.. okay, immediate thoughts? The fit is pretty true to size for me. The ankle collar on this SE version feels a bit more padded than some older Mids I own. Comfort-wise, let's be real: it's a Jordan 1. You're getting that firm, classic basketball court feel, not modern squishiness. If you need plush comfort, look elsewhere. 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. Alright, let's get into these Air Jordan 1 Mid SE. First up, the colorway on this pair is a classic Chicago-inspired vibe, and straight out of the box, the leather feels decent for the price point—which is around $135 USD. It's the iconic Jordan 1 silhouette, no surprises there. On foot, the fit is true to size, but the cushioning is firm (as expected). It's a timeless look, but if you need all-day comfort, know that this isn't a modern performance sneaker. Great for style, not for running errands all day. So, is this "Air Jordan 1 Mid SE" worth it? My take: "yes", but with a caveat. If you want a stylish, iconic-looking shoe – that won't destroy your wallet (around $125) – it's a great pick. If you need plush, all-day comfort "right away"? Maybe not. For a first Jordan, or a casual rotation staple, though? Definitely a strong contender.
