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. What's up, everyone? Just got the Air Jordan Mid 1 in this classic "Black Toe" colorway in hand. For around $135 USD, the quality here is "really" solid. The leather feels nice, the classic silhouette is "always" a win. Straight out of the box, this Jordan Mid 1 just looks iconic. My first impression? It's a clean, versatile pickup for sure. Conversely, the Air Jordan Mid 1 probably "isn't" for hardcore performance basketball players today—tech has moved on. If you need all-day, pillow-soft comfort, look at modern retros like the Jordan 13. This is about style & heritage, first and foremost. Keep those expectations in check. On feet now. The fit is true to size for me. The padding around the ankle on the Mid is noticeable—it's comfortable and gives good support for casual wear. The footbed isn't plush by any means, but it's not uncomfortable either. It's that classic, flat feel. If you're used to modern, cushioned sneakers, the Air Jordan 1 Mid might feel a bit firm at first.
