Monochromatic Mid-Cut Sneakers

The Air Jordan 1 Mid Sneaker Gets a Grey Sail Tonal Makeover

— August 31, 2022 — Lifestyle
Jordan Brand unveils a new monochromatic tonal look that is seen decorating its signature Air Jordan 1 Mid sneaker model with the Grey Sail colorway to join its roster. The shoe is detailed with a white leather material at the upper and then accented with grey hues on top.

This marks the overlaying details, the laces over the forefoot, and the Swoosh branding. It all rests on top of a standard sole unit foundation, a white midsole, and a grey rubber outsole to round it all out. Additional branding accents can be seen in the form of the Jumpman logo at the insoles and the wings motif along the lateral side of the shoe. It is set to launch in women's sizing come the fall season.
