Amidst all the ASG releases and the celebration of MJ's 50th birthday this past weekend, the Jordan Brand also reissued one of the most coveted OG Air Jordan 1s ever.

Released for the first time since we last saw them in 2001, this year's version of the Black/Varsity Royal pleased many Air Jordan fans with their premium leather, classic Nike branding and OG-inspired packaging. 

Long awaited by many, the Black/Varsity Royal Air Jordan 1 Retro High released this past weekend in extremely limited numbers and was the first AJ 1 of the year to not release on NikeStore. Many reputable Jordan Brand accounts across the nation were also left empty handed for this release
