League of Legends Air Jordan: Release Date and Price

No release date for the merchandise has been announced, however, it makes sense that the date would be right around when Worlds starts.

As for the price, normal Air Jordan 1s cost around $120, so expect the special edition ones to cost more. The jerseys should also cost upwards of $80, as that is the price for traditional Nike sports jerseys. Both of these prices are pure speculation and not confirmed in any way.
