That initial hit of blue is fantastic. On foot, the break-in is real (expect some stiffness at first), but once molded, the fit is fantastic. It's a straightforward, no-gimmicks sneaker from the Jordan series, and sometimes that's exactly what you want. So, who is this for? I'd say it's perfect for the sneaker enthusiast who appreciates the history. It's for someone who wants a durable, iconic shoe to build outfits around. If you're looking for your first "Jordan 1" and want a colorway that's not the usual red/black/white, this blue is a stellar option. It's a statement piece that's still relatively wearable. So, would I cop? Already did. It fills a specific role: a vibrant, yet wearable everyday shoe. Compared to a Patent Leather AJ1, this is much easier to maintain & pair. In the grand scheme of the "Jordan series", the AJ1 High remains king for a reason. This "blue" version is a stellar example. If you like the color, you won't be disappointed. Just break 'em in slowly! How do they look on foot? Man, this colorway is versatile. The "Air Jordan 1 Blue" works with jeans, joggers, even some shorts. The high-top shape is iconic, and this specific blue is just easy to style. On camera or in person, it's a sharp, clean look that won't go out of style. A definite win for your rotation.
