It's for someone who values style & heritage over cutting-edge comfort. Great first "Jordan", great beater shoe, great style piece. You really can't go wrong for the price. Now, the not-so-great part: that break-in period. 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. Unboxing this 'Stage Haze' colorway... the materials are "mixed"—some soft, some stiff. The sail midsole "already" looks vintage. It's a cool, "deconstructed" vibe. On feet, the fit is "true" to size for me. They break in fast. Just a "really" wearable shoe that gets better with a little creasing. On the flip side, who should "maybe" skip? If you need ultimate comfort for standing all day – like, you're a server or a nurse – there are better, more cushioned options. Also, hardcore ballers looking for a performance low-top: this isn't it. The traction and support are fine for casual use, but for serious hoops? Look at more modern Jordan lows built for that.
