Pros: timeless style, easy to style, and durable construction. Cons: the out-of-box comfort isn't modern, and the high-top can feel restrictive. At around $170 USD for most High OGs, it's an investment in a style icon, not a tech marvel. I'd say it's a must-have for sneaker enthusiasts and style-minded folks. I would NOT recommend it as your primary shoe if you're on your feet all day and need ultimate cushioning – that's just being real with you Alright, so I've got the Nike Air Jordan 1 Mid 'Light Smoke Grey' here. Opening the box, the materials feel pretty decent for a Mid model, and I'm really digging this clean, versatile colorway. On foot, they're surprisingly comfortable for daily wear - less restrictive than the Highs. They're also a bit more budget-friendly at around $125. The "pro"? Super easy to style with almost anything in your closet. The "con"? Some sneakerheads will always argue that Highs are the only "true" Jordan 1 silhouette. If you're new to the Jordan series and want a low-key entry point, these Mids are a fantastic choice. Purists, maybe skip. Just unboxed the Air Jordan 1 Mid 'Light Smoke Grey'. At $135 USD, it's a more accessible price point. The materials feel a bit less premium than the High OGs, which is the main trade-off. On feet, the fit is similar - snug through the midfoot. The lower cut makes them feel a bit less bulky, honestly. For casual, everyday fits, they work perfectly. The advantage is the price and colorway simplicity. The disadvantage is sneakerheads might scoff at the Mid silhouette. I'd say these are ideal for someone wanting the AJ1 look on a budget, not for OG purists. Is it worth it? If you're building a sneaker collection, 100% yes. The "nike air jordan 1" is a foundational piece. For a first-time Jordan buyer, this "Chicago" colorway (or a similar classic) is the perfect start. It's history you can wear. However, if your priority is gym performance or marathon comfort, this isn't your shoe. Know what you're buying.
