Unboxing, the colors are vibrant! The SE (Special Edition) often means unique materials or tweaks. On foot, they're comfortable enough, but remember – it's a flat, firm ride. Great for standing/walking, not for running or long comfort sessions. That's just the Jordan 1 DNA. Here's my real take: the "air jordan 1 mid se" is the "practical" choice in the Jordan lineup. 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. Let's talk materials on this specific Air Jordan 1 Mid SE pair. The mix of smooth and textured leathers adds great depth. On feet, they feel sturdy—like a proper basketball shoe from the 80s (which it is, design-wise). Compared to a Dunk, the toe box shape is slightly roomier. Major pro? The iconic style is unbeatable. Con? The outsole is a total fingerprint/dust magnet. A must for Jordan 1 fans who appreciate details, but maybe a pass if you want a low-maintenance shoe. Just being honest! Sliding my foot in... yeah, the fit is true to size for me. Initial feel? It's a Jordan 1, so don't expect clouds. It's firm, supportive – that classic court feel. The "ankle" padding is decent, and the lockdown through the midfoot is good. If you're used to modern, super-soft sneakers, the break-in period here might feel a bit... stiff. But for me, that's part of the Jordan 1 DNA.
