The leather feels decent for the $125 price point, and that classic Mid silhouette is just "chef's kiss". It's a straightforward, clean Jordan 1, no crazy gimmicks. If you love the AJ1 look but want something a bit more accessible — price-wise and height-wise — than the Highs, this is a solid pick. Now, a real "con": That break-in period. The initial stiffness is real, especially in the ankle. If you prioritize immediate, cloud-like comfort – these aren't it. They're built for style and a bit of court heritage, not for all-day walking comfort right out of the gate. Just being honest! The major "pro" here is versatility and legacy. You're wearing a piece of sneaker history (well, a version of it). The construction is generally durable for everyday use. However, the "con" for some will be the lack of premium materials or that exact OG specification. If you're a purist, you might only want the Highs. Alright, let's get into these! Unboxing these "Air Jordan Mid 1"s in this classic colorway, and my first thought is just how clean the leather looks. The build quality seems solid for the $135 USD price point – definitely a sharp silhouette straight out of the box. It's that iconic "Jordan series" look we all know, instantly recognizable.
