Hardcore OG Jordan 1 High purists might skip it for the silhouette difference. Also, if you want the latest tech or crazy materials, this isn't it. It's a classic, not an experiment. 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. Wrapping up – is the Air Jordan 1 Mid SE worth it? In my book, yes. It fills a gap in the market. You get that legendary Jordan Brand aesthetic without the hunt or the high price tag of some retros. Just manage your expectations on materials and comfort. As a staple sneaker, it absolutely works. Don't sleep on it just because it's not an OG High. Sometimes, the simpler version is the smarter buy. 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!
