The Jordan 1 Retro Low OG University Red is part of Nike’s 2023 holiday collection and builds upon the legacy of the original AF1. This retro-inspired sneaker draws inspiration from varsity sports styles of the ‘80s while boasting an upgraded colorway.
Although the shoe bears a resemblance to the Jordan 1 Retro Low White Varsity Red launched in 2015, the University Red is brighter than the Varsity Red. A clean white hue drives the color palette and can be found on the leather upper, overlays, and tongue. The Swoosh, inner liner, heel, and rubber outsole feature pops of University Red. On the bottom, the foam midsole and encapsulated Air unit add cushioning without weighing down the shoe.
Our experts at StockX love the Wings logo embroidered in white thread onto the heel, which complements the Nike Air branding on the tongue. The Jordan 1 Retro Low OG University Red was released on October 13, 2023, and retailed at $140.
