The ankle collar is a bit lower than the Highs, obviously, which gives you a little more freedom. The cushioning is firm – it's that classic AJ1 feel, so don't expect crazy comfort for all-day wear right away. They need a brief break-in period. What's up, everyone! Got this "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE" in today. This specific "Carbon Fiber" edition has some nice textured panels. My first thought? It's a sleek, all-black shoe with just enough detail. Wearing them, they feel a bit lighter than some older Jordan 1s I own. The major "pro" is versatility; you can match these with almost anything. The "con"? At $125, some might want more premium materials. If you need a foundational black sneaker in your rotation, this Mid SE deserves a look. Comparing it to my other Jordans — specifically, the OG High — the main difference is obviously the collar height. The "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE" offers a different vibe. It's less restrictive, a bit more casual-day-to-day for me. The materials might feel a step down from some premium High releases, but for a general release at this price? It's completely understandable and fair, in my opinion. On foot now. The fit is pretty TTS—true to size—for me. Comfort? Look, it’s an "Air Jordan 1 Mid", so don’t expect cloud-like softness. The cushioning is firm, classic basketball shoe feel. The ankle collar on the Mid is lower, which I actually prefer for all-day wear. It’s a bit lighter than the High version, too. A straightforward, no-surprises wear.
