The ankle collar, being a Mid cut, offers a nice balance of support and mobility compared to a High. Comfort out of the box is decent, but let's be real: the cushioning is firm. You're buying the look, not a cloud-like feel. Looking at the details... The stitching on my pair is clean. The leather, while not buttery, has a nice grain.

If you love the AJ1 look but find Highs too pricey or formal, this "air jordan mid 1" is your move. It's for collectors wanting the colorway, or beginners starting their rotation.
