For $145, you get a noticeable upgrade in perceived quality over the base model. Is it a must-have? No, but it's a very strong offer if you love the AJ1 Low silhouette and want a more premium, unique version. It fills a specific niche in the Jordan lineup nicely. Who's this for? Honestly, for the style-focused person who wants a unique, everyday low-top. It's perfect if you have several Jordans & want something different. Also, great for someone new to the line who wants a modern entry point. The wearability is its biggest strength. Who is this for? Honestly, if you're new to sneakers & want a "taste" of the Jordan legacy without breaking the bank ($120 USD, remember?), this is a fantastic entry point. It's also for the collector who appreciates a clean, wearable colorway. If you need maximal comfort or hate breaking shoes in... maybe skip it. For the price point – again, around $110 USD – this is a solid pick from the Jordan series. The design is simple but effective; I think the "Air Jordan 1 Low SE" looks even better on foot than in the box. It's not a hype shoe, and that's okay. It's a reliable, clean option for someone who wants that iconic look without the fuss.
