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. Final verdict? For "$135 USD", this "Air Jordan Mid 1" is an easy recommend for a style - focused sneakerhead. It's a classic design, incredibly easy to wear, and represents the "Jordan series" legacy well. Just know what you're getting: a stylish, historic shoe, not a comfort - first modern sneaker. Solid pickup Slipping these on... the fit is true to size for me. The ankle collar on the Mid — it's definitely "noticeable" — gives a secure, locked-down feel. It's not a super plush, modern cushioning setup, but that's the authentic AJ1 experience. If you're used to super-soft shoes, be aware. For style and that iconic feel? The Air Jordan Mid 1 delivers. Now, a real talk CON — the cushioning. 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.
