It's more of a casual, everyday option. Versus other Jordan models with more tech? There's no contest - this is about heritage, not performance. For $100, you're paying for that iconic style. Alright, so I just got this pair of the "Air Jordan 1 Low" in the "Black Toe" colorway - a "classic", right? First impression out of the box is "solid". The leather feels decent for the $110 price point, and that iconic silhouette is "clean". It's that timeless Jordan series look, just in a low-top version. I'm excited to get these on feet. The 'Court Purple' Air Jordan 1 Low is in the house. This is a straightforward, great-looking shoe. The purple pops against the black. On foot, they feel secure & lightweight. It's a classic basketball silhouette, so cushioning is minimal – that's the trade-off. Worth the $115? For the style, yes. For all-day comfort? Probably not. Let's talk about the not-so-great stuff, because no shoe is perfect, right? The main con for some people will be the cushioning. It's firm – not "uncomfortable," but you feel the ground. If you're used to React or Boost, this will feel different (and maybe a bit stiff). Also, some colorways use smoother leather that can crease easily. It's a natural look, but if you're super picky about that... just a heads-up!
