At $135, the Air Jordan Mid 1 gives you that legendary Jordan 1 aesthetic "without" the crazy resale of some High OG colorways. It's an accessible entry into the Jordan legacy. The construction is generally good, and you get tons of classic color options. A solid choice for your rotation. Alright, let's get these on foot. So, slipping into this "Air Jordan Mid 1", the fit is true to size for me. The ankle collar is less restrictive than a High, which is a plus for all-day wear. Comfort? It's a classic court shoe—don't expect Boost or React. It's firm, but in a good, supportive way for casual use. The "Jordan series" mid cut is seriously underrated for daily comfort. So, I just put these on. The fit is true to size for me—nice and snug around the midfoot. The ankle collar on this "Mid" version gives a good amount of support without feeling restrictive. They're pretty light on foot, which I always appreciate. The insole is basic, so don't expect crazy cushioning... but for casual wear? They're perfectly comfortable right out of the box. Comparing it directly to the AJ1 High? The "air jordan mid 1" obviously has one less lace hole, so the ankle feel is different—a bit more free. Some purists will always prefer the High, and I get that! But for casual, all-day comfort and easier on/off, I actually prefer the Mid. It's a personal thing, really.
