News keeps pouring in surrounding the Air Jordan 1‘s 40th anniversary celebration in 2025. In addition to a major return with the Air Jordan 1 “Bred” and a retake via the Jordan 1 “Patent Panda,” more OG editions seem to be factoring into next year’s slate by way of the Air Jordan 1 High OG “Varsity Red/Dark Powder Blue.”

Especially taken alongside news of the Air Jordan 1 “Deep Royal Blue,” this pair seems to continue an emerging theme of mashing up original ’85 releases. Though a mix of “Sail/Varsity Red/Dark Powder Blue/Pale Vanilla” is the only info confirmed at this early stage, were that trend to continue, “UNC” and “Chicago” could be in the spotlight here. That combination calls to mind past editions that evoked Mike’s jump to the pros like the Air Jordan 1 “Fearless” or Jordan 1 “NC to Chi.” Regardless of any potential narrative ties, an additional Air Jordan 1 release being added to next year’s slate so early means that fans of the silhouette will be well fed for the model’s celebration.

The Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG “Varsity Red/Dark Powder Blue” is currently slated for a Spring 2025 release as a women’s exclusive. Keep this article and our Jordan Release Dates 2024 page within reach for the latest info as it emerges.
