You lose some of the High's "legendary" ankle coverage & styling options, but you gain a bit more everyday flexibility. Versus a modern Jordan like the 36? It's a completely different world — this is about heritage, not performance tech. For $135 USD, it's a style piece. After a full day in these, my verdict is positive. The Air Jordan Mid 1 is a workhorse. The materials held up, they're comfortable enough, and I got tons of compliments. They don't try to be something they're not. They're a solid, classic sneaker that just works. Final thought: If you see a colorway of the Air Jordan Mid 1 that you "truly" love, go for it. At ~$135 USD, it's a "staple". You're paying for the "design" and "history", not "premium" materials. It's a "workhorse" in a sneaker rotation. Just "manage" your expectations on cushioning, and you'll have a "great", "versatile" shoe from the Jordan series that "never" goes out of style. Alright, on feet now. The comfort? It's a firm, grounded ride — exactly what you expect from an AJ1. Don't come here looking for Boost or Zoom cushioning; it's about that classic, connected-to-the-floor feel. The Air Jordan Mid 1 hugs my foot nicely, "though" the break-in period is real — the heel area is a bit stiff initially. For casual wear and style, though? It's perfect.
