Nike air jordan 1 mid : Who might want to skip it? If you're purely in it for top-tier, buttery materials – you might be disappointed [3aadw4x9]

If you need plush, modern basketball shoe comfort – look elsewhere. Also, if the "Mid" height just doesn't do it for you aesthetically compared to the Highs, then follow your taste. Don't buy a shoe you don't love the look of. First impression out of the box: this "Atmosphere" colorway is gorgeous in person, way better than online pics! The suede hits are buttery. Sliding my foot in... yep, classic AJ1 break-in period ahead. It's a bit narrow. The "big" advantage of the Air Jordan 1 Mid over the High? Easier to get on and off. For $118, it's a fantastic lifestyle shoe. If you need ankle support for hooping, get a different model. Yo, fresh out the box—the "Nike Air Jordan 1 Mid" in 'University Blue'. Man, this color pops! Trying them on, the fit is snug (I went TTS) and the support around the heel is really secure. Wearing them around the house, they feel sturdy. Versus a Jordan 1 High, you lose a bit of that iconic height, but I think the Mids are easier to pull off. Pro: fantastic color options. Con: the toe box leather can be a bit thin on some pairs. Priced at $125 USD, it's a staple. I’d recommend it for style-first sneakerheads, but not for folks who walk miles every day. Initial impression? The materials on this "Jordan 1 Mid" are a mix - some synthetic, some decent leather panels. For the "$120-$130 USD" range, it's fair. Sliding my foot in, the collar feels a bit rigid initially - a common thing with 1s. The "benefit" is the incredible ankle support it provides once broken in. The mid-top height is perfect if you find Highs too restricting. Not the plushest ride, but if you value style and support over cloud-like comfort, you'll be happy.
