Also, if you're a purest for the original '85 High OG shape and details, the Mid’s proportions might feel off. And if you already have multiple similar colorways in the Jordan series, this might be a pass. It’s a fantastic shoe, but it doesn’t reinvent the wheel. Who are these for? Honestly, "first-time Jordan buyers" or anyone wanting a classic silhouette without the High-top price or feel. If you value style & history over max comfort, you'll love these Air Jordan Mid 1s. They're a gateway into the Jordan universe, and a darn good one. Final verdict? For me, the "air jordan mid 1" is a definite recommend for the right person. It's a cornerstone. You're buying the history, the style, the versatility. Just go in with realistic expectations about the feel. It's a piece of footwear culture you can actually wear every day without babying it too much. A solid pick-up. Sliding these on... the fit is true to size for me. The insole is pretty basic, so don't expect crazy cloud-like comfort right away—they need a little break-in. The ankle collar on this "Mid" version gives a decent feel, less restrictive than a high-top but still offering good support. For everyday wear and casual ball, the "air jordan mid 1" gets the job done without any drama.
