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! Honest review time: the Air Jordan 1 Low 'Elephant Print' edition. The print adds awesome texture! Construction seems on point. Wearing them, the comfort is… acceptable. Don't expect React or Boost. The real win here is the unique design twist on a classic. It stands out. For $110 USD, you're paying for that design flair. If you're a fan of the print and the Jordan 1 Low shape, it's a no-brainer. Pure comfort seekers might be disappointed, though. Finally, the "Chicago" "Air Jordan 1 Low". The heritage is undeniable. Putting them on gives you that iconic vibe without the height of the OG. The leather is stiff at first but will mold to your foot. Is it worth it? For a classic colorway at a lower price point than the Highs... "absolutely". It's perfect for collectors and casual fans alike. Just don't expect cloud-like comfort. Final thoughts? If you love the AJ1 "silhouette" but find the Highs too hot or restrictive, the "Air Jordan 1 Low" is your answer. It's a "staple". Not the most exciting "performance" shoe, but a "legendary" lifestyle piece. For $110-$130, it's a justifiable purchase for your rotation.
