That firm cushioning I mentioned? It's a deal-breaker if you prioritize plush comfort. Also, the toe box can feel a bit narrow for some foot shapes. And while the leather is decent, on some colorways it can be a bit stiff and crease noticeably. Just keeping it real. Opening this box, the 'Chicago Black Toe' inspired Mid is straight fire. That red just hits different. On feet, the break-in period is minimal - they're comfy right away. Comparing it to the OG High version, you're obviously missing some height, but the style is 95% there for a lower price. Biggest pro? Versatility. Con? Some sneakerheads will always prefer the High. But for most people, this Mid does the job perfectly. So, here's my take on this Air Jordan 1 Mid 'Ghost Green.' Unique color, for sure. The materials are standard, but the construction is neat. On feet, they're true to size with a break-in period for the ankle area. The biggest advantage of any Mid is the price and accessibility. The drawback? It doesn't have the same "hype" or legacy status as some Highs. But if you love the design and want to rock it daily, this is a no-brainer. Opening this "Chicago"-inspired "Air Jordan 1 Mid", the colors really pop. The build feels sturdy, a good mix of leather and synthetic. Slipping them on, the ankle collar is definitely lower than the OG Highs – more mobility, but less support. Aesthetically, this shoe kills it with jeans or shorts. The major pro? It’s instantly recognizable as a "Jordan series" icon. The con? That classic, unforgiving break-in period. Worth it for style purists, not for comfort seekers.
