Name: Air Jordan 1 High OG “Self-Expression”
Colorway: Black/Black/Muslin
SKU: DZ5485-002
MSRP: $180 USD
Release Date: August 9
Where to Buy: Nike

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.
