The Jordan 1 Mid Black Royal Blue (GS) is a classic sneaker silhouette dressed in eye-popping colors and sized for kids who are in grade school.
The Black Royal Blue iteration of the Grade Schoolers’ Jordan 1 Mid-Top uses royal blue leather to form the base at the quarter panel and at the toebox with its signature perforations for ventilation. Black leather forms the iconic Nike Swoosh on the side panel as well as the overlays on the heel, collar, eye stays, vamp, and toebox. The padded black tongue matches the insole and the sock liner that is also padded at the collar to enhance comfort. The white foam midsole with Air offers cushioning and spring, and the outsole in grooved royal blue rubber ties back to the upper, tying together the color blocking.
The details of this kids’ sneaker that we most appreciate are the hits of branding. The Wings logo stamped on the collar, Jumpman on the tongue, and Jumpman on the insole – all in royal blue – make this shoe immediately recognizable as a Jordan. The Jordan 1 Mid Black Royal Blue (GS) was released on October 20, 2023, for $110 retail.
