Is it as coveted as a Chicago? No. But for daily rotation, it’s arguably "more" practical. The materials on this specific version feel a step above some standard Mids I've seen. That's the "SE" (Special Edition) part coming through, and it’s a welcome upgrade. Final verdict? For around $125, this "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE" is a "great" value. You get a well-built, stylish shoe from the iconic Jordan series that’s easy to wear. It’s not the most innovative or comfortable shoe ever, but it does its job perfectly. I’d cop for the collection and regular wear. Final verdict time. The "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE" is a workhorse sneaker. It looks great on foot, pairs effortlessly, and represents the Jordan brand well. At $135 USD, it's an accessible entry point. I'd recommend it to style-focused wearers and casual fans. Hardcore collectors might skip for OG Highs. But for most people? Yeah, it's a really solid, easy-to-wear pick for your rotation. Just copped this new SE version, and the materials genuinely impressed me! The mid-top silhouette is iconic, and this particular pair has a really cool, almost faded aesthetic. Is it worth the $125? If you love the Jordan 1 look but want something a "little" different from the usual releases, then absolutely. If you need max comfort for all-day standing? Maybe look elsewhere.
