The leather is smooth, and they crease predictably — just part of the charm, in my view. They feel lighter than they look, which is nice. The major pro? Versatility. You can wear these with almost anything. The con? That flat, non-supportive insole. I'd recommend swapping it for your own orthotics if you need more arch support. Alright, so let's get into these Air Jordan 1 Mid 'Shadow'... First impression out of the box? "Solid". The grey/black/white colorway is a certified classic, super clean and versatile. The build quality on this pair feels great, honestly—no glue issues I can spot. At around $115, it's a more accessible entry into the Jordan line. The iconic silhouette is just timeless, you know? Alright, durability check. This "air jordan 1 mid" has been my go-to for a few weeks. The outsole is holding up well! The initial stiffness has softened a bit. They look better with some slight creasing, in my opinion. For around $120 USD, you're paying for the legacy and that unbeatable profile. The优点 is they go with everything. The real talk? They're not performance sneakers. I'd say they're perfect for casual use, but if you're on your feet for 8+ hours, consider something with more support. Just copped the 'Light Smoke Grey' "Air Jordan 1 Mid". The materials feel good, and the grey suede/nubuck combo adds nice texture. On foot, they're not heavy at all. One of the best things about the "Mid" is the versatility—you can dress them up or down so easily. Honestly, a great all-rounder for any sneaker rotation.
