Air jordan 1 black : Let's talk pros [mgfgvsau]

The biggest advantage of the air jordan 1 black is its outfit-matching capability—10/10. Durability is also a plus; the leather cleans up easily. I also love how it keeps the OG shape perfectly. It’s a shoe that actually looks better with some minor creasing. You're getting a legend for under $200 USD, and sometimes that's all you need. So, who are these for? If you're new to sneakers and want a timeless, easy-to-style first Jordan—this is it. Also great for collectors who appreciate foundational colorways. It's for someone who values style "over" cutting-edge comfort. You buy these to wear them hard, not to baby them. Opening the box, that new leather smell gets me every time. 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. Conversely, who should maybe skip it? If comfort is your #1 priority, look elsewhere. Also, if you're on a tight budget, $180 USD is a lot for a shoe that isn't technologically "advanced." And if you already have multiple black-based sneakers, you might find this redundant? But for a first Jordan 1, this black colorway is the ultimate starting point.
