The initial feel? It's exactly what you expect from an AJ1 – firm! This isn't a boost or Zoom kind of ride, folks. The ankle support & lockdown are top-tier, no question. But yeah, the break-in period is real; that stiff leather needs a few wears. Still, for a clean, blue colorway like this? The "air jordan 1 blue" is a silhouette that just "works". It's all about style, not squishy comfort. Let’s talk cons, honestly. The main thing with any "air jordan 1 blue", or most 1s really, is that break-in period. The back can be stiff at first. Also, that icy blue outsole? It's gonna get dirty, no doubt about it. It’s part of the charm, but if you're a perfectionist about keeping your kicks spotless, that's a factor to consider. Just keeping it 100% with you guys. Now, the potential con—and this is for "every" classic Jordan 1, really—is the comfort (or lack of "modern" comfort). If you're used to React foam or Zoom Air units, the "Air Jordan 1 Blue" will feel stiff and flat. It's a break-in period kind of shoe. Also, that leather can crease pretty noticeably, which some people absolutely hate. Just being real with you. Sliding these on... "wow". The fit is true to size for me, with that classic AJ1 break-in period. They're snug, supportive around the ankle – you know the drill. Comfort? Let's be real: it's a Jordan 1. You're not getting Boost or Zoom Air cloud-like feel here. It's a firm, stable ride, perfect for casual wear all day, "not" for a long run, obviously.
