Air jordan 1 black : Opening the box, that new leather smell gets me every time [mfsfg3nl]

This "Black" colorway is so sharp and versatile. On foot, the shoe has a decent weight — feels durable. It's not a modern comfort shoe, let's be clear. But compared to other OG Jordan 1 colorways, this one is arguably the most wearable daily. The $180 USD feels justified for the quality and longevity. A staple, not a shock-value sneaker. On foot now. Let's be real—the comfort isn't 'modern'. It's a firm ride, but the lockdown is fantastic. It feels secure & supportive. The leather on this all-"black" version is decent, it'll crease but that's part of the charm. If you need plush cushioning, look elsewhere. This is about style & feel, not tech. Who should skip it? If you need plush, all-day comfort—look at New Balance or ultra-boosted runners. Performance basketball players, obviously, should get a modern hoop shoe. And if you already have multiple black-based sneakers, this "air jordan 1 black" might feel redundant. It's a specific tool for a specific job. The biggest "pro" of this shoe is its versatility and legacy. You're getting a piece of Jordan history that works with 90% of your wardrobe. It's easy to clean, durable, and the colorway hides creases pretty well over time. For a sneaker at this price in the Jordan series, it’s a practical, long-term investment in your collection.
