This 'Taxi' colorway with the yellow toe is so vibrant. The leather is stiff initially, but it forms to your foot. My pro-tip? Wear thicker socks for the first few outings. The high-cut collar provides great ankle support, which I love, but some might find it restrictive. It's a trade-off for that classic look. On foot now — let’s talk feel. The "Air Jordan 1 High" isn't known for being a plush sneaker. It’s firm, supportive, and has that structured, locked-in feel. The ankle support from the high collar is noticeable! Compared to a Jordan 13, it’s definitely less cushioned. It’s more about style & support than cloud-like comfort. Just being real with you. After wearing these for a week, my final take? I love them for what they are. A style powerhouse. The $180 is for the legacy & the look. Are they the comfiest shoes in my rotation? No. But do I grab them when I want to look good with zero effort? Absolutely, 100%. Sliding these Air Jordan 1 Highs on, you get that "instant" classic feel. The lockdown is "fantastic"—my foot feels secure. But let's be real: the cushioning is... firm. It’s not about modern "squish"; it's about that responsive, court-ready feel. If you want cloud-like comfort, this "might not" be your first pick.
