Sneaker News Good news: an Off-White x Air Jordan 1 is releasing in 2025, joining a mammoth 2025 Jordan release schedule.
A style code for the next chapter in one of the most defining collaborations in the Jumpman’s history has emerged, with plenty of insider sources (@MrUnloved1s, @sneakermarketro) backing up this seismic breaking news. There had been rumors that the notorious “Canary” colorway would be dropping sometime next year; those rumors were quickly shot down.
There is no confirmation of what is releasing, but there’s some speculation given the confirmed color code that it could be similar to the unreleased, unfinished prototype sample that has been on display at art exhibits centered around Off-White x Nike footwear that were still under construction. A release of a new design not created by Virgil would likely be viewed as illegitimate in the eyes of Off-White and Jordan fans alike.
This is obviously major news not just for the health of the collaborative partnership, but of the Air Jordan 1. Once at the forefront of the global sneaker movement, the AJ1 has since taken a nosedive in popularity, demand, and consumer interest due to over-saturation of the market, lack of creativity, and repetitive practices. The Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG, once the Jumpman’s premiere Retro product offering that would command nearly double the MSRP upon release, has now gone the opposite route as it sits patiently on sales racks.
Virgil Abloh pioneered the Off-White x Nike, Inc. partnership back in 2016 with the launch of The: 10, a collective of the ten very best of Nike’s past and present models reimagined by the influential visionary. Recognized for his “3% rule”, Abloh is best known for his impactful tweaks to existing products; this method has influenced an entire generation of young creatives and artists who are in business today.
