Unfortunately, folks looking forward to the return of the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG "Black Metallic Gold" will have to continue to wait. This colorway is not the AJ 1 High OG scheduled to release in Fall 2023. Instead, a new colorway of the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG will be released.
Last seen in November 2020, it looks like one of the rarest original Air Jordan 1 colorways of all-time is set to return. According to J23app, the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG "Black Metallic Gold" is rumored to release as a part of Jordan Brand's Fall 2023 Lineup. While all that has been announced is a colorway description, its safe to say that we will be getting some sort of iteration of this classic AJ 1, whether placement is in its traditional places or not. Also, at this time we do not know what material it will be made of, but it's a true retro, it will be covered in patent leather. Only time will tell, and anything can happen as we are still a long ways away from their release date.
The new Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG is currently set to release on September 16th, 2023. It will drop at Nike, via the SNKRS app, and at select Jordan Brand retailers worldwide, both in-store and online. Coming in men's sizing, retail is set at $180.
