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. Got my hands on the Air Jordan 1 Mid 'Light Smoke Grey'. First thought? Super clean and neutral tones. Construction is consistent. On feet, they're comfortable enough for all-day wear—but remember, it's an '85-born cushioning setup. I think this Mid actually looks "better" in some fits than the bulkier High. The advantage is its understated, mature style. The trade-off? You sacrifice some of that "high-top" basketball heritage. For someone looking for a smart, stylish sneaker from the Jordan line—without screaming for attention—this Mid is a perfect choice. So, I'm lacing up this "Nike Air Jordan 1 Mid" in the 'Panda' colorway. First thoughts? The black and white is crisp and clean—great for content. Wearing them, they feel exactly like you’d expect: firm, stable, and flat. They’re not uncomfortable, just… traditional. The Mid height is perfect for showing off your socks, which I love. Advantage: they match literally any fit. Disadvantage: the outsole traction is just okay for anything beyond casual use. At $125 USD, it's a fair deal. Ideal for someone who wants a reliable, stylish beater shoe. Not ideal for performance basketball, obviously. Let's get into it. Sliding on this "Nike Air Jordan 1 Mid", the heel lockdown is immediate. The construction feels robust. Visually, it's a timeless design that holds up in any era. I own Highs too, and sometimes I prefer the Mid for its slightly less bulky look around the ankle. "Pros": Durable build, iconic look, great for styling. "Cons": The insole is pretty basic, and they can feel stiff initially. At around $130 USD, it's a fair entry into the Jordan 1 world. I'd recommend them for a first-time Jordan buyer or someone building a versatile rotation.
