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. Alright, first impression unboxing this "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE" — the color blocking is sharp! This 'Bleached Coral' version has a clean, almost vintage feel straight out the box. Quality? It's a Mid SE, so you're getting that classic Jordan 1 shape & decent materials for the price point— around $135. It feels good, not "luxe", but definitely solid for the cost. The perforations on the swoosh are a nice detail. Let's talk pros & cons, "real quick". The biggest pro? Versatility. This "Mid" SE design goes with "so" many fits. The cons? That break-in period – the first few wears can be tough. Compared to a Jordan 1 High, you lose some of that classic, ""OG"" prestige. But you gain a more accessible, everyday sneaker. It's a trade-off, honestly. So, who is this for? It's perfect for someone new to sneakers, wanting their first pair of Jordans. Also great for collectors who appreciate a clean, wearable colorway. If you prioritize timeless style over cutting-edge comfort, you'll love the "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE".
