However, if you have "very" wide feet, the break-in might be a bit snug. Compared to a Jordan 1 High, it's less restrictive around the ankle. A great "starter" Jordan for sure. Fresh pair of "Air Jordan 1 Lows" on deck. This colorway is a simple 'Black & White'. Opening it up, the construction looks good – no major flaws. The immediate on-foot feel is familiar: secure, no-slip fit. The weight is negligible, which is nice. Styling-wise, you can't go wrong with a black and white shoe; it's a wardrobe staple. Next to an AJ1 Mid, the difference is purely in height and sometimes materials. The advantage here is the classic, low-key style. The downside? That firm, traditional basketball shoe feel.
