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. On foot, the Air Jordan 1 Mid SE is "exactly" what you expect: a firm, supportive ride. The ankle collar gives a secure lock-down, which I personally love for casual wear. The weight is standard for this model—nothing heavy, nothing groundbreaking. It’s the same tried-and-true feel that made the Jordan series iconic. Just don't go in expecting modern, plush cushioning, okay? My final verdict? For $120 USD, this Air Jordan 1 Mid SE is a "easy recommend" for a daily beater or a first Jordan. You get that timeless style from the Jordan series. Just go in knowing the comfort is more about support than softness. It's a wardrobe staple, not a tech marvel. Unboxing first impression: This "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE" "Court Purple" has a really rich, deep color. The materials feel consistent and the stitching is clean. Once laced up, you get that locked-down, supportive feel Jordan 1s are known for. It's not a "comfort" sneaker in the modern sense, but it's not uncomfortable either. Compared to a Jordan 1 Low, I prefer the support of this Mid SE for all-day wear. At $125 USD, it's a strong pick for fans of bold color blocks. Not for those seeking ultra-plush feel, though.
