UPDATE 11/21/25: Official photos of the Air Jordan 1 High OG “Sail/Elephant Print” have been added below. A release is expected December 1st, 2025.

Original Story 9/27/25:
The Air Jordan 1 High OG “Elephant Print Swoosh” is a December 2025 release that reimagines a classic silhouette through a bold, creative lens. It marries heritage with modern updates to stand out from previous Air Jordan 1 releases.

Shaped in Sail, University Red, Pale Ivory, and Coconut Milk, the shoe has a versatile neutral canvas accented by striking details. It features the elephant print Swoosh, one of Jordan Brand’s most recognizable design patterns, and embroidered Jumpman logos on the toe box in place of a traditional leather patch.

There is also a milky translucent outsole that conceals large “Flight” lettering underfoot, a connection to Jordan’s timeless branding. Vintage-inspired exposed foam tongues and red Nike Air tags/heel stitching offer just enough contrast to the muted palette. It’s the blend of old and new, known and unexpected, that make this release so exciting.

Fans of the Air Jordan 1 who love a release that tells a story will be intrigued by this one’s many cross-era references. The elephant print is a direct callback to Jordan’s golden era, while the embroidered Jumpman logo has a more experimental, future-forward feel. We imagine this pair will fuel much discussion in the sneaker community.
