The Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG "Prototype" showcases sharply contrasting color stories between the collar and the rest of the upper. The latter combines a white leather base with reinforced overlays in tan nubuck and grey and black leather. Vibrant shades of blue distinguish the collar, marked with wraparound perforated detailing that indicates where wearers will need to cut if they opt to convert the high-top silhouette into a low-top. An orange mini-Swoosh is embroidered atop the toe box, matching the woven Nike Air tag affixed to the black nylon tongue.
