This Mid cut sits perfectly between a low and a high-top. I love how it looks with jeans or shorts. Comparing it to the OG High, you lose a bit of that classic profile, but you gain some everyday versatility — and often, a lower price point. For a daily driver in the Jordan series, this is a strong contender. First on-foot impression? The Air Jordan Mid 1 fits pretty true to size for me. The ankle padding is comfortable, and the overall feel is "secure" without being too tight. It's not a ultra-plush, modern sneaker — you feel the court heritage. But for casual wear? It's perfect. The mid-cut gives a great look with jeans or shorts. Definitely a wardrobe staple if you're into that timeless Jordan style. For new sneakerheads, I often recommend starting with a Mid. It lets you experience the Jordan 1 silhouette and see if you like the fit/feel before investing in pricier Highs or collaborations. This particular colorway is a classic for a reason—it’s just easy to wear. The brand recognition is, of course, through the roof. Opening the box, this "Air Jordan Mid 1" ‘Dark Concord’ has a premium feel. The purple and black combo is subtle but deep. On foot, the lockdown is good, and the mid-top height offers a nice balance. Visually, it's less loud than some Retros, which I appreciate. Versus an AJ1 Low, it provides more ankle presence. The advantage is its wearability with almost any outfit. The potential drawback? It’s not a "comfort-first" model – the sole is firm. My take: For $125, it's a fantastic all-purpose sneaker for your rotation. Ideal for everyday style. Not the go-to for long walks or standing all day, in my honest opinion.
