How to Buy: Virgil Abloh Archive™ x Air Jordan 1 High OG "Alaska"
UPDATE 3.21.26 The Virgil Abloh Archives x Air Jordan 1 High OG raffle is live here for online shipping. The raffle closes on Monday.
April is shaping up as a steady month for Jordan Brand, with a mix of Retro returns, new concepts, and seasonal drops across both Men’s and Women’s sizing. Anchored by familiar silhouettes and supported by broader Nike rollout strategies, the schedule reflects a balance between heritage and consistency. From updated classics to quieter additions, the month continues to build out the wider Nike calendar while tying back to our Air Jordan Release Dates hub for real-time tracking.
April opens with the Virgil Abloh Archive’s Air Jordan 1 High OG "Alaska," linking back to Off-White’s lasting impact on Nike and Jordan Brand. The Air Jordan 1 anchors the month with a more conceptual approach, pairing familiar construction with subtle design cues tied to Abloh’s archive. As a Retro-styled release with a modern context, it sets the tone for what follows across Men’s and Women’s Jordan Releases for the month of April.
A strong run of Retro releases follows, including the Air Jordan 5 "White Metallic" and the Air Jordan 11 Low "University Blue." The Air Jordan 11 continues its Low OG run here, offering a cleaner seasonal option, while the Air Jordan 5 returns with Nike Air for the first time. The Women’s Air Jordan 3 Retro "Orange Citrus" also re-enters the lineup this month, answering long-awaited calls from collectors for decades. Across Men’s and Women’s pairs, these releases lean into recognizable builds without major changes.

Both will be offered in Men's sizing, as well as options in toddler, preschool, and grade school sizing.
