This particular SE (Special Edition) pair has great color blocking that goes with "everything"—jeans, joggers, you name it. The Mid height is less bulky than the High, so it can look a bit sleeker in fits. For a $120-$130 shoe, it offers a ton of versatility. That’s a major pro in my book. Now, who might want to skip it? If you have "really" wide feet, the narrow toe box could be an issue – consider sizing up. Also, if you prioritize advanced foot-tech and cloud-like comfort above all else? Look elsewhere. The "air jordan 1 mid se" is a style icon first. It's about that look and heritage feel. Just manage those expectations, folks. Here's my real take: the "air jordan 1 mid se" is the "practical" choice in the Jordan lineup. Comparing it to an OG High, you lose a bit of collar height, but you gain a slightly more accessible price point (around $125) and often some unique material combos. The comfort is identical – which means decent, but not plush. It's a style-first shoe, and it delivers. Putting these on my feet... the fit is true to size for me. Immediate feel? It’s a firm, supportive Jordan 1 feel – don't expect cloud-like comfort, that's not what this shoe is about. The ankle collar gives decent support. Honestly, the air jordan 1 mid se is about that iconic look and court-ready foundation. It's a classic for a reason.
