It's not a running shoe, but for casual wear, it's fine. The insole is basic. The weight is standard for an AJ1. The "biggest" advantage is its versatility & iconic status. Downside? The red rubs off on the white collar a bit (part of the design), and some may not like that. For $180, I wish the materials felt a "touch" more premium, but the concept sells it. Bottom line from my perspective: This is a "top-tier" retro release. It honors the past while doing something "new". Worth it at retail? 100%. Worth it at resale? That depends on how much you value the "concept &" the colorway. For me, as a fan of the Jordan 1 and its history, the "Lost and Found" is a definitive release. It’s not perfect for "everyday" comfort, but for style and story? It’s a win. My final take? For me, it’s a definitive cop. The execution is brilliant. It honors the past while feeling fresh. Yes, it's a $180 retro basketball shoe, but the presentation and story elevate it. Would I ball in them? No way. But for rocking with jeans or shorts? An absolute staple. It earns its place in the rotation. Alright, let's unbox these Air Jordan 1 Lost and Founds! First impression? The box and the special paper are a cool throwback. The shoe itself... wow. That cracked leather and the aged look? It’s not a flaw—it's the whole story. For $180, they absolutely nailed the '80s Chicago vibe. Touching them, the materials feel premium. This isn't your standard retro; it’s a carefully crafted piece of history. A strong, strong start right out of the box.
