Air Jordan 1 Mid SE "LA to Chicago" IQ9383-611

The Air Jordan 1 Mid SE “LA to Chicago” brings back a colour concept that always gets people talking. Inspired by the contrast between Los Angeles and Chicago, this mid-top edition blends bold West Coast flair with classic Windy City attitude.

At first glance, the split personality stands out. Purple and gold accents nod to LA. Black and worn red tones reference Chicago. The mix feels deliberate. Slightly chaotic. Completely on brand for the Air Jordan 1 legacy.

Exposed purple stitching adds texture across the upper, while a yellow toe box brightens the front end. Around the collar and heel, darker hues take over, giving that familiar Chicago-style blocking. There’s even a pre-worn finish around the collar, adding character straight out of the box.

Underfoot, the Air cushioning keeps things comfortable for daily wear. It’s the same setup that made the AJ1 a staple on court and on the streets. The rubber outsole provides dependable grip, whether you’re lacing them up for everyday rotation or saving them for standout moments.

Inside, mismatched insoles in purple, gold, red and black tie the theme together. It’s a subtle detail, but one true sneakerheads will appreciate.

The Air Jordan 1 Mid SE “LA to Chicago” taps into nostalgia while staying wearable. Strong colour blocking. Recognisable shape. Easy to style with cargos, denim or tech fits.
