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. Who is this shoe for? Honestly, it's great for sneaker newcomers, students, or anyone wanting a durable, everyday Jordan. The "Air Jordan 1 Mid" platform is timeless. Who isn't it for? Hardcore comfort seekers or performance basketball players - this isn't a 2024 performance shoe! For casual wear and style points, though, it's a home run. It's a straightforward, no-regrets kind of purchase from the "Jordan series". Comparing this SE to a standard Mid – you're getting those unique material plays, which I appreciate! This particular "air jordan 1 mid se" uses a nice, tumbled leather. For the price? It's fair. The insole is pretty standard, nothing special. Who's it for? Someone who wants the AJ1 look without the High top price or the Low top simplicity. It's a perfect middle ground, "literally". Just size true to fit. Here's my real take: the Air Jordan 1 Mid SE is a workhorse. For ~$135 USD, you get a piece of sneaker history in a more wearable package. The build quality on my pair is good—no glue stains or anything. Walking in them feels natural. Compared to some newer Jordans, it’s less techy, more classic. Great for collectors who also want to wear their kicks. Not so great for performance basketball, obviously. A definite recommend for casual wear.
