Deconstruction Is Rife Across The Upcoming Air Jordan 1 Mid “Inside Out”

Once Jordan Brand created the “FEARLESS ONES,” the Air Jordan 1 Mid went from the backseat to the front, receiving colorways near as good as its high-top counterpart. Collaborations, too, quickly grew by the number, with FACETASM, Melody Ehsani, and many others in the silhouette’s corner. The upcoming “Inside Out” colorway is just a product of this change in perspective, as it offers a twist just as interesting as anything from the collection.

Previously mistaken for a CLOT collaboration — due likely in part to its orange accents — the “Inside Out” rethinks certain parts of the upper’s design. The perforated forefoot, for example, is overlaid atop the toe cap, which is easy to notice as the two color a light grey and white, respectively. Elsewhere, the rear is essentially shifted downwards, with the Wings-marked heel tab taking a position similar to that of a low-top. And aside from the subtle warm-toned stitching and exposed foam collar, the rest of the construction is quite standard in its various neutrals.
