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. Now, potential cons? The comfort. If you're used to modern, foam-heavy sneakers, the break-in period here is real. The ankle collar can rub at first. Also, the outsole grip is just okay on wet surfaces. It's not a performance shoe – it's a lifestyle icon. That’s the key thing to remember before you buy. 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. From an on-camera perspective, this shoe just "works". The lines are clean, and it doesn't have overly busy details that get lost on video. Wearing it feels... confident. It’s a staple. My verdict? For around $130 USD, this Mid SE offers fantastic value. It’s a reliable, good-looking shoe that gets the job done.
