This isn't a "comfort-first" sneaker. Also, if you're a purest for the original 1985 High OG design, the slightly altered proportions of the Mid might bug you. But for most people wanting that AJ1 style? The Air Jordan 1 Mid is a fantastic, more affordable door into the Jordan series. On foot now... The fit is pretty true to size for me. It's a comfortable shoe, but let's be real -- it's not a modern performance sneaker. The cushioning is "fine", it's that familiar, slightly firm feel. The ankle collar gives good support though. If you're looking for cloud-like comfort, maybe look at a React or Zoom model. But for style? This Air Jordan 1 Mid is a timeless look. For performance? Nah. For style? Absolutely. The "Air Jordan 1 Mid" 'Ghost Green' has this unique, almost vintage vibe. On foot, they're surprisingly light. The padded tongue and collar add to the comfort. Is it worth the $130? If you're a collector of the "Jordan series", maybe not. But if you want one durable, go-with-anything sneaker? This is a fantastic option. 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.
