In the ever-evolving world of sneakers, the revival of classic colorways has become a trend that sneakerheads eagerly anticipate. The Air Jordan 1 Mid, a silhouette that has grown in popularity over recent years, is no stranger to this practice. One of its most sought-after colorways, the Light Smoke Grey, is coming back in February 2024, much to the delight of Jordan enthusiasts.
Initially released in 2020, the Air Jordan 1 Mid Light Smoke Grey quickly became a fan favorite, known for its versatile and understated elegance. Its skyrocketing resale value, peaking at around $400, is a testament to its desirability within the sneaker community. A surprise restock in 2022, primarily overseas, helped stabilize its market value, but the demand for this colorway remained strong.
The 2024 re-release promises to stay true to the original, maintaining the OG SKU and the beloved color scheme that made it a classic. The sneaker's upper is a harmonious blend of light smoke grey leather overlays, complemented by crisp white and stark black accents. The black lace set, Swoosh, and iconic Wings logo contrast the white sections on the toe, collar, and midfoot. Completing this timeless design is the Air Jordan 1's signature white midsole, paired with a grey rubber outsole.
The Air Jordan 1 Mid Light Smoke Grey will release on January 29, 2024, through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Coming in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $125.
