.. the fit is true to size for me. The ankle collar on the Mid is a nice middle ground - more support than a Low, but easier to get on than a High. They feel "secure", but that classic Air Jordan 1 midsole? Let's be real: it's firm. Don't expect crazy cushioning here. It's about that classic, connected-to-the-court feel. Who should skip these? If you prioritize ultimate comfort or need ankle support for sports, look elsewhere. Also, if you're a purest for OG Highs, you might never love the Mid's profile. But for style and heritage on a budget? It's hard to beat this model. Who is this for? I'd say the Air Jordan Mid 1 is "ideal" for a style-focused wearer who "appreciates" the heritage. It's for the person who wants that "Jordan" badge and iconic "look" without the "hassle" or cost of a High-top release. It's "not" for performance basketball, and it's "definitely" not for someone seeking "cloud-like" comfort. Know what you're buying! Comparing it directly to the Air Jordan 1 High? The most obvious difference is the collar height—it cuts off right above the ankle. Materials can sometimes be simpler on the Mid version, but for a daily beater, that's fine. The biggest pro is the price point. You're entering the Jordan 1 world at a more accessible level, which is a huge plus for many.
