Air Jordan 1 Retro 'Royal' (2026)

The Air Jordan 1 Retro 'Royal' brings back the black and blue colourway Michael Jordan never wore in an NBA game, and which became one of the most recognised Air Jordan 1s regardless. Black leather covers the base with Varsity Royal on the toe box, Swooshes, ankle and heel, over a white midsole and a Royal Blue outsole. The blue leather carries more texture than the 2017 pair, most visibly around the collar and the back of the shoe, and the build is the standard High OG rather than the '85 shape. The packaging is where Jordan Brand went further, using images from the 1985 Chuck Kuhn photoshoot in Oregon that produced the Flight Guy poster, the photograph that made this colourway famous in the first place.
