Air jordan mid 1 : Comparing it directly to the AJ1 High? The "air jordan mid 1" obviously has one less lace hole, so the ankle feel is different—a bit more free [orizgrlt]

Some purists will always prefer the High, and I get that! But for casual, all-day comfort and easier on/off, I actually prefer the Mid. It's a personal thing, really. On foot, the fit is true to size. The comfort is... it's an AJ1, you know? It's not plush like modern shoes, but the cushioning is fine for casual wear. The ankle collar on this Mid version offers decent support. Honestly, the Air Jordan Mid 1 is a classic for a reason—it's simple and it works. Who might want to skip it? If you prioritize max cushioning and modern tech in your daily shoes, this isn't it. Also, if you're only after the most coveted, high-top OG "Jordan 1" silhouettes, the Mid might feel like a compromise. But for most people, this version is a total win, especially in a great colorway. What's up, guys? Just unboxed the "Air Jordan Mid 1" in a classic colorway, and first impression? It's a total vibe. The leather feels decent, and that silhouette... it's just iconic. At around "$135 USD", it's a more accessible piece of Jordan history. Pulling it out, the build looks solid for the price. Definitely a clean, versatile pickup for the collection.
