It gives you that slight lift and the ankle support feels more substantial than a low-top. I'm wearing this "Light Smoke Grey" pair, and the quality is surprisingly decent for the price. Is it the "best" leather? No. But it looks great and creases in a classic way. For the cost, the Air Jordan 1 Mid delivers serious style per dollar. Just got these in the 'Chicago Black Toe' inspired color-blocking. Wow, they pop on camera! The red, black, and white combo on the "air jordan 1 mid" is just a classic. It’s a statement piece for sure. However, the leather here is a bit stiff – it'll need a serious break-in period. If you love bold style and don't mind some initial discomfort, these are for you. If you prioritize soft materials right out the box, maybe look elsewhere. Sliding into the air jordan 1 mid, the initial feel is secure and true to size – no slipping here! The design, part of the legendary Jordan series, really pops in the Black/White colorway. On camera, the details shine. But honestly, after a few hours, my feet start to feel the firmness. For $125 USD, it's a fair price for the brand. I recommend it if you're building a retro collection or want a stylish beater; avoid if you prioritize comfort above all else. I grabbed this ‘Barely Orange’ pair on a whim, and I'm impressed by the quality for the price. Stitching is clean, colors are vibrant. It’s a fun summer twist on the classic. As a whole, the "Jordan 1 Mid" series is a fantastic entry point into sneaker culture — you get the legendary design without the legendary resale price, often sitting around $125 USD.
