AIR JORDAN 1 MID, BETWEEN HERITAGE AND THE EVOLUTION OF THE JUMPMAN
AIR JORDAN 1 MID: A POWERFUL STORY
A true symbol of hip-hop and sports culture, the story of the Air Jordan 1 is as rich as that of the iconic Air Force 1. Praised by both enthusiasts and long-time collectors, this pair is simply what is called a "must-have" that transcends trends. This retro-looking sneaker, originally designed for the basketball court, was created in 1985 by Peter Moore, the renowned designer also known for creating the Equipment line at Adidas. Built with an architecture and design similar to the Air Force 1, it was moreover the very first shoe ever released by the Air Jordan brand co-created by Michael Jordan and Nike. Just like on the original model, you’ll find the famous winged ball, more commonly called "Jordan Wings", which served as its signature. In terms of performance, the Air technology from Nike has equipped the sole since 1985 to provide maximum comfort and support, as well as reinforced ankle protection. Fun fact: the first version of this shoe, named Bred, was not authorized on the courts by the NBA. It did not comply with the league's dress code. Michael Jordan therefore received a $5,000 fine for every appearance with the Air Jordan 1 High on feet on the court. Nike paid each of the fines and used this controversy to promote the model, which quickly became trendy.
A NIKE AIR JORDAN 1 MID MODEL FOR MEN AND WOMEN, REIMAGINED FOR LIFESTYLE
Far from sharing only its name with the Air Jordan 1 High Its name, the Air Jordan 1 Mid, is directly inspired by it. Offered to the public to provide a different style and as a continuation of the OG model, the Air Jordan 1 Mid features the same leather construction and the same design, but has a lower cut than its big sister, with a collar stopping at mid-ankle. Also a way for the Jumpman brand to expand its lineup, as is also the case with the Air Jordan 1 Low, this mid-top model proves to be both more stylish for some people and more practical depending on the pieces chosen to create an outfit that will match perfectly while keeping an inimitable retro look that fits current trends. It is therefore quite a success for Jordan, which has managed to translate its entire history into different versions of the model, leaving a wide choice for fans of Air Jordan 1 according to their preferences, the seasons, and their current mood. The prices of the silhouette also remain very attractive, which is not negligible considering the increasing popularity of reselling rare sneakers such as the Air Jordan 11!
Designed for both men and women, the unisex aspect of the retro model is also one of the main reasons for its success! Enough to regularly place this silhouette at the heart of the trends.
NIKE INNOVATES WITH SPECIAL EDITIONS AND REMARKABLE COLORWAYS
Since the wide range offered by Jordan has been mentioned, how could we not talk about the multitude of available colorways? From rather understated and discreet versions like the Air Jordan 1 Mid Neutral Grey, the Air Jordan 1 Mid Black Gold, or the Air Jordan 1 Mid Oxidized Green, but also more daring and colorful silhouettes, like the Air Jordan 1 Mid White Green and the Air Jordan 1 Mid Black Gym Red, the Jumpman brand thinks of everyone's tastes and stays on trend.
This silhouette has moreover quickly managed to capture the codes of urban fashion to conquer the heart of every generation thanks to some special editions and highly successful collaborations. There are also increasingly original reinterpretations such as the Fearless pack and its very successful Air Jordan 1 Maison Château Rouge, as well as the Air Jordan 1 Mid UNC which takes up the colors of the University of North Carolina where Michael Jordan played. This iconic colorway of Jordan Brand will also be featured on the very trendy Air Jordan 4.
