It's not ultra-plush, but it's a familiar, stable feel. The SE version here has decent padding around the collar. For walking around all day? It's totally fine. Don't expect React or Zoom levels of cushion, but for a classic-style sneaker, the Air Jordan 1 Low SE gets the job done. Who should skip it? If you need arch support or a super soft ride, this isn't your shoe. Also, if you already own multiple black/white/grey low-tops, this might feel redundant — though the SE details are a nice change. And for hardcore collectors only chasing OG colorways? This might not move the needle. It's a fantastic "daily wear" shoe, not necessarily a grail. The "potential" con? That classic AJ1 "feel". If you need plush, modern cushioning... look elsewhere. The footbed is firm. Also, some might find the ankle collar a "bit" stiff initially. It's not for "long", "long" walks where comfort is king. Know what you're buying: style & heritage over cloud-like comfort. On feet now, and honestly, the comfort is decent. It's still an "air jordan 1 low se", so don't expect insane cushioning—it's firm but wearable. The break-in is minimal though! The wrap feels secure, and the weight is nice & light for all-day wear. A great casual, go-to sneaker, in my opinion.
