It's a reliable, good-looking shoe. The pros are obvious: iconic look, easy to style, generally available. A potential con for some? It's "everywhere". You won't have a unique grail, but you'll have a dependable classic. For daily beaters, that's totally fine by me. Who should skip it? Hardcore comfort seekers, or people who need ankle support for sports. If you "only" want the "original" High OG cut, this isn't it. But for an everyday, iconic sneaker, this Mid SE version, part of the Jordan series, is a fantastic option. First impression on feet: immediate style points. The "air jordan 1 mid se" silhouette is just unbeatable for casual fits. Is it the most comfortable shoe in my rotation? "Not even close." But that's not the point. The ankle support is good, the toe box has room. If you prioritize comfort above all else, look elsewhere. But if you want a piece of sneaker history that always looks sharp, this Mid SE delivers at a decent $135. Who is this for? Honestly, it's perfect for someone who wants the AJ1 look without the high-top price or commitment. Great for beginners in the sneaker game. Who is it "not" for? Hardcore OG purists who only rock Highs, or people who prioritize max cushioning above all else.
