I went with a basic 'Black/White' colorway. First thing I noticed on foot? They’re incredibly light, which is a nice change from some bulkier Jordans. The look on-camera is clean – that low-top profile works really well. Compared to an AJ1 Mid, the shape feels a bit sleeker. Pro: ultimate everyday wearability. Con: the outsole is pretty flat, so not the best for all-day standing. It's a perfect shoe for casual outings, but maybe not for your 12-hour work shift. Who is this for? Listen: if you're new to the Jordan brand and want one pair that does it all, get a "air jordan 1 low". Seriously. For about $130, you get a piece of history that's easy to wear. It's for the person who values style over max comfort tech. It's also perfect as a "beater" pair of nice shoes - something you can wear often without worrying too much. That's a huge plus in my book. The design is flawless, honestly. That low-cut silhouette works for so many people. It’s less bulky than the high-top version. My favorite thing about the "Air Jordan 1 Low"? How easy it is to wear. Slide in and go. The downside? Lack of support if you’re actually active. But c’mon, we’re not hooping in these (anymore). It’s a fashion piece now, and a brilliant one. Now, the potential con – the comfort, or lack thereof, for some. If you're used to modern, engineered knit uppers and super-soft midsoles, the "Air Jordan 1 Low" might feel stiff and unforgiving. It's a flat, firm ride. It's not a performance shoe or a all-day-walking shoe for everyone. You're buying it for the look and legacy, first and foremost.
