Earlier this year, we found out about the Dior x Air Jordan 1 collaboration that was set to drop this spring. However, in a statement published today, the Dior said it "has decided to postpone its international draw for the launch of the Air Dior capsule collection realized in collaboration with Jordan Brand."

So, to help keep people safe during the coronavirus outbreak, the drop is being delayed until further notice. 

Air Dior pop-up shops were planned to appear in major cities like Los Angeles, NYC,  London, Paris, Hong Kong, and more, but the companies haven't revealed any new dates for these yet.

Other Release Date Changes

According to zSneakerHeadz, the Air Dior drops aren't the only releases being delayed.
