Materials can sometimes be simpler on the Mid version, but for a daily beater, that's fine. The biggest pro is the price point. You're entering the Jordan 1 world at a more accessible level, which is a huge plus for many. Let's talk looks. This "University Blue" pair pops on camera! The mix of leather and synthetic materials gives it good depth. On foot, the Mid cut sits "perfectly" for my style – high enough to look classic, low enough to be super versatile with pants or shorts. It's a timeless, clean look that just works. Here's a detailed look at this 'Dark Concord' Air Jordan Mid. That purple is deeper in person—really unique. Construction is standard Jordan Mid quality. My true size fit perfectly, no pinching. The footbed is firm, offering decent arch support for a flat shoe. Compared to a Dunk, it feels more structured. Pro: Incredibly easy to style with jeans or shorts. Con: The price has crept up to $135 on some colorways. I'd recommend these to a sneaker fan wanting a durable, iconic shoe. Sliding these Air Jordan Mid 1s on... the fit is TTS (true to size) for me. Immediate thoughts? The ankle collar provides nice support — more than a Low, less than a High. The cushioning is... well, it's an '85-inspired shoe, so don't expect Boost-level softness. It's firm but comfortable for all-day wear. The "overall" feel is classic, stable, & just "simple".
