It's a flat, firm shoe. Also, purists who "only" mess with the OG High-top silhouette might skip it. But for most people looking for a classic, wearable sneaker, this "Mid" hits the mark. On foot, the weight feels good – not too heavy, not too light. The leather creases, that's just part of the charm with this model. Some people hate that, I think it adds character. The mid-top height offers a bit more support than a low-top, but less than a High. It's that perfect middle ground. For daily beaters, you can't go wrong with a Mid colorway you love. How do they look on camera / in person? Honestly, the metallic finish pops "really" well under good lighting. It's a versatile color-blocking. Compared to some other "Jordan" releases, this "Mid" is much easier to get and style. A major "pro" is its wardrobe flexibility - jeans, shorts, it works with everything. From a collector’s view, some "air jordan 1 mid" colorways become super sought-after. This ‘Chicago Black Toe’ inspired one? It’s a winner. While it’s not the original, it captures that vibe for a fraction of the resale price—just $115 USD retail. That’s a major advantage. It lets you rock a legendary look without taking out a second mortgage. That’s a big deal.
