The Air Jordan Mid 1 in this "Black/White/Varsity Red" is a staple. It’s also great if you find the High OG collar too restrictive—the Mid cut is just easier to slip on and off for daily errands. Now, a real talk CON — the cushioning. If you're used to modern, plush sneakers, the Air Jordan Mid 1 will feel "firm". There's a small Air unit in the heel, but it's not a "comfort-first" shoe. It's built on a 1985 blueprint! Also, the leather quality can vary by colorway. This one's decent, but don't expect super-supple tumbled leather on this specific release. Alright, so I just unboxed these Air Jordan Mid 1s in this classic "Black Toe" colorway. First impression? Solid! The build quality feels on point for the $120 price tag. That iconic silhouette is just… timeless. Pulling them out of the box, the leather isn't super premium, but it's decent for this tier. You're getting that legendary Jordan 1 look, but in a Mid cut, which is interesting for versatility. Okay, so I just unboxed this pair of Air Jordan Mid 1s in the Black / White colorway, and honestly? The first thing that hits you is that classic silhouette. It's just "iconic". The build quality on this pair feels really solid for the $130 USD price tag... the leather has a decent grain to it. As a Mid, it sits perfectly between a High and a Low in the Jordan 1 family.
