The obvious con is the comfort, or lack of "modern" comfort. The insole is thin, the midsole is firm. If you're on your feet all day, you "might" want more support. Also, some colorways use stiffer leather that needs a break-in period. It's not a performance shoe, so manage those expectations with this Jordan 1 model. Comparing it to other "Jordan" models? The "Air Jordan 1 Low" is the "accessible" icon. It lacks the premium materials & padded collar of some High OG versions, sure. But for "$110-$130", you're getting that legendary look in a more casual, "breathable" package. It's less statement-making than a High, more of an everyday staple. A great "entry point" into the "Jordan" series, honestly. Just got these in the mail. It's the "Air Jordan 1 Low" "Elephant Print" - a fun take on a classic. The print quality is _actually_ pretty good in-hand. Putting them on... wow, the visual impact is strong. They're a statement piece. Comfort-wise, it's the standard AJ1 Low experience: break-in needed. Compared to a plain pair, these have way more personality. Great for sneakerheads wanting something different. Not so great if you prefer subtle styles. For $130, I think they're a cool pickup for the collection. Final thoughts on a staple. The "Air Jordan 1 Low" in "Black White" is a workhorse. Unboxing is straightforward - you know what you're getting. On foot, they're comfortable "enough" for casual wear. The design is 10/10 for style. Compared to newer "Jordan" models, tech is basic. Pro: unmatched versatility and heritage. Con: basic comfort tech. At ~$110, it's a foundational sneaker for your rotation. I recommend it to almost anyone interested in sneaker culture. Don't recommend it as your only gym or running shoe.
