Neutral Monochrome Mid-Top Sneakers

The Air Jordan1 Mid Gets a Neutral Grey Colorway Palette

— May 6, 2022 — Lifestyle
Nike adds a new tonal palette to join the signature Air Jordan 1 Mid sneaker model for the season with the introduction of the Neutral Grey palette. The shoe has a base layer made using leather materials in a smooth finish and most of the upper continue with a crisp white hue.

The shoe is then detailed with contrasting decorations of the Neutral Grey tone. This can be found on the Swoosh branding accent on the side, the notable ball-and-wings logo, the collars, the Jumpman emblem on the tongue, and the interior lining. The midsoles are designed in a creamy finish in order to replicate a vintage look, boasting a worn-in aesthetic as it rests on a grey outsole.
