My pair creased naturally, which I think adds character. The outsole grip is decent for casual use. At ~$130, it sits in a sweet spot. It's ideal for newcomers to the Jordan series or veterans rounding out a collection. Not ideal if you hate any stiffness in your shoes initially. Now, the not-so-great part? The tech — or lack of it. Let's be real, the cushioning is basically nonexistent. It's a firm, flat ride. If you're used to modern, bouncy sneakers, you'll feel the difference immediately. This shoe is about style and heritage first, comfort second. Just keep that in mind before you cop. Putting these on... yeah, the comfort is exactly what you'd expect from an OG AJ1 Low. It's a firm, board-like feel – don't come here looking for Boost or React! The break-in period is real, but after a few wears, they mold to your foot nicely. The padding around the collar is a nice touch, but overall, it's about style over extreme comfort. If you prioritize a plush ride, maybe look elsewhere. But for that classic court look? Unbeatable. Final verdict? For me, it's a definite cop. The "Air Jordan 1 Low OG" earns its keep through pure, uncomplicated style. At around $120 USD, it's a relatively accessible entry into iconic Jordan design. Just go in with the right expectations – you're buying a classic, not a comfort revolution. I'm keeping these on heavy rotation.
