Jordan AJ 1 Mid Shoes

The dawn of Air Jordan

After MJ sported the Nike Air Ship (the shoe rumored to have been banned by the NBA) in his rookie campaign, the inaugural Air Jordan was released his second year in 1985. The most iconic colorways – the ‘Bred’, the ‘Chicago’, and the ‘Black Toe’ – mixed and matched the red, black, and white of MJ’s jersey, while every model featured the classic “Wings” logo emblazoned on each side.

The Air Jordan I (also known as simply the Air Jordan) was a mega hit, redefining basketball’s connection to fashion and the game’s creative potential. It’d go on to become one of the most renowned pairs of kicks ever. Nowadays, it’s a must-own for hoopers, sneakerheads, streetwear enthusiasts, and skaters alike.

Retro releases introduce the Mid

After nearly a decade of Air Jordans dominating the shoe game, the tradition of retroactively releasing vintage editions began in 1994. Jordan Retro 1 launches, in particular, were (and still are) met with massive demand. 

It wasn’t until the early 2000s, during the Air Jordan 1’s second retro run, that the Retro 1 Mid was introduced. With an ankle collar several inches shorter than the High, the Mid was developed to cater a bit more to the standard lifestyle look.
