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. Now, a potential con for some: the comfort level. If you're used to Boost, React, or even newer Air units, the "Air Jordan 1" will feel pretty stiff and flat. It breaks in, sure, but it's never a "cloud." Also, at $180, it's not cheap for a shoe with 1985 tech. Just being honest! After wearing them for a bit, I appreciate the solid feel. They mold to your foot over time. But let's be real: the outsole is thin and you'll feel the ground. That's the classic Jordan 1 experience. It’s a trade-off for that perfect, low-profile silhouette. Potential downside? The leather can crease easily—it's part of the charm for some, a deal-breaker for others. Also, that stiff ankle collar might bother some folks initially. It's a "classic" construction, not a modern one. So, if you're new to the Jordan 1 world, just know what you're getting into. It's not a "tech" shoe. It's a style icon.
