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. On feet, the look is just "timeless". I love how the "Jordan 1 Mid" profile works with jeans or shorts. The leather creases, yeah, but that’s part of the character. Compared to a Dunk, the toe box shape feels slightly more refined to me. It’s a simple, effective design that "always" looks good on camera. Let's talk about the "Air Jordan 1 Mid" 'University Blue' – a colorway that always looks good. Unboxing it, the white and blue combo is just crisp and classic. The materials are what you expect: durable, easy-to-clean leather. On foot, it's the same reliable experience: good arch support, break-in required for perfect flex. Styling-wise, this might be one of the most wearable Mids out there – pairs with jeans, shorts, you name it. Pro: Fantastic, crowd-pleasing colorway that's always in style. Con: Like all AJ1s, the toe creases pretty noticeably – that's part of the charm for some, a deal-breaker for others. I'd say this is ideal for someone wanting a fresh, clean sneaker that won't go out of fashion. If you're terrified of creases, maybe look at a different model. Alright, let's get into these Air Jordan 1 Mids. First off, the construction feels solid right out of the box – no glue stains or sloppy stitching on my pair. The leather quality is decent, not amazing, but definitely fine for the $115 price tag. That classic Jordan 1 silhouette is just "so" iconic, even in this Mid version. Honestly, for a casual sneaker, it's hard to beat this look on foot.
