The leather cleans easily, the outsole seems durable. For $110 USD, you're getting a recognizable silhouette that’s built well enough. It’s not the most exciting shoe in the world, but the Air Jordan 1 Low SE is reliably cool. That counts for a lot. Let's talk about the "not-so-great" part for some people. The "Air Jordan 1 Low SE", like most in the series, isn't a "comfort-first" shoe. If you're used to modern, bouncy sneakers, the firm ride might be a downside. It's about style & heritage. So, if supreme all-day comfort is your #1 priority? This "might" not be your go-to. It's a trade-off, honestly. Now, a potential con? The break-in period. The heel collar can be a bit stiff initially, and - as I mentioned - the cushioning isn't super soft. If you're used to Ultra Boosts or React foam, this will feel very different (and firmer). It's not a "comfort-first" performance shoe; it's a style-first icon. That's just the nature of the AJ1 design, honestly. On foot, the profile is sleek! The lower cut and that slightly altered shape make it feel less bulky than a standard "Jordan 1 Low". It's a great casual shoe. However, if you're looking for cloud-like comfort – for all-day walking – this might "not" be your go-to. It's about style and that classic basketball heritage, "not" max cushioning.
