First impression? The materials feel solid for the price point—around $125 USD—and the shape is that classic, timeless Jordan 1 silhouette we all love. It’s not the OG high, but the Mid cut is super versatile. Putting them on, they feel true to size with a snug, supportive fit right out of the box. The ankle collar is comfortable, no breaking in needed. Unboxing this 'Light Smoke Grey' pair was a nice experience. The colors are more subtle in person, which I actually love. At ~$125 USD, the "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE" represents solid value in today's market. You're paying for the iconic design and brand, not necessarily groundbreaking materials. It's a fair trade-off for most people. Unboxing this 'Dark Powder Blue' Air Jordan 1 Mid SE. The color really pops in hand! As part of the Jordan series, it keeps all the classic design cues. On foot, they're not heavy, but the cushioning is just okay—it's that familiar, firm feel. Where these shine? Their versatility. You can dress them up or down. For the price (typically $135 USD), you're paying for the heritage and look. Not the best if you're on your feet for 10+ hours. So, great for style, average for comfort. Your call! Just copped this new SE version, and the materials genuinely impressed me! The mid-top silhouette is iconic, and this particular pair has a really cool, almost faded aesthetic. Is it worth the $125? If you love the Jordan 1 look but want something a "little" different from the usual releases, then absolutely. If you need max comfort for all-day standing? Maybe look elsewhere.
