The Final fragment design x Union LA x Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG Has Been Revealed

Although 2025 marks the 40th anniversary of the Air Jordan 1, Jordan Brand isn’t slowing down in 2026. We were blessed to get an all-new Union Air Jordan 1 project at the top of the year, and have already seen two new pairs from the LA-based retailer in collaboration with Japanese streetwear titan fragment design, one in White Black and another in Sport Royal. Rounding out the trio’s collection of AJ 1s is a colorway that combines both collaborators’ best work into one.

The pair continues the ultra-premium build found on previous Union LA AJ 1s, with a combination of tumbled and smooth leather alongside hairy suede. Black paneling hits the mudguard, eyelets, and Swoosh, each finished in tumbled leather, while the black collar underlay is rendered in hairy suede. A Chicago-esque varsity red hue is used on the collar overlay, which features the signature enlarged Air Jordan Wings logo found on the OG Union AJ 1 project as well as the UN/LA tag. Overstitching on the collar, exposed foam on the tongue, a split color design on the nylon tongue, and two-tone white and black laces help finish the Union contributions to the model.
