The Air Jordan 1 High OG “Pollen” is an August 2021 release by Jordan Brand that draws favorably from the color block and design of a classic Dunk style. The shoe we’re referring to is the Dunk High “Iowa” or “Goldenrod,” a two-tone, black-and-yellow colorway of the retro basketball silhouette that also inspired the incredibly rare “Wu-Tang” Dunk from 1999. The “Pollen” displays a similar black-and-yellow color block to both the “Iowa” and “Wu-Tang” Dunk. Buttery black tumbled leather appears on the perforated toe, mid-panel, and collar. The forefoot, eyelets, collar, heel, and Swoosh display a Pollen leather construction. A black “Wings” logo resides on the collar and white “Air” with a black Swoosh appears on the yellow tongue tag on the black nylon tongue. Yellow laces and a white midsole and Pollen-colored rubber outsole round out the design of this timeless look for Michael Jordan’s first signature shoe.
