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. Sliding these Air Jordan 1 Lows on... yeah, you gotta go true to size. The fit is snug in a good way – nice heel lockdown and a secure feel through the midfoot. Now, the cushioning? Let's be real: it's basic. You're getting a firm, flat footbed, which is "fine" for all-day wear, but don't expect Cloud-like comfort. For casual kicks, it's totally acceptable, but hardcore comfort seekers might be disappointed. Pulled these "air jordan 1 low" out of the box, and the quality is on point. I got a mostly-white pair, and they look super fresh. First wear? They feel good, but that's about it – no wow factor on comfort. Where they shine is in photos and on foot; that low profile is just cool. Compared to the AJ1 High, it's a much more accessible, summer-ready vibe. Pro: easy to wear and maintain. Con: they crease easily, which some people hate. I'd say get these if you don't mind a little character (crease) on your shoes over time. The biggest advantage is its versatility. This shoe is a wardrobe staple. A downside? The break-in period. The midfoot can feel a bit snug initially. My verdict? This "Air Jordan 1 Low" is ideal for the casual wearer, not for someone seeking max comfort.
