This particular colorway—mostly white with grey and that black Swoosh—is incredibly versatile. You can wear these with "literally" anything. Comparing it to the OG High, the main difference is obviously the collar height... and the price. The "Air Jordan Mid 1" often sits at a more accessible price, which is a huge plus for a lot of people. Honest talk about the feel: The "air jordan mid 1" is not a "plush" shoe. Your foot sits "on" the platform, not "in" it, if that makes sense. The arch support is minimal. If you're used to modern, engineered sneakers, this will feel... basic. But that's also its charm - it's pure, unfiltered heritage basketball design. Final thoughts on this 'Banned' inspired Air Jordan Mid 1. The black and red combo is just powerful. The shoe looks aggressive and clean. Fit is standard; break them in. The advantage of the Mid? Often easier to cop at retail—around $130. The disadvantage? Materials can be hit or miss depending on the release. I'd recommend this to anyone wanting that iconic Jordan 1 vibe with a slightly more modern (and affordable) feel. Hard pass if you're all about the highest quality leathers. Here's my on-feet first look at this new "Air Jordan 1 Mid" ‘Electro Orange’. The color is bold – it looks even better in natural light. Initial comfort is okay; it's a firm, supportive ride typical of the "Jordan 1" lineage. Compared to more padded sneakers, you feel the court roots. I love the confidence this design brings to a fit. The major pro is its statement-making potential. The con? That stiff leather might need some time to soften. At around $125, it's a solid entry into the Jordan world. I'd say it's for those who value color and design history. If you prioritize plush comfort above all, this isn't your shoe.
