Also, if you're after the most "authentic" Jordan 1 experience, some purists will always argue for the High top version. The Air Jordan 1 Low is a lifestyle shoe first, performance second (or let's be real, not at all). First impression out of the box? The materials on this Air Jordan 1 Low pair are decent – not amazing, but definitely good for the price point. On foot, they feel snug and secure; the fit is classic Jordan 1. Visually, this low-top version is a bit more understated than the highs, which I actually prefer for daily rotation. A clear pro is the sheer number of colorways available in this model. A potential con is the lack of arch support for some foot types. For about $100 USD in the Jordan series, it's a no-brainer if you want a versatile beater. Not for folks wanting plush, modern comfort, though. Sliding these 'Air Jordan 1 Lows' on... immediate classic comfort. The break-in is minimal, which is a huge plus. Compared to a high-top, obviously, you lose some ankle lock, but the weight is nice and light for all-day wear. If you're looking for a super-cushioned 'Jordan' experience, though? This isn't it – the midsole is firm. But for style and casual wear, it's a winner. Unboxing this new "Atmosphere" grey colorway – wow, the materials feel a step up! Soft suede hits on this "Air Jordan 1 Low" are a nice touch. First impression? Very premium for the price, and the color is super easy to match.
