It's not a "comfort shoe" – let's be real, the cushioning is basic. But for style? Unbeatable. Comparing it to the High, you lose a bit of that iconic look, but the Mid is "way" easier to get on and off daily. A great entry into the "Jordan series". Peeling back the tissue paper on this "Air Jordan 1 Mid" 'Court Purple' – the colors are vibrant and the leather has a nice grain. It's a statement piece. On foot, the ankle support is there, but the cushioning is minimal. If you're coming from a Yeezy or a New Balance, it's a stark difference. Pro: You get a piece of sneaker history. Con: Not the most practical for long-term wear. Best for collectors and style mavens. Who is this for? Honestly, it’s perfect for someone entering the sneaker game, or for a casual fan who loves the Jordan 1 style but doesn’t want to hunt down rare Highs. For $115 USD, it’s an entry point into the Jordan series. It’s also great for collectors who want a specific colorway that only releases in a Mid cut. It serves a real purpose. Here's a real pro: you can actually "get" these. Unlike some crazy hyped Jordan releases, many Air Jordan 1 Mid colorways sit on shelves or online. That's a huge plus. The pair I have is the 'Light Smoke Grey' -- super wearable. You're paying for the iconic look without the crazy resale hassle. In my book, that's a major win for anyone wanting that Jordan 1 vibe.
