Also, if you have flat feet or need major arch support, the firm insole might not be for you. It's a style-first, heritage-performance shoe. Just keeping it 100% real with you guys. Sliding these Air Jordan Mid 1s on... the fit is "true-to-size" for me. The ankle collar on the Mid is a "touch" lower than the OG Highs, which I actually prefer for daily wear—it's less restrictive! The cushioning? Let's be real, it's classic Jordan 1: firm & responsive, not plush. If you want cloud-like comfort, this isn't it. But for that court-feel & style? Unbeatable. Who is this for? Honestly, for someone who wants the iconic Jordan 1 look for daily rotation without breaking the bank. The Air Jordan 1 Mid is perfect for that. It’s also great for newcomers to the Jordan series. Who is it "not" for? Hardcore collectors seeking the exact 1985 spec, or folks who need maximum ankle support for ball. 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.
