UPDATE 06/03/2026: The Virgil Abloh website is now accepting registrations for their membership program, with students and creatives also being able to request the “Archive Toolkit”, a set of free resources refreshed periodically throughout the year. The website also allows pre-orders for the upcoming “The Virgil Reader, Volume 001”. Celebrating the website launch, 100 Archive Toolkit subscribers will be gifted a pair of the Air Jordan 1 High OG x V.A.A. and a copy of The Virgil Reader, Volume 001. According to some industry sources, it’s likely the pair will have an early release on the 21st of March, followed by a wider release on the 28th of March. Currently the release date has not been confirmed by Nike or Virgil Abloh Archive. Check out detailed images below (via GOAT) as we wait for more details about the upcoming release.
UPDATE 11/12/2025: According to zSneakerHeadz, the new Off-White x Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG "Alaska" is releasing on March 28, 2026. Nike has not yet confirmed the exact release date. The pair comes with the text “V.A.A. for NIKE” (Virgil Abloh Archive) instead of “OFF-WHITE for NIKE”.
UPDATE 02/05/2025: The release of the Off-White x Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG has been confirmed. According to internal Nike files, the pair is scheduled to release during Winter 2025. The model comes in a "White / White" color scheme, which indicates that this is the "Triple White" pair that initially released exclusively in Europe. Stay up to date with limited-edition sneaker releases by following Sneaker Market on Google News.
Rumors about the collaboration first surfaced from Elden Monitors on X (formerly Twitter) a few months ago. There, he mentioned that the two brands would collaborate again soon. Later, he also claimed that the famous Air Jordan 1 "Canary Yellow" would be released, but that information turned out not to be true. However, a new product code recently appeared in the Air Jordan release calendar for 2025. Also, on Virgil Abloh's birthday (on September 30, 2024), Frank Cooke posted two images of a white prototype pair of Air Jordan 1 x Off-White. Frank was part of the Jordan Brand team until 2018, and he was also responsible for the Off-White collaborations. Recently, he announced that he is returning to Nike.
At the moment we do not know whether this is the Europe-exclusive "Triple White" color scheme that was originally released in 2018. At the same time, it is possible that this is a new color scheme inspired by the prototype posted by Frank Cooke. Recently we also saw a sample with a black upper posted online. As a result, we can expect anything from these two brands. The pair is referred to as "ALASKA" in certain internal documents. It is possible that this is a reference to Virgil Abloh’s creative agency "Alaska Alaska". We expect to learn more details starting in 2025.
When is the Jordan Brand x Off-White Air Jordan 1 Retro High releasing?
The Off-White x Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG is set to release during Fall or Winter 2025. At the moment, we do not know whether the pair will release only on Nike.com and the Off-White website, or if it will also be available at Air Jordan Retro partner retailers. For now, the two brands have not yet confirmed the rumors. In general, Nike avoids confirming rumors about limited-edition releases. However, we expect to hear more information about this release starting in 2025. See below images of the sample posted by Frank Cooke and of the three Off-White x Air Jordan 1 pairs officially released so far while we wait for more details about the launch.
