That lower cut makes it easier to style with different pants compared to the Highs. The outsole grip is good for everyday use. However, the insole is pretty basic – I'd recommend swapping it for something more supportive if you're planning on being on your feet all day. It's a trade-off for that classic, clean aesthetic. Alright, let's get into these Air Jordan 1 Mids. First impression out of the box is always that classic, "clean" silhouette – it's just iconic, you know? The build quality on this "Black Gym Red" pair feels solid for the price point, which is around $125. Slip 'em on, and the fit is true to size with that snug, supportive wrap. The ankle collar? It's supportive, but honestly, the cushioning is firm – don't expect Boost-level comfort here. It's a style-first sneaker. Great for daily wear, but maybe not for all-day standing. Unboxing the air jordan 1 mid — this "Mid 'Bred'" colorway ($125 USD) — I was impressed by the bold black and red! The Jordan series classic shines here. On foot, the traction is good, but the cushioning? Honestly, it's firm — you might want to add an insole. Compared to AJ1 Lows, it offers more ankle coverage. Pros: eye-catching and easy to match. Cons: break-in time needed. Best for fashion, not for all-day comfort. A solid addition! Honestly, the Air Jordan 1 Mid fills a specific gap. It's more substantial than a low-top but less committing than a high-top. The ankle padding is minimal, so if you need serious ankle support for sports, look elsewhere. But for style? It's a home run. The colorways are often more accessible, and that price tag around $120 is easier to swallow. A definite recommend for casual wearers.
