First impression? That University Blue color is just "so" clean in hand. The leather quality on this 'SE' version feels pretty standard, but the color-blocking is classic Jordan 1. For $115, it's a solid start. The shape looks good right out of the box, which is always a plus. Here’s a quick comparison for you: versus a standard Jordan 1 Low, this SE version often uses more unique materials – like you see here. Versus a Jordan 1 Mid or High? Well, it's obviously lower cut and lighter. If you love the Jordan 1 style but want less bulk and more breathability for summer, this Air Jordan 1 Low SE is a no-brainer pick. Comparing it to other Jordans? As a "Low", it's obviously less restrictive than a high-top AJ1. For me, the "Air Jordan 1 Low SE" is a perfect spring/summer alternative. It lacks the ankle lockdown of the OG highs, but gains in everyday versatility. If you love the Jordan 1 silhouette but want something less bulky, this is a fantastic option from the Jordan series. Who is this for? Honestly, if you're new to sneakers & want a "taste" of the Jordan legacy without breaking the bank ($120 USD, remember?), this is a fantastic entry point. It's also for the collector who appreciates a clean, wearable colorway. If you need maximal comfort or hate breaking shoes in... maybe skip it.
