The shape looks good right out of the box. On-feet review: the ankle collar provides good support, and the outsole grip is solid for casual wear. Compared to a Dunk Low, I find the AJ1 Mid SE has more structure. It's a great shoe for beginners in the sneaker game. Who should skip it? Maybe those who find the mid-top silhouette too "basic" now. But for $125? It's a classic for a reason. Alright, what's up everyone. So, I just got the new Air Jordan 1 Mid SE in this really clean colorway. Right out of the box, I'm impressed—the leather feels decent for the price point, around $135. It's that classic Jordan 1 silhouette we all know. Sliding them on? Immediate comfort, seriously. The break-in period is basically non-existent compared to some Highs. For a simple, versatile sneaker? This Mid SE version is a solid yes for me. My final verdict? For $120 USD, this Air Jordan 1 Mid SE is a "easy recommend" for a daily beater or a first Jordan. You get that timeless style from the Jordan series. Just go in knowing the comfort is more about support than softness. It's a wardrobe staple, not a tech marvel. Who might want to skip it? If you prioritize ultimate comfort above all else — maybe look elsewhere. Also, if you're a purest who "only" rocks Jordan 1 Highs and dislikes the Mid silhouette's proportions... this obviously isn't for you. But for most people seeking a stylish, wearable sneaker? The "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE" in this iteration is a really solid pick.
