On my 'Bleached Coral' pair, it's mostly synthetic leather. It's fine, but it won't crease or age as nicely as premium leather. For some collectors, that's a deal-breaker. For a daily beater? It's totally acceptable, especially for the price. Alright, let's get into these "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE" sneakers. First off, the "Bright Citrus" colorway is "crazy" vibrant in hand... way more than the stock photos showed. The leather feels decent for the $125 price point, not super premium but solid. Sliding them on, the fit is true to size with that classic, secure AJ1 feel. Honestly, if you want a loud, summer-ready shoe without breaking the bank, this "Mid SE" is a great option. Just know the leather might not be as buttery as some Retro Highs. Let's talk pros and cons. The biggest "pro" for this Air Jordan 1 Mid is its versatility and price point. At this price, it's a great entry into the Jordan series. The "con"? The materials, while good, aren't premium leather. They're more of a durable synthetic. If you're a materials snob, you might be disappointed. Alright, first impression unboxing this "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE" — the color blocking is sharp! This 'Bleached Coral' version has a clean, almost vintage feel straight out the box. Quality? It's a Mid SE, so you're getting that classic Jordan 1 shape & decent materials for the price point— around $135. It feels good, not "luxe", but definitely solid for the cost. The perforations on the swoosh are a nice detail.
