If you have "really" wide feet, the standard AJ1 Mid SE last might feel a bit restrictive. I'd suggest trying a pair on if you can. Also, purists who only rock Highs might overlook this model. But hey, that's their loss—this is a comfy, stylish shoe for the rest of us. Comparing it to my other Jordans — specifically, the OG High — the main difference is obviously the collar height. The "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE" offers a different vibe. It's less restrictive, a bit more casual-day-to-day for me. The materials might feel a step down from some premium High releases, but for a general release at this price? It's completely understandable and fair, in my opinion. Wrapping up – would I recommend it? Yes, but with context. The Jordan 1 Mid SE fills a specific niche. It's more affordable and often has unique color stories. If you dig the look and understand the classic feel, it's a great buy. Don't sleep on the Mids! So, who is this for? It's perfect for someone new to sneakers, wanting their first pair of Jordans. Also great for collectors who appreciate a clean, wearable colorway. If you prioritize timeless style over cutting-edge comfort, you'll love the "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE".
