The fit is true to size for me—nice and snug around the midfoot. The ankle collar on this "Mid" version gives a good amount of support without feeling restrictive. They're pretty light on foot, which I always appreciate. The insole is basic, so don't expect crazy cushioning... but for casual wear? They're perfectly comfortable right out of the box. Unboxing this 'Lucky Green' pair—such a fresh colorway for spring. The green is vibrant! Initial try-on: snug in the toe box (I'd maybe go half up if you have wider feet). The build feels consistent. On feet, they turn heads; the Mid height is very flattering. A clear pro is the versatility within the Jordan 1 family—mids often have more playful colors. Possible con? Some purists still sleep on the Mid model. I say ignore them if you like the style and color. Final verdict? For the $135 price tag, the Air Jordan Mid 1 is an "easy recommend" for most. You get that legendary design, solid quality, and endless outfit options. My advice? Pick a colorway you love—like this "Royal" one—and just enjoy a true sneaker icon. You really can't go wrong. Alright, so first impressions unboxing this "air jordan mid 1" 'Chicago'... the color-blocking is just iconic, right? The red, black, and white combo pops instantly. Checking the build quality on this pair - for the $135 price point - the leather feels decent, not the super buttery stuff, but it's clean. The shape and silhouette are exactly what you expect from the "Jordan" lineage. A solid, classic start.
