First glance? The 'Black White Red' color blocking is a "classic" - instantly recognizable. The materials feel decent for the price point (around $125). It's that iconic Jordan 1 mid silhouette, just… cleaner? The leather on the toe box is softer than I expected. A very solid first impression straight out of the box, honestly. Okay, first impression: this specific Air Jordan 1 Mid SE uses some nice materials! The mix of textures on the upper is a great detail. On foot, it's light and offers good ankle mobility. Honestly, I'd choose this over a bulkier High for all-day wear. The "major" pro is its versatility. The con? Some pure OG fans might miss the High-top collar. But if you want a comfy, stylish Jordan 1 for a reasonable price? This is it. Who might want to skip it? If you prioritize ultimate comfort above all else — maybe look elsewhere. Also, if you're a purest who "only" rocks Jordan 1 Highs and dislikes the Mid silhouette's proportions... this obviously isn't for you. But for most people seeking a stylish, wearable sneaker? The "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE" in this iteration is a really solid pick. Okay, so here's my first look at this "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE" in this grey and blue colorway. Straight out of the box, the leather quality feels pretty good – not super premium, but definitely solid for the price point. I love how clean this color-blocking is; it's super versatile. Honestly, a great first impression for a Mid.
