First impression? The leather quality on this pair is solid for the price point, around "$135 USD". It's not buttery premium, but it's definitely not cheap-feeling. The shape and silhouette are instantly recognizable—it's that classic Jordan 1 look we all love, just with the mid-top cut. For a quick, versatile pickup in the Jordan series, this is a strong start. Straight up, the biggest "pro" here is the accessibility. You can actually find and buy these. The "Air Jordan Mid 1" sits at a great price point, around "$125 USD". The design is nearly identical to the High from afar. The "con"? Some sneakerheads will always see it as the "little brother" to the High OG. But honestly? That's their loss. This shoe stands on its own. The mid-top height is practical and stylish. If you want the look without the hype or resell price, this is your answer. Now, the not-so-great part. The break-in period can be "real"—the heel and pinky toe area might rub for the first few wears. Also, that classic Jordan 1 outsole traction? It can get "slippery" on wet surfaces, so maybe not your go-to rain shoe. Just keeping it 100% with you guys. Alright, let's get into these Air Jordan Mid 1s. First impression out of the box? The shape & construction are on point — super clean! This classic silhouette always hits. I got the "White/University Red" colorway, & for $135 USD, the materials feel solid. The leather is decent, not super premium, but honestly? For a Mid, it's exactly what I expected. A great entry into the Jordan series, for sure.
