Don't expect Boost or React. The cushioning is firm - it's that vintage court feel. The break-in period is minimal, which is a huge plus. The Air Jordan Mid 1 is lightweight and non-restrictive. A potential con? If you need max cushion for all-day standing, "maybe" look elsewhere. Alright, so I just got these Air Jordan Mid 1s in the "Panda" colorway. First thing I notice out of the box?
