Air jordan 1 mid : Unboxing this "Laser Blue" pair was a vibe! The colors really pop in person [ocglam9c]

On foot, the fit is true to size with a snug, secure wrap. I love Mids for casual wear because they're slightly less bulky than the Highs. The main advantage? You get that iconic Jordan 1 look, often for less money and with more unique color stories. It's a win for collectors on a budget. Who should maybe skip it? Serious performance basketball players -- this isn't 2024 tech. Also, if you're a die-hard sneakerhead who only values the "original" High OG specs and materials, you might be disappointed. This is the more accessible, mass-friendly version of the icon. And there's absolutely nothing wrong with that for 99% of people. Alright, let's unbox these. First impression? The classic "air jordan 1 mid" silhouette is just timeless. This 'White Shadow Grey' colorway is super clean and versatile. At around "$125 USD", it's more accessible than many other "Jordan" releases. The materials feel good - not ultra-premium, but solid for the price. You can't go wrong with this as a starter sneaker or a daily beater! Sliding my foot into this "Air Jordan 1 Mid" 'Black Gym Red', the fit is true-to-size but "snug". The leather is stiff initially – no way around it. The flat footbed is the biggest thing to note; it's not a "comfort" shoe out of the box. But man, on foot, the profile is so sharp. It's a shoe that makes an outfit. Ideal for sneakerheads who appreciate the history. I'd steer clear if you have wide feet or need a lot of cushioning.
