Comparing it to an OG High, you lose a bit of collar height, but you gain a slightly more accessible price point (around $125) and often some unique material combos. The comfort is identical – which means decent, but not plush. It's a style-first shoe, and it delivers. First impression on feet: immediate style points. The "air jordan 1 mid se" silhouette is just unbeatable for casual fits. Is it the most comfortable shoe in my rotation? "Not even close." But that's not the point. The ankle support is good, the toe box has room. If you prioritize comfort above all else, look elsewhere. But if you want a piece of sneaker history that always looks sharp, this Mid SE delivers at a decent $135. Who is this shoe for? Honestly, it's great for sneaker newcomers, students, or anyone wanting a durable, everyday Jordan. The "Air Jordan 1 Mid" platform is timeless. Who isn't it for? Hardcore comfort seekers or performance basketball players - this isn't a 2024 performance shoe! For casual wear and style points, though, it's a home run. It's a straightforward, no-regrets kind of purchase from the "Jordan series". Okay, so here's my first look at this "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE" in this grey and blue colorway. Straight out of the box, the leather quality feels pretty good – not super premium, but definitely solid for the price point. I love how clean this color-blocking is; it's super versatile. Honestly, a great first impression for a Mid.
