Air jordan 1 low : Who should maybe skip it? If you need arch support or have wider feet, be cautious—the fit can be narrow [j416papy]

And hardcore performance basketball players? Obviously, this isn't for on-court use anymore. It's a lifestyle shoe through and through. Don't buy it for the tech; buy it for the heritage and the look. Now, the not-so-great stuff. 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. 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. Slip these "Air Jordan 1 Low" kicks on... initial feel? They're snug. The ankle collar sits "low"—obviously—so support is "minimal". But for casual wear? Perfectly comfy. The midsole is firm, no Zoom or anything fancy. It's that classic AJ1 feel, just in a lighter, more "breezy" low-top package. A straight-to-the-point sneaker.
