You already know that the "Metallic Blue" Air Jordan 1 Lows are on the horizon, but what if we told you that the O.G. colorway was getting a high top retro too?

Judging by this leaked image, you can expect the "Metallic Blue" Air Jordan 1 High to return in retro form for the very first time since its original 1986 release. Based around a white leather upper, these Jordan 1s feature hits of shimmering navy blue at the Swoosh, Wings logo, and around the collar.

These have been a long time coming. In 2009, Jordan Brand brought back a few "Metallic" colorways, but they didn't receive the O.G. "Nike Air" treatment and this blue colorway was notably absent.

Now, for 2016, the brand will make things right with a proper retro of one of the more slept on yet undeniably dope original colorways. Stay tuned for more details on these including more potential "Metallic" Jordan 1 Retros.
