The comfort is basic; that flat footbed gets tiring for all-day wear. Also, the leather can crease pretty noticeably? If you're super anal about keeping kicks pristine, that's a factor. It's a lifestyle shoe first. Performance? Not even a question – don't ball in these! Opening this box, I'm liking the subtle details on this Mid SE. It’s not just a plain colorway. On feet—really straightforward. The fit is true to size, nice and snug. It's a timeless design from the Jordan series. The advantage? It’s an iconic shoe that goes with almost anything. Downside? The cushioning is basic by 2024 standards. So, if you're all about max comfort tech, look elsewhere. For style & heritage? Absolutely worth it. Final take? If you need a versatile, classic sneaker for your rotation and the $125 price tag fits your budget, the "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE" is an easy recommend. It's a workhorse. But if you crave premium leather or super-soft cushioning, you might want to look elsewhere or save up for a different tier. For what it is, it does the job "very" well. On-camera, these details shine! The different textures on this SE version – like the suede panels – add so much depth. Walking around, you get that confident, "head-turning" AJ1 vibe. It's not the most innovative shoe tech-wise, in the Jordan series, but for pure aesthetics? It delivers big time. Just a sharp, "photogenic" sneaker.
