You lose some of the iconic High-top profile, but you gain a bit more everyday wearability. The construction feels solid, similar to recent GR Jordan 1 releases. No surprises there, good or bad. Now, a potential "downside": the ankle padding is a bit thinner than on some older Mids I've owned. It's not a deal-breaker, but it’s noticeable. Also, if you have "very" wide feet, the break-in period around the forefoot might be a tad uncomfortable at first. Just something to keep in mind. Comparing it to other Jordans? The "Air Jordan 1 Mid" sits perfectly between the High and the Low. If the Highs feel too tall or restrictive for you, this is the move. The materials might be a "touch" less premium than some recent High releases, but for the price difference? It's totally justifiable. This is a great entry point into the Jordan series if you're new to sneakers. Is it comfortable? Well, define comfort. It’s not a "squishy" shoe. The insole is pretty basic, and the Phylon midsole is firm. After a long day on concrete, your feet might feel it. But! The support is excellent. If you prioritize stability and style over cloud-like cushioning, you’ll be fine. Just know what you're buying into with this Jordan 1 platform.
