The story of the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG starts on the court in 1985, redefining the basketball shoe’s relationship to style as a symbol of triumph and culture. Launched in February 2019, this ‘Couture’ edition takes cues from luxury Italian sports cars with a racing stripe.

It features a Black leather upper with a Red Banned-like bold paint mark covering the Swoosh logo. Finishing of the design are Nike Air tongue labels with matching Black Wings on the upper ankle atop a Muslin-colored rubber sole.Perhaps the message of this design is that despite the league trying to cover up the brand, it only contributed to the marketing as the Air Jordan 1 stood out and became one of the most well-known pop-culture references in sports and sneaker history.
