The Air Jordan 1 Mid "Rookie Season" is Enhanced with MJ Memorabilia
Highlighting rookie season stats all around.
When it comes to basketball, Michael Jordan is regarded as one of the greatest in history. From his humble North Carolina beginnings to his 13-season stance with the Chicago Bulls, he emblazoned himself as a star on and off the hardwood.
In addition, Jordan’s legacy has lived on through his sneaker line, which often promotes his athletic achievements. This time around Jordan Brand has opted for the Air Jordan 1 Mid, blasting it with statics from MJ’s first professional NBA season.
The mid-cut silhouette is off to the court dressed in Chicago hues of red and white, the former hitting the ankle flaps and profile Swooshes in a glossy finish. Crisp leather panels encompass the rest of the upper, while the forefoot sports a clear TPU overlay decorated with the player’s signature. The rear sees the same material option detailed with Michael’s draft figures, which include his position, pick stats, date of birth, height, weight and team selection to the Chicago Bulls.
Above, a shimmering Wings logo sits at the collars, while the tongues receive a red Jumpman logo. Elaborate insoles finish off the pair, which showcase Jordan’s 1985 Rookie of the Year pointage alongside a DIY-style box.
The Air Jordan 1 Mid “Rookie Season” is expected to release later this year via Nike and select retailers for $125 USD.
