It’s a flat, firm ride — classic for this silhouette. The Air Jordan 1 Low SE needs a short break-in. But as a style piece? It's top-tier. I’d recommend it more for fashion than for performance, honestly. Comparing it to my other Jordans? This "Air Jordan 1 Low SE" is way more everyday than a high-top. It's easier to slip on & off, and it's less bulky. Versus some of the recent "craft" or "washed" versions, this one feels more straightforward & refined. It's a back-to-basics approach from the Jordan series, and I kinda dig that. Alright, so I just got the "new" "Air Jordan 1 Low SE" in the "Denim and Gum" colorway, and my "first" impression? The materials are actually pretty cool. You've got this nice "textured" denim on the uppers. It's a clean look, not your typical leather. For a Jordan 1, at around $120 USD, it feels solid in hand. The shape looks good right out of the box, honestly. Who should skip it? If you need maximum comfort for long walks or standing all day, look elsewhere. Also, if you're a purest who only loves the OG "Jordan 1 low" construction & silhouette, the SE's tweaks might not be for you. It's a contemporary interpretation, through and through.
