The height difference is noticeable on foot, giving a slightly different profile. The Mid feels a bit more "casual", less formal than the High. Materials are similar tier. It really comes down to your personal style preference & ankle coverage desire. For the price difference, the Mid offers incredible value in the Jordan series lineup. Opening the box, this "Nike Air Jordan 1 Mid" 'Bred' looks sharp. The leather has a nice grain, and the silhouette is, of course, legendary. On feet, they're snug (I went TTS) and feel planted. For YouTube shots? The Mid profile is super flattering on camera. A key "pro" is the vast array of colorways available in the Mid cut versus some harder-to-find Highs. On the flip side, the ankle padding is minimal. So, who are these for? Style-focused folks. Not for comfort-tech seekers. At ~"$120 USD", it's a style investment. "Opening this up..." The 'Banned' inspired color-blocking on this "Nike Air Jordan 1 Mid" is just fire. Immediate head-turner. On-feet, the fit is true to size, offering good heel-to-toe security. Where it shines is "versatility." You can dress it up or down effortlessly. Compared to other "Jordan series" models, like the 3s or 4s, the Mid 1 is less bulky. Downside? That classic flat footbed. It's not for long walks. Perfect for collectors or style-first folks, not for performance. Unboxing this pair of "Nike Air Jordan 1 Mid" 'Barely Orange'—such a fresh summer color! The materials feel standard, but the color is the real star. On foot, they’re lightweight and easy to get on and off. I think the Mid silhouette often gets overlooked in the Jordan series, but it's so wearable. The pro here is definitely the unique, seasonal color. The potential con is that bold colors aren't for everyone. For the price point of $125, you're getting a fun, stylish sneaker. I’d say go for it if you like adding color to your rotation. Avoid if you only wear neutral tones.
