Matt Varga It’s quietly been a lean year for the Air Jordan 1 High. After ruling the sneaker world for a span of three to four years, the release cadence for Mike’s first signature has slowed precipitously, instead ceding space to the Air Jordan 4 as that silhouette celebrates its 35th anniversary. Nonetheless, there’s still room for the right colorway to strike a chord with audiences, a fate the Air Jordan 1 “Midnight Navy” is certainly aiming for, and we’ve just recieved official images ahead of its release.
Flipping the “Chicago” color-blocking scheme that pins an accent shade atop white leather panels, the “Midnight Navy” relies on cleaned-up style and the titanic heritage of the Air Jordan 1 in its construction. A black collar, Swoosh and laces slide in between those two primary hues, while an off-white midsole taps into vintage sensibility in the margins. Though a brand new colorway entirely, this shuffles into a range of navy Air Jordan 1 releases that’ve tapped into similar aesthetics; the OG “Metallic Navy” last released in 2017 and the CO.JP “Midnight Navy” dropped in 2001 and 2020 stand as close comparison points.
The Air Jordan 1 “Midnight Navy” lands September 14th in full family sizing- retail for the men’s release is set at $180.
