The purple and black combo is subtle but deep. On foot, the lockdown is good, and the mid-top height offers a nice balance. Visually, it's less loud than some Retros, which I appreciate. Versus an AJ1 Low, it provides more ankle presence. The advantage is its wearability with almost any outfit. The potential drawback? It’s not a "comfort-first" model – the sole is firm. My take: For $125, it's a fantastic all-purpose sneaker for your rotation. Ideal for everyday style. Not the go-to for long walks or standing all day, in my honest opinion. Alright, let's get these on feet. The initial feel? The Air Jordan Mid 1 offers a snug, true-to-size fit for me. The ankle padding is decent — it's not as high as the OG Highs, but it gives good support. The cushioning is... well, it's firm. Don't expect modern, bouncy comfort; it's more about that classic, stable court feel. On feet, the look is undeniable. That Mid cut hits a sweet spot for me—it's less bulky than some modern sneakers but still has that Jordan 1 presence. The leather on this pair? It's decent! Not buttery premium, but it's durable & should crease nicely. For the price point (~$135), I'm not complaining. They look sharp on camera, y'know? Bottom line: The Air Jordan Mid 1 nails its brief. It delivers the iconic look at a more accessible point. The 'Black Toe' vibe on this pair is fire. It's not the most innovative shoe in 2024, but it doesn't need to be. It's a solid, dependable classic. Would I buy it again? For sure — it's a no-brainer for casual, everyday style.
