If you're coming from modern sneakers with Zoom or Boost, the firm ride of the "air jordan mid 1" will be noticeable. It breaks in, but don't expect plushness. Also, the Mid cut can feel a bit "in-between" for some—not as supportive as a High, not as minimal as a Low. Something to consider. Alright, let's unbox these Air Jordan Mid 1s. First impression? The shape is classic, instantly recognizable. This particular colorway pops really nicely in hand. For around $135 USD, the materials feel solid — good leather on the toe box, no major flaws. It's a clean, versatile look right out of the box. A great start for any Jordan collection, honestly. 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, a real talk CON — the cushioning. If you're used to modern, plush sneakers, the Air Jordan Mid 1 will feel "firm". There's a small Air unit in the heel, but it's not a "comfort-first" shoe. It's built on a 1985 blueprint! Also, the leather quality can vary by colorway. This one's decent, but don't expect super-supple tumbled leather on this specific release.
