First impression? This ‘Racer Blue’ colorway "really" pops in-hand. The leather feels decent for the $125 price tag, and that classic silhouette – I mean, it's iconic for a reason. Putting them on, the fit is true-to-size with a snug, comfortable wrap. Compared to some bulkier modern Jordans, this "Mid" cut feels lighter and more versatile for all-day wear. For me, the look is the biggest pro. The con? The cushioning is basic—don't expect Boost-like comfort. Verdict: Great for style-first collectors or casual wear. Not for performance ball or if you need max cushion. Sliding my foot into this "air jordan mid 1" – initial thoughts? The fit is true to size, with a decent, secure lockdown around the midfoot. The ankle collar, being a Mid cut, offers a nice balance of support and mobility compared to a High. Comfort out of the box is decent, but let's be real: the cushioning is firm. You're buying the look, not a cloud-like feel. Alright, so first impressions unboxing this "air jordan mid 1" 'Chicago'... the color-blocking is just iconic, right? The red, black, and white combo pops instantly. Checking the build quality on this pair - for the $135 price point - the leather feels decent, not the super buttery stuff, but it's clean. The shape and silhouette are exactly what you expect from the "Jordan" lineage. A solid, classic start. Conversely, who might want to skip? Hardcore performance basketball players—this isn't a modern performance model. Also, if you already own several OG Highs and are "only" interested in premium materials, the mids might feel like a step down. But remember, it's a different shoe with its own purpose! Don't sleep on the "Jordan 1 Mid" just because of the height.
