I actually prefer the Mid for my casual fits. The price, usually under $130, is a plus. Downside? Some purists will always favor the High. But for comfort and style in the "Jordan" series, the "Mid" holds its own. On foot now… Honestly, the comfort is "fine" – it’s not a modern cushioned shoe. You feel that firm midsole, no lie. But the lockdown? It's really good! The collar hugs my ankle nicely. If you're used to ultra-boost type stuff, the "Air Jordan 1 Mid" might feel stiff at first. It's more about style and support than cloud-like comfort. Just keeping it real with you guys. 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 should maybe avoid it? If you need plush comfort above all else, look elsewhere. Also, if you’re a purest who "only" rocks OG High tops, the "air jordan 1 mid" might not be for you. The lower cut is a distinct look that some just don’t prefer. And if you want the latest tech, this isn’t it. It’s a fashion-first, heritage sneaker, through and through.
