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. Conversely, the Air Jordan 1 Mid SE might "not" be for you if you prioritize ultra-soft, bouncy comfort above all else. It's a flat, court-inspired shoe. If you need arch support or are on your feet all day, consider something with more tech. Also, if you're a strict "Highs only" Jordan purist, the Mid cut might feel like a compromise. Just copped this new SE version, and the materials genuinely impressed me! The mid-top silhouette is iconic, and this particular pair has a really cool, almost faded aesthetic. 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. Unboxing this pair, the quality seems consistent—good leather, clean stitching. Sliding my foot into this 'Air Jordan 1 Mid SE,' the lockdown is immediate. It’s a firm, secure feel, not mushy. For basketball heritage, it's more about style than performance now. I'd recommend these to anyone wanting a staple sneaker. If you're a pure comfort-head, this classic build might not be your first pick.
