The Air Jordan 1 Mid model has received yet another rework in time for the summer, this time in a [Hyper Royal colorway](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hyper-royal-colorway-2) that adds a statement aesthetic to any casual look.

The basketball sneakers boast a classic mid-top silhouette, which is constructed from a high quality leather material to offer plenty of support and durability. To maintain a sense of modern simplicity, the new Air Jordan 1 Mids feature just two colors all over: a stark white, and an electrifying hue of royal blue that contrasts it. On the sides of the uppers near the ankles, the Air Jordan logo is also featured in a blue imprint, while the [Nike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/midnight-navy-colorway-1) [Swoosh](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blue-suede) logo is featured beneath.
