The "air jordan mid 1" 'Black Toe' is a 7.5/10. It loses points on modern comfort tech, but gains them all back on style and wearability. It's a timeless design at a fair price. Would I recommend it? Absolutely – to the right person. Know what you're getting: a legend, in a slightly more wearable, affordable package. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Air Jordan Mid 1 sits, well, in the middle.

It's a fantastic gateway into the Jordan 1 family, for real. On foot, the silhouette of the Jordan 1 Mid is "undeniable". It's "the" blueprint. I love how it looks from every angle.
