Update: The Air Jordan 1 High OG “Self-Expression” is one of many new colorways of the AJ1 to be releasing in celebration of the model’s 40th anniversary. Previewed previously below, we speculated that it may feature a wear-away upper. Now, new early images of the sneaker have been shared, confirming that various colors are present beneath the black paint. Everything from red and royal blue to magenta and yellow appear under the initial layer. This element offers ample customization options and ties into the overarching “Self-Expression” theme. Release is now expected to take place on July 12 via Nike SNKRS and select retailers at a starting price of $180 USD.
Update: Jordan Brand’s celebration of 40 years of the Air Jordan 1 continues to take place with more colorways and collaborations en route. One pair that we discussed at the beginning of the year is a new “Black/Muslin” colorway. The pair has since surfaced, revealing its “Self-Expression” name, updated release date, and offering an early glance at what to expect. Its leather upper appears in black with “Muslin” coating the midsole. Upon closer inspection of the shoe, hints of white, red, and blue are all included at the edges of the upper’s structure, indicating that it may have a wear-away finish. Release is now expected to take place on August 9 via Nike SNKRS and select retailers at a starting price of $180 USD.
Original Story: A new year is upon us and it’s time for Jordan Brand to commemorate 40 years of the legendary Air Jordan 1. For those who didn’t keep track through 2024, there’s an exciting mix of collaborations, OG colorways and new looks on the way for this year. Standouts include another Union LA x Air Jordan 1 High OG, the return of the Air Jordan 1 High ‘85 “Bred” and the two-shoe “Rare Air” pack of Air Jordan 1 High OGs.

Adding to the list of rumored releases for 2025, SneakerMarketRO has reported that a “Black/Muslin” version of the Air Jordan 1 High OG will be arriving this September. While we lack a physical preview of the shoe — a mock-up based on the color scheme is included above — it will sport both “Black” and “Muslin” detailing throughout its build.
At the time of writing, Jordan Brand has not yet indicated that a “Black/Muslin” colorway of the Air Jordan 1 High OG will be dropping next year. Stay tuned for updates, including a first look at the pair, as we currently expect it to release on September 30 via Nike SNKRS and select retailers at a starting price of $180 USD.
