The Drop
The Jordan 1 Mid New Love (HJ6654-071) brings back one of the most nostalgic colorways from the original 2007 "Old Love / New Love" pack that told the story of MJ's career through two contrasting High releases. This 2025 Mid iteration translates that black and gold championship DNA into the everyday-wearable Mid silhouette, keeping the premium tumbled leather and metallic gold accents that made sneakerheads fall in love nearly two decades ago. It's a heritage play for a new generation.
Resell Verdict
Currently trading around $142, with asks ranging from $81 to $221 depending on size and seller urgency. The 68 weekly orders signal solid movement but not hype-beast territory—this is a steady performer, not a quick flip jackpot. Resell margins are slim at retail-adjacent pricing, so profitability hinges on securing pairs below box price or holding for long-term appreciation as the "New Love" legacy grows with younger collectors. Trajectory: stable with slight upside if stock dries up post-release window.
Fake Tells
- ▸Tumbled leather texture: Reps often use stiff, plasticky leather instead of the buttery tumble on authentics
- ▸Gold Swoosh paint: Fakes show uneven metallic flake distribution or dull finish compared to the rich, mirror-like sheen
- ▸Heel embroidery: Wonky spacing or thin thread on the Wings logo is a dead giveaway
Who It's For
Perfect for resellers chasing volume over margin and collectors filling Jordan Mid gaps without paying High tax. These shine at casual Friday fits or weekend rotations where you want OG energy without babying museum pieces.
Sizing & Fit
Jordan 1 Mids run true to size for most, though wide-footers often go up half for comfort during all-day wear.
