The main one is comfort, or lack thereof. The midsole is thin and firm. Not great for all-day wear on concrete. Also, for $180, you might wish for better quality leather. Some pairs can have slight creasing issues early on. If you prioritize plush comfort above all, the "air jordan 1 blue" probably isn't your best first choice in the lineup. Let's be real about a potential con: the comfort. The Air Jordan 1 Blue, like most OG highs, has a break-in period. The heel can be stiff, and the toe box isn't the roomiest. If you have wide feet or prioritize cloud-like comfort above all, this might not be your go-to. It's a style-first, heritage sneaker — and that's totally okay! Just know what you're getting into. Walking around in these? The attention is real. The 'Air Jordan 1' in this shade just pops against simple jeans. On camera? It's a dream – that color-blocking is so crisp. Major pro: the versatility. This specific blue pairs with "so" much. Downside? That classic, slightly bulky AJ1 silhouette isn't for everyone seeking a "sleek" look. But if you want a statement piece, it delivers. So, who is this for? Honestly, if you're new to sneakers and want your first iconic "Jordan 1", this blue version is a fantastic choice. It's not as common as some colorways, so it feels a bit more unique. It's also great for collectors who appreciate a clean, wearable color. At $180, it's an investment in a piece of sneaker history you can actually wear daily.
