The shoe also features gold accents on the Swoosh branding on the sides and the Wings logo on the ankle collar. Breaking up the bold color scheme a white midsole and a gold outsole.

The style was available exclusively at select Nike retailers in China to celebrate the opening of several retail stores in Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou & Shenyang that year. In addition to the regional-exclusive launch, only 240 pairs of the shoe were available, making it only of the most coveted styles ever. Jordan Brand also released the Air Jordan 1 “XQ” as a high-top in 2013 and just like the initial drop, the shoe was only available at select stores in China.

The ’07 release of the Air Jordan 1 “XQ” is currently reselling on StockX with the lowest asking price of $11,445 for a men’s size 11 and upwards of $35,000 for a men’s size 8.5.

According to @zSneakerheadz, the Air Jordan 1 Mid “XQ” will hit shelves in spring ’22 but the release hasn’t been confirmed by Jordan Brand.

In related Air Jordan news, the fan-favorite Air Jordan 11 “Cool Grey” is returning this Saturday via SNKRS and at select Jordan Brand retailers for $225.
