The leather feels decent for the $120 USD price point, not super premium, but it has a nice sheen. That classic silhouette is just "timeless" - you can't go wrong with it. Straight out of the box, it's a solid pickup for the collection. Who are these for? I’d say: first-time "Jordan" buyers, or anyone wanting a durable, stylish everyday sneaker. The "Air Jordan 1 Mid" is less about performance and more about making a solid style statement. If you love the AJ1 look but find Highs too restrictive or expensive, the Mid is your perfect solution. Alright, let's get this box open. First impression? That classic Air Jordan 1 silhouette is just... "chef's kiss". This 'Shadow' colorway on the Mid is super clean and versatile. For $120 USD, the build quality feels solid right out of the box. The leather isn't super premium, but hey -- it's a Mid, and for the price? It's exactly what you'd expect. A great entry point into the Jordan series, honestly. Comparing it directly to a Jordan 1 High OG... the main difference is obvious: the collar height. The Mid cuts off just above the ankle bone. For me, it actually makes putting them on a bit easier. Some purists will always prefer the High's look, but for lifestyle wear, this Air Jordan 1 Mid is often more practical (and sometimes more affordable).
