Release Reminder: Air Jordan 1 Retro ‘Rookie of the Year’

Posted on Nov 15, 2018 in Jordan Brand

With the ‘Unbanned’ documentary releasing this year, it’s no surprise for Jordan Brand to bring out a bunch of Air Jordan 1s this 2018. One of the key and much awaited releases this year is the Air Jordan 1 ‘Rookie of the Year’. Sure, it’s a new colorway and doesn’t fall under the “OG” banner, but it sure pays homage to MJ’s storied career. While we commonly associate the Air Jordan 1 with the ‘banned’ story, JB looks at the moment when MJ won the Rookie of the Year award during his rookie season. Jordan Brand took inspiration from the shirt Michael wore during his acceptance speech. The ROY Air Jordan features the OG build with premium leather and detached ankle collar flaps. On the inside of these flaps, you’ll see Jordan’s rookie year stats and the actual quote during his acceptance speech.

The Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG ‘Rookie of the Year’ drops this Saturday, November 17th. Titan is offering the shoe via electronic raffle today. Make sure to secure your pair before it’s too late. The Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG ‘ROY’ retails for Php 8,095.
