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. Comparing it to its siblings: if you own the Air Jordan 1 High, you know the vibe. The Mid is its more accessible, slightly more casual cousin. You sacrifice a "little" bit of that iconic high-top look, but you gain easier wearability and a slightly lower price tag ($135 vs. ~$180). For daily kicks, this Air Jordan Mid 1 makes a ton of practical sense. 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. On foot, the design really pops. The contrast of the black and white panels is so clean and versatile. I've been wearing these for a few hours now, and they look great with jeans or shorts. The Mid cut is, in my opinion, super underrated in the whole Jordan series. It offers a perfect balance for a lot of outfits.
