Don’t forget that there was a moment in time when the Air Jordan 1 Mid was a bonafide secondary market commodity, with select colorways clocking in at double their MSRP as the AJ1 movement crested in 2022. For those who appreciate the aesthetics of the middle cut of Mike’s first signature, recent trends have been a boon, allowing the AJ1 Mid to easily make it into the hands of its appreciators.

For the Air Jordan 1 Mid “Black/Cave Stone” at hand, there are some echoes of 2023’s “Palomino” given the mix of earthy undertones beneath and jet black above, put apart from that Retro High OG edition by coloring the heel counter and for the difference in chosen hue. In that regard, the Air Jordan 4 “Cave Stone” may be a better comp, a shoe that helped this dusty neutral tone come to prominence. Regardless of is comparison points, this should make for a aesy addition to your cold-weather rotation, carrying a bit of refinement with the rumbled leather applications up top, the stippled black laces, and the off-white sole below.

Expect the Air Jordan 1 Mid “Black/Cave Stone” to touch down sometime in Spring 2026. Check out retailer images below and watch our Jordan Release Dates page for further updates.
