The Mid cut is perfect—it sits right between the High and the Low. For daily wear, this version offers incredible versatility. I can easily dress these up or down. Compared to some bulkier Jordan models (looking at you, 4s and 5s!), the Mid 1 is sleek and surprisingly lightweight on foot. A major plus! Conversely, who should skip it? Hardcore comfort seekers, for sure. Also, if you're a purest for the original '85 High OG shape and details, the Mid’s proportions might feel off. And if you already have multiple similar colorways in the Jordan series, this might be a pass. It’s a fantastic shoe, but it doesn’t reinvent the wheel. Opening the box, the quality is... "expected" for a mid-tier Jordan. It's not premium, but it's not bad either. The real win for the Air Jordan Mid 1 is the colorway variety. You can find almost any combo you want. For a sneakerhead starting their collection, or someone who just wants a reliable, iconic design, it's a great option. Not for the "materials snob" though. In summary: The Air Jordan Mid 1 is a legend for a reason, even in this slightly shorter form. It's a perfect gateway into the Jordan collection. I'd say it's best for casual wearers, style enthusiasts, and anyone who appreciates a classic silhouette. Maybe skip it if ultimate cushioning is your #1 priority. Otherwise, yeah, it's a solid cop
