As Union LA gears up to release its next Air Jordan 1 collaboration in the coming days, the Chris Gibbs-helmed brand has unveiled a sample iteration of its mishmash Jordan 1 design.

On display yesterday at a private event at Union LA to celebrate the launch of the duo's upcoming project was a previously unseen Air Jordan 1 collab. The sneaker retains the chopped-up look and loose stitching on the collar, and combines the original "UNC" and "Royal" colorways of the silhouette. Featured on this pair are a set of bright yellow shoelaces and an aged sail midsole.

This "UNC" and "Royal" Union x Air Jordan 1 High is currently billed as a sample and isn't expected to be released to the public. Grab a closer look at the sneaker below.
