Air jordan 1 chicago : Potential con? The lack of modern comfort tech [qnjfbdw2]

If you're on your feet all day, these aren't your best pick. Also, the leather can crease noticeably (but that's part of the charm for some). And at around $180 USD, it's an investment for a shoe that’s not “technically” advanced. Is it worth the $180 price tag? For this specific colorway—the "definitive" "Air Jordan 1 Chicago"—I'd say yes, if you love sneaker history. It's the grail for many. Compared to other AJ1s, this is the one that started it all. Pro: unmatched cultural clout. Con: the price and the fear of creasing! Not a daily beater shoe. It's for collectors and style enthusiasts. On feet now — and honestly, the "Air Jordan 1 Chicago" feels exactly how you'd expect: iconic, but not exactly plush. The ankle support is great, lockdown is solid, but the cushioning? It's firm. That's the classic AJ1 experience. If you're coming from something like a Jordan 13 or even a newer 5? It's a different world. You buy this for the look, not for cloud-like comfort. Now, the potential downsides... The comfort isn't for everyone. If you need plush, bouncy cushioning — look elsewhere. Also, that smooth white leather will crease, and it shows. And at around $180 retail (good luck finding it for that now), it's an investment for a "basic" tech shoe.
