The fit is true to size for me, good lockdown around the ankle. Let's be real, the air jordan 1 black isn't known for plush cushioning; it's firm, board-like underfoot. That's just how this model is. But for lifestyle wear, it's totally fine. The support is great, and they don't feel heavy at all when walking. Conversely, who should maybe skip it? If pure comfort is your #1 priority - look elsewhere. If you need a performance basketball shoe - this isn't it (despite its origins). Also, if you're on a tight budget, $180 is a lot for a shoe that isn't technologically advanced. It's an investment in style, not necessarily in foot-feel innovation. Comparing these to other Jordans... The AJ1 Black is much stiffer than, say, a Jordan 3 or 4. The silhouette is just iconic though. The high-top design and that Swoosh... timeless. If you're after pure comfort tech, look elsewhere. But if you want a foundational sneaker in your rotation? This is it. A true Jordan series staple. Who should skip it? If you prioritize supreme comfort above all else – maybe try a Jordan 13 or something with more Zoom. If you're on a tight budget, $180 USD for a shoe with basic tech might feel steep. And if you already own multiple black-based Jordans? You might not "need" this specific "Air Jordan 1 Black", unless you're a completionist.
