2022 Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG "Gorge Green" Buyer's Guide
Jordan Brand Looking To Release Another Air Jordan 1 Fall Favorite For 2022!
Fall is the season of brisk air and rich colors like the primary tone used on Jordan Brand’s latest iteration of the revered Air Jordan 1. Essentially, the next installment of the ‘CO.JP’ Jordans that have dropped in the past few years, we can expect this new colorway to drop in late December 2022.
Design, Colorway, & Materials
Featuring a white leather base, the shoe is contrasted by green leather overlays around the shoe’s toe, heel, and lace portions that all sit atop the white rubber midsole. Other notable design elements include the silver Nike swoosh, green tongue label, laces, and outsole.

Generally speaking, the Air Jordan 1 fits comfortably at true-to-size or maybe even a tad long.
I personally wear a US12 in most Jordan and Nike sneakers, but I opt to go down a half-size in Jordan 1s. This is mainly because I like to wear my shoes untied and I want to reduce the infamous toe-creasing that can occur when you wear your AJ1s too big.

Pre-release demand for this shoe hasn’t been too high, which suggests that this should be attainable on release day for most buyers.
With that in mind, you’ll definitely need to put in your footwork in to ensure you can cop a pair for retail.

Foot Locker/Champs
For the last couple of years, it has been nearly impossible for manual buyers to cop hyped sneakers from the Footlocker and Champs websites. If you want to give it a shot, be sure to be on the site about 10-15 minutes before the queue goes live, and cross your fingers for good luck.
Nike SNKRS app
Have your Nike SNKRS account ready to go ahead of the release by adding your payment and shipping info before the release.
Good luck!

I foresee most stores carrying this shoe to release them via a raffle - whether ticket or app. I would definitely recommend that you call your local store for specific details.
Store with ‘ticket’ raffles are more prone to being rigged, so keep that in mind and focus more on digital raffles. Althought digital raffles aren’t perfect, most big name stores have better raffles systems that are ‘harder’ to game by back actors aka resellers.
