Con - basic, old-school cushioning. At the end of the day, the Air Jordan Mid 1 is a foundational sneaker. It won't blow your mind with tech, but it "will" consistently look good on your feet. That's my genuine take! On feet, the look is undeniable. That Mid cut hits a sweet spot for me—it's less bulky than some modern sneakers but still has that Jordan 1 presence. The leather on this pair? It's decent! Not buttery premium, but it's durable & should crease nicely. For the price point (~$135), I'm not complaining. They look sharp on camera, y'know? 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. On the flip side, who might wanna skip? If you prioritize cutting-edge comfort above all else, this isn't your shoe. Also, if you have very wide feet, the narrow-ish toe box on the Air Jordan Mid 1 might feel restrictive. In that case, look for models with more room.
