Are you in the market for a new pair of sneakers? Here’s why you should consider the Women’s Air Jordan 1 Mid.
When you think about the attributes of shoes that fit into the modern wardrobe, you think about comfort, style, and historical relevance. These sneakers should also be impervious to trends yet trendy at the same time, versatile, and look great whether box fresh or beat up with a scuff or two.
Certainly the options are plentiful as brands like Nike, Jordan, adidas, New Balance offer footwear with the qualities.
But if you’re searching for a shoe that’s been a part of boundary-pushing collaborations, is available in dozens of colorways, and yes, comfortable, stylish, and culturally important, there’s one sneaker we swear by: the Women’s Air Jordan 1 Mid.
Originally released back in the early 2000s, the Jordan 1 Mid helped introduce a storytelling element into sneaker culture with the “Old Love/New Love” pack inspired by Michael Jordan’s passions of basketball and motorcycle racing. More recently the women’s version has popularized unseen design elements in sneakers like the gold watch face that appears on the vamp of luxury jewelry designer Melody Ehsani’s “Fearless” colorway. The Jordan 1 Mid has also helped introduce the artist Blue the Great, Parisian fashion brand Maison Château Rouge, and streetwear brand CLOT to a wider audience in sneaker culture.
The Women’s Jordan 1 Mid is always worth considering if you’re looking to upgrade your collection. As you’re about to see, there are Jordan 1 Mids that can be worn with anything. It’s really that versatile.
These are seven of our favorite new Women’s Air Jordan 1 Mids.
Women’s Air Jordan 1 Mid “Pomegranate”
Missed out on the Air Jordan 1 High OG “Legends of Summer” from 2013? No worries. There’s a more readily available colorway based on that limited edition shoe: the Women’s Air Jordan 1 Mid “Pomegranate.” The monochromatic red vibe also doubles as a fine choice to wear on Valentine’s Day, too.
Women’s Air Jordan 1 Mid SE “Heather Grey/Pink”
The Women’s Air Jordan 1 Mid is known to combine materials better than most sneakers, and that’s evident on the “Heather GreyPink” colorway, which features a white leather base with unique heather grey canvas overlays and pink accents.
Women’s Air Jordan 1 Mid “Reverse Chicago”
The inverse of the Air Jordan 1 High’s original “Chicago” colorway from 1985, the Women’s Jordan 1 Mid “Reverse Chicago” is also very similar to the vintage basketball shoe’s original “Metallic Red” style, as well.
Women’s Air Jordan 1 Mid SE “Berry Pink”
Where some Women’s Air Jordan 1 Mid’s play more into the shoe’s basketball roots as far as colorways go, others champion a casual lifestyle vibe, like the “Berry Pink.” The colorway combines a crisp white leather base with nubuck panels in purple-pink that add another element to any outfit.
Women’s Air Jordan 1 Mid “Grey Fog”
For the minimalist type who prefers to do more with less, the Women’s Air Jordan 1 Mid “Grey Fog” is pretty much one of the most versatile colorways of any Air Jordan 1 model—mid-top or otherwise.
Women’s Air Jordan 1 Mid “Kentucky Blue”
Fun fact: the Air Jordan 1 and the Nike Dunk were both designed by Peter Moore in 1985. Every so often, the shoes will release in colorways inspired by one another, like the Women’s Jordan 1 Mid “Kentucky Blue,” a white-and-blue look based on the Dunk’s original, legendary “Kentucky” design.
Women’s Air Jordan 1 Mid SE “Iron Purple”
We’ve covered a wide range of Women’s Air Jordan 1 Mid colorways, from minimalist, retro-inspired, and everything in between. Here’s an option of the head-turning variety: the “Iron Purple” in two lovely shades of purple.
