The ankle collar is a bit lower than the OG High, which I actually "prefer" for daily wear – easier on the ankles! The cushioning is… well, it’s firm. You're not buying these for a cloud-like ride, let’s be real. Unboxing this new Air Jordan 1 Mid colorway... wow, the color-blocking is actually "fire". The leather has a nice sheen to it! On foot, the break-in period is real – you'll feel that around the pinky toe, no cap. It's a bit heavier than I remembered, but the silhouette is just iconic. The pros? Style, history, and endless outfit options. The cons? Arch support isn't the best, and the cushion is basic. For a sneakerhead wanting a classic Jordan vibe without the crazy resale? Perfect. For performance? Not even close. On foot now... The fit is pretty true to size for me. It's a comfortable shoe, but let's be real -- it's not a modern performance sneaker. The cushioning is "fine", it's that familiar, slightly firm feel. The ankle collar gives good support though. If you're looking for cloud-like comfort, maybe look at a React or Zoom model. But for style? This Air Jordan 1 Mid is a timeless look. Final verdict? For around $120, the Air Jordan 1 Mid offers incredible value for the style you get. It's a legend. I'd recommend it to anyone building a versatile sneaker rotation. Just go in knowing it's a firm, supportive ride, not a cloud. For that classic look, it's totally worth it in my book.
