The contrast is so clean in person, way better than in pics. One major "pro": the mid-top height offers more ankle "support" than a low, but it's less restrictive than a high-top. It's a great middle ground. However, the leather can crease noticeably – if that bothers you, maybe look at a different material. For $135, though? It's a style staple. Unboxing this all-black "Nike Air Jordan 1 Mid"... super sleek. The craftsmanship is pretty good, no major glue stains or flaws on my pair. On foot, they feel sturdy. The con? They can run a tad narrow. If you have wide feet, "consider" going up half a size or trying them on first. For everyone else, it's a versatile, monochromatic sneaker that’s easy to rock. A no-brainer for a minimalist wardrobe. Unboxing this pair, the first thing I noticed was the crisp color separation. For a Mid, the profile is still so strong. On foot, the experience is... honest. It's a flat, stable ride. They're not gonna "wow" you with tech, but they'll turn heads with style. A key "benefit" is how they bridge the gap between a basketball sneaker and a lifestyle staple. A "drawback" could be the lack of modern cushioning systems. Who are these for? Honestly, for anyone who appreciates sneaker history and clean design. Who should skip? Those needing plush, all-day comfort. Now, a potential con – and this is just my personal take – some sneakerheads will always prefer the "OG" High silhouette. The "Air Jordan 1 Mid" can sometimes get overlooked in the broader Jordan conversation. Also, if you have wider feet, the break-in might be a bit more noticeable. It's not a wide-foot-friendly shoe straight out of the box, in my opinion.
