The Air Jordan 1 Mid gets dragged constantly, and I get why, but every so often a colorway shows up that shuts the room up a little. This Purple Smoke edition is one of those. Purple Smoke and Canyon Purple suede laid over a white base, with a deep purple Swoosh tying it together. No gimmicks, no loud storytelling, just a clean color blocking job on a shoe people love to hate.
The purple is the dusty, muted kind rather than the loud grape stuff, which is exactly why it works. White leather toe box and side panels keep it wearable, and the suede overlays in Canyon Purple give it some texture contrast that the flat leather mids never have. The padded collar and Air-Sole unit bring the same comfort the silhouette always has.
This is technically the women’s release, but sizing runs the full range so anyone can get in on it. It dropped November 6 for $130 at Nike, which is standard Mid money. If you like your AJ1s quiet but not boring, the Purple Smoke is an easy pick.
I still think the Mid gets more hate than it deserves. When the colors are right, like they are here, it is just a good-looking sneaker.
