It's a different world. You buy this for the look, not for cloud-like comfort. Side-by-side with other Jordans, the "air jordan 1 chicago" stands out purely on color. That bold red against white? Chef's kiss. On feet, they're lighter than they look, and the leather is soft enough. For the $180 USD, you get a versatile, statement shoe. The major downside is the lack of innovation—it's the same shoe from '85. I'd say it's a great buy for fans of classic design. Hardcore tech enthusiasts will be disappointed, though.
