You lose a bit of that classic, high-top look, but you gain easier wearability. It's less restrictive around the ankle. If you want the iconic High OG shape, this isn't it – but if you want the Jordan 1 style with a more casual, modern twist, the SE version is a great alternative. Final thoughts: The Air Jordan 1 Mid SE 'Coconut Milk' is a win in my book. Great first impression, timeless on-foot look, and a fair price for the Jordan lineage. It's not the most innovative shoe, but it executes its design perfectly. A solid 8/10 for me. What do you guys think? Let me know below On feet now... and it's exactly what you'd expect from a Jordan 1 Mid. The fit is true to size, offering that familiar, secure lockdown around the ankle and forefoot. Comfort-wise? Let's be real - it's not a plush, modern sneaker. The cushioning is firm, which I actually don't mind for all-day wear. The "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE" is more about style than supreme comfort, and that's totally fine for its purpose. It's a timeless look, after all. Alright, let's unbox these Air Jordan 1 Mid SEs. First off, the 'White Gym Red' color-blocking is super clean & classic right out of the box. The materials feel decent for the $130 price point, nothing crazy premium, but the leather has a nice smooth finish? The shape is that iconic AJ1 silhouette we all love – it’s just a timeless look, no doubt.
