The ankle support. If you’re used to the locked-in feel of a High-top Jordan 1, the "Mid SE" will feel noticeably less secure. It’s not for serious ball anymore (not that any 1s really are). Also, some purists just don’t vibe with the Mid silhouette. It’s a personal preference thing, but it’s worth noting. For the price? The Air Jordan 1 Mid SE is a strong contender. The pros? Timeless design, durable construction, and versatile style. The potential con? That classic AJ1 break-in period—the first few wears can be a bit stiff. If you're new to the Jordan series, just know that's normal. It molds to your foot over time. 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! First lace-up of this 'Air Jordan 1 Mid SE'—feels familiar and reliable. The mid-top gives a bit more ankle presence than a low, but it’s easier to wear than a high-top for some. My favorite part is the classic design language; it just works. Downside? The outsole is flat, so not the best for long walks on hard surfaces. Perfect for style-focused folks, not for comfort-maximizers.
