That mix of black, white, and gym red is just timeless. It goes with "literally" everything - jeans, shorts, joggers. The Mid height gives you a bit more ankle flexibility than a High, which I prefer for all-day wear. This "SE" version keeps the look sharp without extra fuss. Honestly, if you own several Jordan 1 Highs, the "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE" might feel like a step down in 'presence'. The silhouette is slightly different, less iconic. But! For practicality? The Mid wins for me. Easier to wear, often more interesting color stories in the SE line. This specific pair was $135, and for that, it's a great value if you're expanding your collection. Who should buy these? Honestly, first-time Jordan buyers, or anyone looking for a durable, stylish casual sneaker that isn't a basic trainer. The color-blocking is a home run. Who should "avoid" them? People with wide feet might find the toe box snug, and if you prioritize cloud-like comfort above all else, you'll be disappointed. Know what you're getting into! A potential "con", though? The tech – or lack of it. It's a 1985 design at its core. If you prioritize all-day comfort from something like Zoom Air or React foam, this isn't it. The ride is flat and firm. For casual wear, it's absolutely fine for me, but for long days on your feet? You might want to look at a Jordan model with more modern cushioning, no question.
