Michael Jordan’s Air Jordan 1 Low Gets a New ‘Game Royal’ Release This Weekend
More from Footwear News
A fan-favorite colorway is appearing on the Air Jordan 1 Low this weekend, and the entire family will be able to get it on the action.
The Air Jordan 1 Low OG will release Saturday in a “Game Royal” colorway. The upcoming pair uses the same color scheme seen on 2018’s “Game Royal” Air Jordan 1 High but drops the ankle collar down to a low-top cut. The leather shoe is predominantly two-tone white and royal blue with black filling in the Swoosh, shoelaces and liner.
It’s worth noting that this Air Jordan 1 Low bears the sneaker’s “OG” branding, which is differentiated by using a look and details closer to the original 1985 version. The tongue features classic “Nike Air” branding in place of the Jordan Brand Jumpman logo seen on non-OG variations, and many enthusiasts consider the OG iterations to be of higher quality.
Although this white-based “Game Royal” colorway is not an original release, it’s based on one. The black-based “Royal” Air Jordan 1 High was one of styles that was released during the model’s ’85 run and it has been a fan-favorite look in the decades since. Although Michael Jordan didn’t wear the colorway in an NBA game, he did lace them them during a promotional Nike photoshoot captured by photographer Chuck Kuhn.
Looking ahead, the Air Jordan 1 Low will continue to be a fixture of 2025’s releases with a new three-way collaboration between Travis Scott, Fragment Design and Jordan Brand in the works.
The upcoming Air Jordan 1 Low OG “Game Royal” will be released Nov. 30 at 10 a.m. ET from Nike’s SNKRS platform and can also be found at select Jordan Brand retailers. Adult sizes retail for $140, big kids’ are priced at $120, little kids’ at $75 and toddler pairs at $65.
