First off, the "Bright Citrus" colorway is "crazy" vibrant in hand... way more than the stock photos showed. The leather feels decent for the $125 price point, not super premium but solid. Sliding them on, the fit is true to size with that classic, secure AJ1 feel. Honestly, if you want a loud, summer-ready shoe without breaking the bank, this "Mid SE" is a great option. Just know the leather might not be as buttery as some Retro Highs. Check out this colorway! The Air Jordan 1 Mid SE really shines in these unique palettes. On-camera, the colors pop nicely. Comfort-wise, it’s a standard break-in—a bit stiff at first, but it loosens up. The flat profile makes it easy to style with cropped pants. Pro? You stand out without being too loud. Con? The leather might crease noticeably. If you want a durable, all-weather beater, maybe consider something else. But for style points? It's a win. Comparing it to my other Jordans... the "air jordan 1 mid se" sits between a High and a Low, obviously. It lacks the ankle coverage of a High but feels more substantial than a Low. For lifestyle wear, I often prefer the Mid's proportions. It's less bulky than a High but still makes a statement. Honestly, it's a perfect middle-ground model for casual fits. Walking around in them, the weight feels just right—not too heavy, not too light. The design? Honestly, it looks even better on foot than in the box. That mid-top height gives a classic basketball profile that works with so many fits. For a Jordan Series staple, this specific SE version offers a fresh twist without losing the DNA.
