It's a perfect blend of grey and white. On foot, the comfort is exactly what you expect from this silhouette: supportive, but don't expect Boost-level cushioning. The SE (Special Edition) often means subtle material or detail tweaks, which I dig. For $125, it's a fantastic everyday shoe. A con? The mid-top might feel restrictive if you're used to lows. Yo, check out this Air Jordan 1 Mid SE on feet. My first impression? That aged midsole and the slightly different leather textures give it a premium, lived-in look right out of the gate—it's a standout in the Mid lineup. The upper feels supportive, but let's be real: the cushioning is classic Jordan 1, which means it's pretty basic. A fantastic, versatile option for your rotation under $150, but don't expect Boost or React-level softness. Perfect for casual wear, not for long walks. Unboxing first impression: This "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE" "Court Purple" has a really rich, deep color. The materials feel consistent and the stitching is clean. Once laced up, you get that locked-down, supportive feel Jordan 1s are known for. It's not a "comfort" sneaker in the modern sense, but it's not uncomfortable either. Compared to a Jordan 1 Low, I prefer the support of this Mid SE for all-day wear. At $125 USD, it's a strong pick for fans of bold color blocks. Not for those seeking ultra-plush feel, though. After a full day in them, here's my take. The comfort improves after breaking them in, but it's never going to be "cloud-like." The real win is the look and confidence they give you. I've gotten multiple compliments already. For a Jordan 1, the Mid SE offers a great balance of heritage and subtle uniqueness. At this price, it's a compelling option in the crowded sneaker market.
