The Session comes across like an authentic skate shoe, with flat laces, a rounded shape, and a rugged sole. While the skate influence is evident, it's the Jordan detailing that makes it pop. Suede on the upper and wave-like paneling give the sneaker structure and depth.
Underneath, the gum rubber outsole ties back to classic retro skate models, built for grip and durability. Added heel paneling reinforces the fit, showing how design choices support both look and function.
Comfort makes the difference between a sneaker that sells once and a sneaker that gets worn daily. Studies show that 83% of sneaker shoppers put comfort first when choosing a pair, and Jordan built the Session with that priority in mind. The Session includes a cushioned interior and supportive structure that make it easy to wear for long hours. A thicker outsole adds durability without losing flexibility.
This combination of toughness and comfort links the Session to Jordan's past success. The same formula carried Air Jordan models from hardwood performance into music videos and streetwear wardrobes. The Session shifts that strategy to a different audience, one that values the look and feel of skateboarding shoes while still respecting Jordan's heritage.
