Jordan Brand isn’t shy about dipping into the well of established Air Jordan colorways for future drops. We especially saw this with the Air Jordan 1 Retro Low OG with “Mocha” and “UNC To Chi,” and this strategy continues into 2025 with an upcoming release in March.
Here we get a first look at the upcoming Air Jordan 1 Retro Low OG “Obsidian/University Blue,” borrowed from the highly coveted 2019 release. By combining Obsidian Blue on the toe cap, lace collar, and Swoosh logo with timeless University Blue on the heel tab and heel, this precise execution of the original ’85 shoe provided an alternative take on the UNC Tar Heels’ blue uniforms.
However, 2019 and 2025 will be far apart in terms of demand; While the first high-end release commanded nearly four times the MSRP on the secondary market, the Air Jordan 1 Retro Low OG was easier to obtain after the release date.
Speaking of which, these products are expected to hit stores on March 22, 2025, but given the distance between us and that date, we expect an update with some potential changes on the Jordan release dates page.
