Here's Your First Look at the Air Jordan 1 High OG "Royal Reimagined"

It's the "Lost & Found" hype all over again.

Without a shadow of of a doubt, the "Lost & Found" was the most popular shoe of 2022. An almost one-to-one copy of the original "Chicago" from 1985, just with a slightly pre-weathered aesthetic, sneakerheads across the globe were head over heels for this pair. With that said, it looks like Jordan Brand is planning to replicate this hype with the upcoming Air Jordan 1 High OG "Royal Reimagined" – and here's everything that we know so far.

The latest sneaker to hit the coveted "Reimagined" series after the Air Jordan 3 "White Cement" from March, this Air Jordan 1 takes inspiration from the original "Royal Blue" which made its grand debut all the way back in the mid '80s. Working on top of a slick black base, it's overlaid by bold blue panels throughout for that truly legendary aesthetic. With that said, unlike the OG, this drops the classic leather outfit in favor of a buttery suede construction that's soft and smooth to the touch.

A Nike Swoosh shoots across the sides, while the winged basketball insignia is stamped proudly on the collar. All of this then sits on top of a crisp white Air midsole, placing the finishing touches on the "Royal Reimagined."

Set to drop on November 4th, the Air Jordan 1 High OG "Royal Reimagined" will be available for the entire family. Expected to be a pretty tough cop, make sure you keep it locked at Ox Street for your best chance to secure your size. Let us know what you think of this upcoming colorway, and while you're here, you might as well take a closer look at the Bephie’s Beauty Supply x Union LA x Air Jordan 1 Footscape!
