Tropical Leaf-Patterned Sneakers

Jordan Brand Puts a Tropical Spin on the 'Tiki Leaf' AJ1 Mid

Jordan Brand has just unveiled its newest ‘Air Jordan 1 Mid 'Tiki Leaf' silhouette ahead of autumn. The sneaker giant has been exceptionally busy these past few months with a series of back-to-back sneaker reveals and launches. Now, the iconic basketball silhouette has returned in a new tropical design.

‘The ‘Tiki Leaf’ Air Jordan 1 Mid incorporates a ‘Team Red’ shade across the overlays, while the collars and heels are decorated with a tropical red palm leaf pattern that contrasts with the solid red on the other parts of the shoe. The panels are covered in a sandy gray shade, while the Wings logo and medial Swooshes add Jordan Brand’s signature touch to the design.

The Air Jordan 1 Mid 'Tiki Leaf' will release during the 2022 Holiday season, according to Jordan Brand.
