Major "pro": the style is timeless, and this SE iteration often has interesting material or color tweaks that make it stand out from the crowd. It's a head-turner. The "con"? That stiff break-in period is real, folks. The first few wears can be a bit rough on the heels. Also, if you have wider feet, the "air jordan 1 mid se" can feel narrow—so maybe consider sizing up half. On foot now. Honestly, the comfort level of the Air Jordan 1 Mid SE is... exactly what you expect from a Jordan 1. It's not a modern, cushioned sneaker. The break-in period is real, but the ankle collar & overall lockdown feel secure. If you want pure comfort, look elsewhere. But for style? It delivers. So, should "you" cop? If you need a versatile, no-brainer sneaker that looks good with everything and carries the Jordan legacy, then 100%, go for it. But if your main criteria is advanced cushioning or you only collect rare releases, you can probably pass. For everyone else, this "Jordan series" Mid is a really smart, affordable pick-up. Thumbs up from me. Comparing it to other Jordans? Well, the air jordan 1 mid se sits between the Low and the High. It’s more accessible price-wise than many Highs, & offers more ankle structure than a Low. For daily wear, it’s a fantastic sweet spot. The trade-off? You don't get the exact OG High heritage, but you get 90% of the style at a better entry point, honestly.
