The silhouette is slightly different, less iconic. But! For practicality? The Mid wins for me. Easier to wear, often more interesting color stories in the SE line. This specific pair was $135, and for that, it's a great value if you're expanding your collection. On foot, the Air Jordan 1 Mid SE is "exactly" what you expect: a firm, supportive ride. The ankle collar gives a secure lock-down, which I personally love for casual wear. The weight is standard for this model—nothing heavy, nothing groundbreaking. It’s the same tried-and-true feel that made the Jordan series iconic. Just don't go in expecting modern, plush cushioning, okay? Now, who might want to skip it? If you have "really" wide feet, the narrow toe box could be an issue – consider sizing up. Also, if you prioritize advanced foot-tech and cloud-like comfort above all else? Look elsewhere. The "air jordan 1 mid se" is a style icon first. It's about that look and heritage feel. Just manage those expectations, folks. Now, a real talk con: the insole and cushioning are "basic". If you need modern, cloud-like comfort for long walks or standing all day, this isn't your shoe. The mid-top can also feel restrictive if you have wider ankles or prefer maximum flexibility. It's a style-first model from the "Jordan series". For pure performance or comfort tech, look at the Jordan 38 or even a Zoom CMFT model.
