While the early 2020s were littered with Air Jordan 1 High releases (and demand was at an all-time high), Jordan Brand has switched its strategy regarding MJ’s first model. Fewer releases have been added to the release calendar, even going into 2026. Joining the women’s Pale Ivory Pro Green rendition and the special edition version of the AJ 1 High ‘85 Bred for Holiday 2025 is a Sail University Red color scheme.
As of this writing, no images of the Sail University Red color scheme have appeared. We do know the official color scheme features sail, university red, pale ivory, coconut milk, and phantom. Most of these hues indicate that we’ll get a vintage-inspired and pre-aged version of the Jordan 1. We’ve created a speculative mock-up that shows what the sneaker could potentially look like.
The upper is coated in sail and pale ivory hues across its leather panels, while accenting university red hues are located on the Swoosh, heel, and collar overlays. More pops of red are found on the Nike Air text on the woven tongue label. Final details include tonal laces, a coconut milk-shaded rubber midsole, and a university red rubber outsole.
The Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG Sail University Red will release Holiday 2025 through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Available in full-family sizing, the retail price is set at $185 (men), $140 (GS), $85 (PS), and $70 (TD).
