That's a huge pro. But here's the real talk: the leather can crease pretty easily, and it's not the softest. You gotta be okay with that "lived-in" look. For a sneakerhead who loves beaters, it's perfect. If you're super precious about keeping kicks mint, maybe think twice. It's part of the charm, though! I’ve been wearing these 'University Blue' Air Jordan 1 Lows for a week now. The color? "Chef's kiss" – pops just right. Compared to my AJ1 Highs, the ankle freedom is a game-changer for summer. Big pro: ultimate versatility with shorts or jeans. Con? That stiff outsole needs a short break-in. Still, a great pick-up. Comparing it to other Jordans? The "air jordan 1 low" is the casual, everyday version of its high-top sibling. Less restrictive, lighter on foot. If you love the AJ1 style but hate the bulk around the ankle? This is your pick. The "Chicago" colorway I got just pops. Perfect for that retro-vibe outfit without trying too hard. Just unboxed the Air Jordan 1 Low 'University Blue'. That blue pops against the white leather! Sizing tip: they fit TTS for me. Walking around, the outsole grip is good for daily use. The main advantage of this low-top model is its versatility in outfits – it's less "sporty" than a High. Downside? The toe box creases pretty easily. Still, a great entry into the Jordan series.
