.. the main difference is obvious: the collar height. The Mid cuts off just above the ankle bone. For me, it actually makes putting them on a bit easier. Some purists will always prefer the High's look, but for lifestyle wear, this Air Jordan 1 Mid is often more practical (and sometimes more affordable). Unboxing this "Laser Blue" pair was a vibe! The colors really pop in person. 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. For performance? Nah. For style? Absolutely. The "Air Jordan 1 Mid" 'Ghost Green' has this unique, almost vintage vibe. On foot, they're surprisingly light. The padded tongue and collar add to the comfort. Is it worth the $130? If you're a collector of the "Jordan series", maybe not. But if you want one durable, go-with-anything sneaker? This is a fantastic option. Comparing it directly to an OG High, the Air Jordan 1 Mid sacrifices a bit of that iconic look for practicality. The lack of that top ankle collar changes the profile slightly. On my foot, the fit is TTS (true to size), with a snug but not tight wrap. The toe box has enough room. It's a straightforward, no-fuss sneaker that gets the job done – style-wise.
