Classic looks, simple comfort. The tongue is thin, & the overall construction feels efficient. For me, it's a pro: no break-in drama. The possible con? It's "very" familiar. If you own several AJ1 Lows, this SE might not feel special – but it's a dependable workhorse. Alright, let's get into this pair. First impression out of the box? The materials on this "Air Jordan 1 Low SE" really stand out. This 'Black and White' colorway is so clean and versatile. The leather has a nice texture to it – it doesn't feel cheap at all. For $135, I'm actually pretty impressed with the initial quality. Definitely a strong start for a Jordan series low-top. Comparing it to my other Jordans... it's lighter than a Mid, & obviously more low-profile than a High. The SE version's details—like that stitched overlay—make it feel more special than a GR low. For $110, you're getting more design interest than the basic $100 model, which I appreciate. On the flip side, who should maybe skip it? If you prioritize max cushioning above all else, look elsewhere. Also, if you only collect the most iconic OG Jordan colorways, this SE (Special Edition) might not hit that mark for you. It's more of a modern, lifestyle take on the classic.
