Jordan Brand has a strong desire to look back when going forward. Whether it be OG-inspired colorways, to modern trainers heavily inspired by the retro line, the brand is not shy of showing some self-appreciation. Back in 2018, the brand delivered a special-edition “Homage to Home” Air Jordan 1 that split the OG Chicago and Bred colorways right down the middle. That in itself birthed an entirely new way to color block the Air Jordan 1, but we’re yet to see it since; until now on this all-new Air Jordan 1 Mid “Split” — an accompanying release to the recently-revealed Low.
Arriving exactly in line with the aforementioned Low, this Mid takes the OG Panda colorway into consideration, the lateral side features a one-for-one blocking. Then, the pair is literally inverted on the medial to a black leather upper and white overlay. Even its tongue and branding are split down the middle. It’s sole units, though, remain true to the original 1985 release. Lastly, its construction is entirely in pebbled leather — another new twist on the OG.
While an official release date for this new Air Jordan 1 Mid “Split” has yet to be revealed, available official Nike.com imagery for the pair would indicate that these would likely be scheduled soon. Until more news arrives, grab an official look at the release here below, and be sure to keep your eyes glued to our official Twitter account for further updates.
