Update: Jordan Brand employees confirm the Air Jordan 1 “Royal Satin” is not releasing in NYC.

This past weekend, Jordan Brand surprised customers of Houston and Atlanta by releasing a limited edition run of the Air Jordan 1 “Royal Satin” at Active Athlete and Walter’s. While not as scarce as the Banned Satin 1s, the Air Jordan 1 “Royal Satin” is still a hotly coveted item and currently fetches top dollar on the secondary market.

Rumors of an NYC release of the Royal Satin 1 are swirling around, so if true, Jordan Brand could have a special pop-up shop ready, or they might just drop it at one of their outposts such as 45 Grand or Nike SoHo. Considering the Royal Satins dropped at their retail partners, a surprise release at top-tier sneaker boutiques such as Concepts NYC or KITH is possible as well. Consider this: the Jordan Brand Classic is this Friday and KITH Brooklyn is just a few blocks away.

Full disclaimer: the NYC release of the Royal Satins is just a rumor at this point and what is mentioned above is purely conjecture. We’ll update you on our Twitter and Instagram account should we learn more.
