Peeling back that retro-style tissue paper… it sets the tone. The shoe itself has a stiff, "out-of-the-archive" feel initially. That's part of the charm! On foot, they're true to size, and the leather will soften. But remember, the "lost and found" theme means "planned imperfections". You gotta embrace that. A potential con? The "distressed" look. The cracked leather collar & yellowed midsole won't be for everyone. If you like your sneakers "pristine" and crisp, this might feel intentionally "dirty" to you. Also, that stiff, classic Jordan 1 feel isn't for all-day comfort seekers. It’s a style & heritage piece first, a comfort shoe second. Just keep that in mind. Here’s the real talk, though: the cons. That stiff leather needs a real break-in period — it's not "wear-all-day" comfortable at first. Also, the pre-yellowed soles & cracks might not be for purists who want a "crisp" Chicago. And at this price point? Some might prefer a more "technologically" advanced Jordan model for performance. Just being honest. So, who should get the Air Jordan 1 Lost & Found? Collectors, Chicago-colorway lovers, anyone who values "storytelling" in their sneakers. If you missed the 2015 Chicagos, this is your "answer". Who should avoid? Folks wanting modern comfort or a pristine, clean look. This shoe is "meant" to look lived-in. It's a "mood".
