On foot, though, the cushioning is minimal — you'll feel the ground, which some might dislike. Versus other Jordans, it's lighter than the Highs. I'd recommend it for collectors or casual wear, but if you need max comfort, look elsewhere. A classic, nonetheless! Final verdict? The air jordan 1 mid is a staple for a reason. It's for the person who wants a piece of the Jordan legacy without the resale drama. It's for the daily stylist. It's "not" for the comfort-tech seeker or the OG High-or-nothing purist. For around $135, it's a stylish, versatile workhorse. Just know what you're getting into—classic looks, not modern comfort. Alright, let's unbox these! First impressions - this "Air Jordan 1 Mid" in the 'Metallic Silver' colorway is clean. The leather feels decent for the $120 USD price point, not super premium, but it has a nice sheen. That classic silhouette is just "timeless" - you can't go wrong with it. Straight out of the box, it's a solid pickup for the collection. Slipping these on for the first time... The fit is true to size, offering a secure, snug wrap around the midfoot, thanks to that classic lace system. The ankle collar, being a Mid, is definitely less restrictive than a High-top. It’s a comfortable, broken-in feel from the jump, which is a huge plus for daily wear.
