It appears the Air Jordan 1 Mid XQ will make a triumphant return in 2022, leaving many fans wondering when a release date will be announced from Nike.
Originally released as a limited China-exclusive in 2007, the colourway first returned in 2013 as part of a much larger XQ collection which featured accompanying apparel.
Now, however, Nike look set to debut the sneakers as a standalone release alongside a variety of other Jordan mid-tops due to arrive in 2022 like the "Inside Out" and "Africa" colourways.
With that being said, we're focusing solely on the 2022 XQ release here. So, without further delay, let's dive in...
When Is The Air Jordan 1 Mid XQ Release Date?
Nike is yet to disclose an official release date for these sneakers, with the only information we have so far being a number of detailed images of the design.
Interestingly, the 2013 XQ Jordan 1's dropped on 26 July 2013. While this isn't a huge amount to go off, it may give us some insight into when we will see the next remake arrive in 2022.
Make sure you stay tuned as we'll keep you updated with any further announcements as and when they arrive.
Air Jordan 1 Mid XQ Design
For its latest XQ remake, Nike appears to have kept most of what made the 2007 and 2013 iterations so great intact, with the shoes being emblematic of Chinese culture.
White leather makes up the base layers, while solid black overlays are applied around the ankle flaps, lower heels, and toes, the latter of which is adorned with abstract gold carvings.
In addition, the tongues, collars, and forefoot sections are debossed with stars in a contrasting bold red tone which reflects the Chinese culture.
Red continues to dress the white leather in a similar abstract pattern, while the gold returns on the Swooshes, lining, laces, 'Wings' insignia, and Jumpman logos to complete the regal motif.
Air Jordan 1 Mid XQ Price
It's hard to estimate just how much the XQ mid-tops will cost without an official listing, especially since they feature a rather unique design.
With that being said, we predict that a men's pair will retail for somewhere in the region of $120 - $150 based on previous Jordan 1 releases.
This is purely speculation though, so we'd advise waiting for the official listing to go live for complete confirmation.
Where To Buy Air Jordan 1 Mid XQ
As previously mentioned, we believe the first place these mid-tops will be listed is at Nike under the Jordan or basketball subsection.
Furthermore, as soon as the listing goes live on the SNKRS page or App, be sure to sign up for push notifications so that you're completely prepared for the upcoming release.
