Sometimes mids get a bad rap, but this "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE" holds its own. The insole has a bit more give than older models—a small but welcome upgrade. The color palette here is easy to match. Walking in them, they feel sturdy, not cheap. It's a straightforward shoe that does its job well. Who's it for? Someone who appreciates the "Jordan 1" design but wants a slightly more modern, accessible version. Not for those seeking high-tech features or groundbreaking comfort. 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. Final thoughts? The 'Air Jordan 1 Mid SE' is a workhorse. The build is good, the styling is timeless, and the price is fair. On foot, they offer a confident, classic feel. They're not going to revolutionize comfort, but that's not the point. I recommend them for any sneaker fan wanting a versatile staple. However, if your priority is cloud-like cushioning above all else, you might want to explore other options in the market. 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.
