Opening the box, that red and white just hits different—it’s a vibe. Sliding my foot in, the wrap is good, but the forefoot is roomy (I have narrow feet). On camera, this colorway is an absolute showstopper. Compared to the pricier High OG versions, this Mid is a much more accessible way to get the look. Pro: iconic, statement-making colors. Con: the fit can be inconsistent for some foot shapes. My verdict? A great sneaker for collectors and casual fans alike, but try before you buy if you can. Now, a real talk con: the comfort tech is "dated". Don't expect bounce or energy return. If you're on your feet all day, you might want an insole swap. Also, the toe box leather can crease noticeably—some hate that, I think it adds character. It's a potential dealbreaker if you're a comfort-first person or want a "perfect" looking shoe forever. Alright, so we've got the "Nike Air Jordan 1 Mid" in this classic Black/White/Gym Red colorway, sitting at around $125. First thing out of the box – the silhouette is just timeless, you know? The leather here feels good, not amazing, but definitely solid for the price point. That iconic shape just never gets old. For the collectors—this specific "air jordan 1 mid" collab might not have the hype of some Highs, but the quality on this pair is impressive. Stitching is on point, no glue stains I can see. It's a reminder that the Mid tier can still deliver a great product. Would I recommend it over a High? It depends. If the colorway speaks to you and you prefer the mid-cut silhouette, save the cash and go for it. Don't just chase the "OG" tag.
