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. So, is it worth it? At $125 USD, I'd say yes, "especially" if you find it on sale. You're getting that iconic Jordan 1 look and feel without the crazy resell prices. The Mid SE offers a fresh take on a classic. For a first Jordan or a reliable beater, it's a smart pickup, 100%. On foot now. Honestly, the comfort level of the Air Jordan 1 Mid SE is... exactly what you expect from a Jordan 1. It's not a modern, cushioned sneaker. The break-in period is real, but the ankle collar & overall lockdown feel secure. If you want pure comfort, look elsewhere. But for style? It delivers. Comparing it to other Jordans? This Air Jordan 1 Mid SE sits right between a High and a Low. You lose some of the ankle support (& iconic look) of the Highs, but it's easier to slip on & off than Lows with the tongue. For $135, it's a more accessible entry into the Jordan 1 family, no doubt.
