laces, Swoosh, and the winged basketball, the latter of which is finely debossed onto the ankle of the Air Jordan 1.

Shifting your focus towards the midsole, you'll find a crispy clean white Nike Air unit that provides comfort and cushioning both on and off the court. To round it all off, this is lined with a complementary blue rubber outsole, finishing the truly iconic design.

Unfortunately we're going to have to wait until February 20th for the Nike Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG "University Blue" to drop, but it will definitely be worth it. Let us know what you think of this colourway, and while you're here, you might as well take your first look at the rumoured retro of the Jordan 1 High '85 "Neutral Grey"!
