The sound on hard floors, the crease on the toe box… it’s all part of the experience. Compared to, say, a Dunk Low? The AJ1 has more structure, a higher collar. It’s a different kind of confidence. Love it or find it stiff – it's a very distinct feel. So, would I cop? Already did. It fills a specific role: a vibrant, yet wearable everyday shoe.
