Visually, this low-top version of a classic high colorway is "fire" for a minimalist wardrobe. It’s a great, understated piece from the Jordan series. Downside? That classic Jordan 1 comfort – or lack thereof – is present. Worth the $120 if you love the palette. Skip if you need plush cushioning. Let's talk about these "air jordan 1 low" 'Shadow's.
