The Air Jordan 1 'Deep Royal Blue' Joins the Rare Air Drop

Air Jodan 1 High Og Rare Air

Revived for 2025, the Jordan Brand's Rare Air line is a testament to the label's deep archive and ever-evolving design language. Rooted in the trial-and-error era of early-day samples—where shifting logos and evolving details defined the process—it remains a collector’s favourite, celebrated for its nod to Jordan history both in (and out) of the . Still going strong, the Jordan Brand is delivering again, with a confirmed drop date set for a second high-top model to complement the release.

Embodying a retro aesthetic, the AJ1 'Royal Blue' comes on an entirely white leather base with pops of black, 'Neutral Grey' and 'Muslin' offering a striking contrast. With perforated toe boxes for breathability and mesh tongues for improved comfort, there's no denying that the standouts lie in the details. This includes the 'Nike Air' Wings logo on the lateral collar and the Swoosh, which, when worn in, reveals a black Swoosh underneath.
