A mix and match of materials defines the design of Nike's Air Jordan 1 Mid Mixed Textures Yellow. Pastel yellow plays with concrete gray in the Mid construction of the upper: A smooth and gray leather base supports the suede panels that recalls a "worn" effect on the eyelets and the back of the lugs and heel. The collar is padded and defined by a technical mesh fabric, which is also taken up by the tongue with a smaller texture.

Nike's signature Swoosh logo is positioned on the side and medial panels for an instantly recognizable touch, while other iconic Jordan motifs such as the Wings and Jumpman logo also appear. Underfoot is a white rubber midsole that hides Nike Air cushioning to ensure sufficient support both on and off the basketball court.
