It's for someone who wants that iconic Jordan 1 aesthetic — in a Mid SE cut — without the crazy resale price of some Highs. Great first Jordan, great beater pair, great for casual collectors. 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. Putting these "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE" sneakers on… they feel exactly like you'd expect. The ankle collar is a bit lower than the Highs, obviously, which gives you a little more freedom. The cushioning is firm – it's that classic AJ1 feel, so don't expect crazy comfort for all-day wear right away. They need a brief break-in period. Here's my take after a full day in these Air Jordan 1 Mid SE sneakers. The 'Sail' and neutral tones look even better in natural light—super photogenic. They're comfortable enough for casual wear, but I have to note the toe box creasing; it happens fast with this type of leather. At around $135 USD, it's a fair price for a Jordan Brand shoe. I'd say these are ideal if you're building a collection with versatile pieces. If you're super concerned about keeping your kicks pristine, the material choice might frustrate you.
