The textures are cool in-hand, but durability...? Only time will tell. The "air jordan 1 low" platform is proven, though. It’s a flat, stable base. A major "pro" is the sheer number of colorways – there's literally one for every taste in the Jordan series. Who is this for? Listen: if you're new to the Jordan brand and want one pair that does it all, get a "air jordan 1 low". Seriously. For about $130, you get a piece of history that's easy to wear. It's for the person who values style over max comfort tech. It's also perfect as a "beater" pair of nice shoes - something you can wear often without worrying too much. That's a huge plus in my book. You guys asked for my thoughts on the new "Air Jordan 1 Low" "Elephant Print." Honestly? The materials are... "interesting". The faux print feels a bit plasticky. On-feet comfort is standard AJ1 Low fare—nothing plush, but definitely wearable. It's a statement piece. Love it or hate it... it'll definitely turn heads. Not for the minimalist sneakerhead, that's for sure. Alright, so I just got this pair of "Air Jordan 1 Lows" in the 'Black Toe' colorway. First impression out of the box? Man, the leather feels pretty decent for the price - we're talking about $110 USD here. It's that classic, clean silhouette, you know? It's instantly recognizable as a "Jordan" classic, but in a low-top form. Super easy to just grab and go.
