The design is crisp. Walking in them feels natural; the outsole is flexible. A clear advantage is its versatility. However, the toe box leather can crease noticeably – that's just the nature of this model. If you're okay with that "lived-in" look, you'll love these. The major pro for this air jordan 1 low se? The elevated materials and design tweaks - at a really accessible price point of $135. The mesh and leather combo is executed well, and it doesn't feel cheap. It’s a step up from a GR (General Release) without stepping into crazy "collab" territory. For a Jordan Brand offering, that's a win in my book. On foot now, and the comfort is... exactly what you'd expect from a Jordan 1 Low. It's not plush like a modern runner, but it's comfortable enough for all-day wear. The break-in is minimal! The SE version feels a bit lighter than some past releases, which is a nice plus for casual use. True to size for me. 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.
