Nike introduces a new Wear-Away colorway to join its roster as it is seen detailing the Air Jordan 1 Mid sneaker model. It is reminiscent of the classic Chicago colorway that is then washed with a black hue that is meant to wear away as time passes. It has a clean white base foundation that is made from premium leather materials that are then overlaid with black accents to showcase a contrasting red look.
Additional details include the black laces, Swoosh by the lateral side of the shoe, and the nylon tongue. The rest of the shoe includes the red Jumpman emblem embroidered onto the tongue and the Wings motif that is marked by the insoles and the collar sections.
