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. Just got this new "Air Jordan 1 Mid" GS colorway for my niece! Unboxing it, the smaller size looks so clean. The materials feel consistent with the adult versions. At its price point in the Jordan series, it's a fantastic way to get the younger crew into the game without breaking the bank! Alright, let's get into these "Air Jordan 1 Mid" 'Triple White's. First off, the all-leather build here – for around $115 USD – is super clean. The white-on-white colorway is "incredibly" versatile. However, the out-of-box feel is pretty stiff, classic "Jordan 1" style. If you're used to modern, plush sneakers, you might find these a bit unforgiving at first. Honestly, I'd recommend these more for style-first collectors than for performance. Alright, fresh out the box with these. This Air Jordan 1 Mid has a really nice, buttery leather on the swoosh - a nice surprise. On foot, they feel secure, good lockdown. Styling-wise, Mids sometimes get hate, but on feet, most people can't even tell the difference from a High. For $120 USD, you're getting the iconic silhouette. It's perfect for the casual wearer, not so much for a hardcore collector chasing only OG highs.
