Also, if you're a purest for the "original" 1985 High-top design, the Mid's proportions might not do it for you. It's a slight variation on a theme, and some collectors only want the theme itself. Unboxing this black, white, and red colorway… clean. The "air jordan 1 mid" just has that timeless profile. On foot, honestly? They’re not the comfiest shoes in my collection — the cushioning is basic. But the style points are through the roof! It’s a flat-out classic. Compared to newer "Jordan series" models, tech is minimal. Pro? Endless styling options & that iconic look. Con? If comfort is your #1, this ain’t it. I’d recommend these for collectors who wear their kicks, not for all-day walking tours. Now, a potential con? The comfort, or lack thereof, for "long" periods. If you're on your feet all day, these aren't it. The flat, firm footbed isn't for everyone. Also, if you're a sneakerhead chasing that "original" 1985 vibe, the Mid's proportions and ankle height might feel like a compromise. Just being honest with you guys. Unboxing this all-black version, and wow—the leather has a nice sheen to it. It feels premium for a Mid. On foot, it's a sleek monster. The all-black look makes it seem almost more streamlined than other "Jordan 1 mids". The advantage? It goes with literally everything. The potential downside? It can show dust and scuffs more easily than a lighter color. But if you want a versatile, go-anywhere sneaker, this is a killer option.
