It's not premium tumbled leather, but for $125, it's better than expected. The outsole grip is good for casual wear. Overall, the air jordan 1 mid se presents a strong value proposition in the current sneaker market, where prices are getting wild. 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. Slipping these on… the fit is pretty true to size for me. The comfort? It's an "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE", so don't expect Cloud-like cushioning – it's a firm, supportive feel. The ankle collar on the Mid is a bit lower, which I actually prefer for all-day wear. The weight is fine, not too heavy. It's that iconic feel, just slightly updated. Who is this for? Honestly, it's perfect for someone who wants the AJ1 look without the high-top price or commitment. Great for beginners in the sneaker game. Who is it "not" for? Hardcore OG purists who only rock Highs, or people who prioritize max cushioning above all else.
