The sneaker world has been on a rollercoaster for the past few months, and the destination is finally clear: another highly-anticipated collaboration between fragment design, Travis Scott, and Jordan Brand has officially landed. Rumors have swirled for over a year, but the final, coveted piece of news confirms that the iconic trio's latest take on the Air Jordan 1 Low OG is here, and it's a must-have for any serious collector.
This new low-top silhouette, officially dubbed the fragment design x Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 Low OG, continues the legendary partnership that first dropped jaws in 2021. The design sticks to a familiar blueprint while introducing a fresh aesthetic, featuring a sophisticated color palette of Sail, Black, Muslin, and Military Blue.
What instantly grabs attention is the masterful blend of signature elements. The upper is crafted with premium white-grained leather and sail panels, providing a clean, classic canvas. However, the sneaker truly comes alive with the accents of Military Blue a shade synonymous with Hiroshi Fujiwara’s fragment design. Of course, no La Flame collaboration would be complete without his defining feature: the iconic reverse Swoosh, which stands out on the lateral side, drenched in that signature Fragment blue. Subtle, co-branded hits finalize the design, with Cactus Jack branding on the left heel and the Wings logo joined by fragment's lightning bolt on the right.
The Ultimate Scramble: Hijacked in Tokyo Bay
After months of speculation and varying rumored release dates, the final details confirmed a unique initial launch strategy. While a broader release remains a hope for many, the shoe is dropping first as an event exclusive at a special activation in Japan.

This event is designed to seamlessly blend the worlds of fragment design, Cactus Jack, and Jordan Brand, giving attendees a chance to secure the sneakers.
