They're not heavy, but that flat, firm ride is noticeable. The pro? You feel connected to the ground. The cons are obvious for long walks. At around $180, you're paying for the design legacy. It's perfect for short outings, style shots, but not my go-to for all-day comfort. Unboxing the Air Jordan 1 High 'Taxi'. That vibrant yellow just hits different in natural light! On-foot feel is the classic AJ1: a bit rigid, but super supportive. Compared to an Air Jordan 1 Low, the High gives you that classic, protective feel. The major advantage is how this colorway stands out. The potential drawback? It's bold—not for the faint of heart. For $180, it's a fantastic statement piece in the Jordan line. If you like neutral tones, maybe pass. But if you want to turn heads? This is it. So, how do they look on-camera? Honestly, the "Air Jordan 1 High" is a dream to shoot. That tall profile and clean lines pop in photos—way more than any low-top. This "Shadow" grey colorway is super versatile for fits. The downside? They can feel a bit heavy/clunky compared to modern sneakers. But for that timeless sneakerhead aesthetic? They deliver, 100%. After wearing these for a full day, here's my real take. The "Air Jordan 1 High" shapes to your foot "eventually", but the break-in is real. The high-top provides great ankle "support" (not cushioning). Visually, it's a 10 — it makes you stand taller. A major pro is its mix-and-match potential with any wardrobe. A potential con? It's a bit heavy and clunky compared to modern trainers. Perfect for style, not for performance. Suits a casual, fashion-forward wearer best.
