Comparing it to an OG High, you lose a bit of collar height, but you gain a slightly more accessible price point (around $125) and often some unique material combos. The comfort is identical – which means decent, but not plush. It's a style-first shoe, and it delivers. 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. Now, a potential con. The ankle support. If you’re used to the locked-in feel of a High-top Jordan 1, the "Mid SE" will feel noticeably less secure. It’s not for serious ball anymore (not that any 1s really are). Also, some purists just don’t vibe with the Mid silhouette. It’s a personal preference thing, but it’s worth noting. Comparing it to my other Jordans... the "air jordan 1 mid se" sits between a High and a Low, obviously. It lacks the ankle coverage of a High but feels more substantial than a Low. For lifestyle wear, I often prefer the Mid's proportions. It's less bulky than a High but still makes a statement. Honestly, it's a perfect middle-ground model for casual fits.
