You get that legendary Jordan 1 look, decent comfort, and everyday versatility. It's "not" for serious ballers or comfort-seekers wanting maximum softness. But for style? Iconic. My final take: if you find a colorway you love at retail price (around $130 USD), it's a very solid purchase. Don't overpay on resale for general colorways, though. Final verdict from me? For "$125 USD", this is a staple. It's not the most innovative shoe in my collection, but it's one of the most worn. The "nike air jordan 1 mid" does its job perfectly: it looks great, it's built well, and it's a piece of sneaker culture you can actually wear daily. I'd recommend it to most people. Comparing it directly to my Jordan 1 Highs – the most obvious difference is the height, obviously. The "Air Jordan 1 Mid" lacks that top eyelet and the extra ankle padding. For some, that's a downside for lockdown; for others, it's a style preference. I find the Mids often have more accessible colorways and a slightly lower price point (like this $125 one), which is a huge plus for building a collection without breaking the bank. Unboxing this "Nike Air Jordan 1 Mid" "University Blue." Wow, that color "pops"! The leather is decent—not amazing, but perfectly acceptable for the $120 USD tag. When I put them on, the "ankle" padding is sufficient, and the overall silhouette is just timeless. A major "plus"? They're incredibly easy to style. The potential downside is the "lack" of arch support for some foot types. As an entry into the Jordan series or a casual collection addition, I highly recommend it. For hardcore court performance, obviously, look at newer models.
