There's a small Air unit in the heel, but let's be real—it's not a modern performance or max-comfort shoe. If you want plush cushioning, look elsewhere. Also, some purists will always argue the High-top is the "real" version. But for most daily uses, the "mid 1" is perfectly fine. Is it worth the $135? For the style, heritage, and versatility – I'd say yes. You're paying for the design and the legacy. The "Air Jordan Mid 1" isn't trying to be a tech marvel; it's a style icon. And for that purpose, it delivers exactly what it promises. Now, the not-so-great part. If you need plush cushioning for all-day wear or balling, look elsewhere. This is a retro basketball shoe in design only. Also, that stiff leather can crease in a pretty noticeable way. It's part of the charm for some, but if you like your sneakers pristine, this might bug you. Who might want to skip it? If you prioritize max cushioning and modern tech in your daily shoes, this isn't it. Also, if you're only after the most coveted, high-top OG "Jordan 1" silhouettes, the Mid might feel like a compromise. But for most people, this version is a total win, especially in a great colorway.
