The stiff collar "can" rub against your ankle at first - it's a common gripe. If you need plush, cloud-like comfort, look elsewhere. This shoe is about form "over" function in that department. It's a trade-off you need to be aware of. I've worn these for a full day now. Visually? They pop. The 'University Blue' on this pair is "so clean" in person. The low-cut design – honestly – makes them way more versatile than the highs for everyday. You can rock them with shorts no problem. That's a huge win for the "Air Jordan 1 Low", especially in the summer. Unboxing this "Shadow" colorway... "wow", the materials actually feel a step up! The durabuck is nice. On foot, the "Air Jordan 1 Low" fits me perfectly TTS. The advantage here is the "insane" color blocking - it's so easy to style. Downside? The outsole is thin. I wouldn't hoop in these seriously. But for casual wear and style points? It's a 10/10 from me. Alright, let's talk about this new "Air Jordan 1 Low" 'Shadow' release. My first impression? The materials feel a step up from some GR lows – the grey suede is nice! Sliding them on, the break-in period is real; they're a bit rigid initially. Visually, this low-top version of a classic high colorway is "fire" for a minimalist wardrobe. It’s a great, understated piece from the Jordan series. Downside? That classic Jordan 1 comfort – or lack thereof – is present. Worth the $120 if you love the palette. Skip if you need plush cushioning.
