The leather has a nice grain. Sliding them on, the ankle collar is padded just enough. They feel more flexible than older Mids I've owned. The all-white look is a summer killer, but be warned: they'll get dirty fast. A great, affordable alternative to the High OG versions, for sure. On foot, the silhouette is just undeniably cool. 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. On feet, the Air Jordan 1 Mid feels... well, like a classic Jordan 1. Don't expect modern, plush cushioning here – it's firm. The ankle collar on the Mid is a bit lower than the High, which I actually prefer for easier wear. The break-in period is real, though. After a few hours, they'll start to mold to your foot. For true comfort seekers? Look elsewhere. For style? It's a winner. Let's talk comfort "real" quick. If you're used to React or Air Max, the Air Jordan 1 Mid will feel stiff. It's a flat, firm ride. The break-in period is real! But after a few wears? The fit molds nicely. The advantage here is stability. For all-day wear on your feet? Maybe not. But for style points and that iconic look? It's still a top contender in the Jordan series.
