Each year, Jordan Brand finds a balance between past, present and future. Whether it be introducing a new silhouette such as 2022’s upcoming Air Jordan 37 or retroing a classic like the Air Jordan 1 High OG “Chicago Reimagined,” the label constantly seeks to connect itself to its expanding timeline. Now, it revisits not only the brand’s roots in the Air Jordan 1 but a familiar color palette that popped up just last year. Landing on the Air Jordan 1 Mid, a variant of the original Jordan Brand model, colors reminiscent of last year’s Air Jordan 1 “Hyper Royal” make a return.

Kicking off this pair, a white leather base is outfitted with dusty blue suede overlays while a deeper blue hits the laces and lining. A light gray then is carried at the semi-translucent outsole and Swooshes and the other part of the standard Air Jordan 1 sole unit is made up of white throughout the midsole. To complete this look, red accents land on the Wings logo and Jumpman on the tongue. Air Jordan 1 Mid SE French Blue Light
