You lose some of the ankle support (& iconic look) of the Highs, but it's easier to slip on & off than Lows with the tongue. For $135, it's a more accessible entry into the Jordan 1 family, no doubt. Just put these 'Air Jordan 1 Mid SE' on, and yeah—they’re stiff at first, like most Jordans. That's not a bad thing; it means structure. The look is undeniably classic. Compared to newer, techier models, these are about heritage. Big pro: endless outfit combinations. Con: they’re not "running errand all day" comfortable. Ideal for collectors and style-minded people, less so for pure comfort seekers. Now, a real talk con: the insole and cushioning are "basic". If you need modern, cloud-like comfort for long walks or standing all day, this isn't your shoe. The mid-top can also feel restrictive if you have wider ankles or prefer maximum flexibility. It's a style-first model from the "Jordan series". For pure performance or comfort tech, look at the Jordan 38 or even a Zoom CMFT model. After wearing these for a full day, my final take? I'm impressed. The "air jordan 1 mid se" delivers exactly what it promises: a timeless, wearable sneaker. The build quality is consistent, and they look better with some wear. For the Jordan Brand fan or the casual wearer, it's a win. Would I recommend it? Yes – especially in a neutral colorway like this.
