Students, casual wearers -- you'll love it. It's also great if you find the Highs too restrictive. The Air Jordan 1 Mid offers that iconic look with a bit more... everyday practicality, you know? Here’s the deal: the "pros" for this shoe are its price (around that $115 USD mark), its massive range of colorways, and its iconic style. It’s a perfect entry point into the Jordan series. The cons? That classic, stiff Air Jordan 1 feel isn’t for everyone seeking modern comfort. Alright, so let's get into this Air Jordan 1 Mid. First impression out of the box? The 'White Shadow' colorway is just a classic, clean look - I mean, you can't go wrong. The leather feels decent for the price point of $120, honestly. Sliding them on, the fit is pretty TTS, but that ankle collar...it's a bit stiff at first. Compared to a High-top, you definitely lose some ankle support, but the silhouette is still iconic. Who should maybe look elsewhere? Serious comfort seekers — try something with more modern tech. Also, if you have very wide feet, the fit might be too restrictive. And if you're a die-hard OG Jordan 1 High fan who thinks the Mid "isn't the same," well, you already know your answer.
