But next to other AJ1s, the quality feels consistent. For $180, you're paying for the legacy and style, not tech. A possible downside? That break-in period can be a bit rough on the heels. Just wear thicker socks initially. On feet, the fit is true to size for me. The break-in period is real, though - that classic, "sturdy" build means it's not super plush right away. The ankle collar provides good support! The "air jordan 1 black" is about structure, not modern, bouncy comfort. It’s a different feel compared to newer Jordans, for sure. Now, the potential downsides. The comfort - I have to be real. If you're used to Zoom Air or Boost, this will feel stiff. It's not a "all-day walking" shoe for everyone. Also, the break-in period - some might find it uncomfortable at first. And the price - $180 for a retro design with basic cushioning? That's a legit point of contention for some sneakerheads. After wearing them, here's the verdict. The Air Jordan 1 Black is a legend. The quality is there for the price. They feel secure and supportive. However, ventilation isn't great – your feet might get warm. I'd suggest these for casual wear and style enthusiasts. Probably skip them for athletic performance or if you have wide feet.
