.. the fit is true to size for me. The "air jordan 1 black" has that familiar, snug wrap around the ankle — it's supportive! But let's be real about the "Air" unit; cushioning is firm, not plush. It's more about board feel than bounce. Compared to newer J's, like a Jordan 13 or even a 3, the comfort is definitely more "old-school." You buy this for the style, not the cloud-like step. Is it comfortable for all-day wear? Honestly, after a few hours, you'll feel that firm sole. I'd add an insole for sure. But for shorter wears or just looking sharp? Unbeatable. The "Air Jordan 1 Black" is for collectors and style-focused folks, "not" for performance basketball or long-distance walking. Keep that in mind. Who should "avoid" it? If you prioritize ultimate comfort above all else, maybe look at a New Balance or a Jordan with more cushioning. Also, if your budget is tight, there are more affordable casual options – but you're not getting this history or look. The "air jordan 1 black" is for those who value style & legacy, sometimes over pure, pillowy comfort. Now, the cons - and be real, every shoe has 'em. The comfort isn't for everyone. If you need plush, bouncy sneakers, look at AJ 3s or 13s. Also, the flat sole and lack of grip aren't for actual basketball. The leather quality can be inconsistent; some pairs are better than others. It’s an "authentic" 1985 experience, for better or worse.
