Union Los Angeles and Jordan Brand reunite for a fresh take on the Air Jordan 1. The Union x Air Jordan 1 High OG “Varsity Red” blends iconic elements from the “Chicago” and “Shadow” colorways. This vintage-inspired sneaker brings a mix of heritage and modern design.

The shoe features a crisp white leather base with Varsity Red overlays. The black Swoosh contrasts the upper, staying true to classic Jordan DNA. A grey and black ankle collar, inspired by the “Shadow” edition, adds a unique touch. Union’s signature exposed zigzag stitching connects the panels, delivering a deconstructed look. Additional branding includes the Wings logo, a yellow “UN/LA” tag, and a Nike Air-branded tongue with exposed foam padding. The pre-yellowed midsole enhances the vintage aesthetic, creating a worn-in appeal.
