I went with my normal size, and the fit is perfect – no heel slip. Compared to something like a Dunk Low, the toe box feels a bit more structured. The big pro is the versatility; they go with everything. The potential con is the footbed: it's pretty basic. I often swap in a more supportive insole for all-day comfort. Check out this "Jordan 1 Low" 'Reverse Bred' colorway. Flipping the classic 'Bred' colors is a smart move. At $130 USD, it's a fair ask. Initial on-foot: lockdown is good, but the insole is basic. The red toe-box against the black upper looks sharp and honors the Jordan series legacy perfectly. Main advantage? It's a familiar look but with a twist. Disadvantage? It's still a firm, flat shoe. Ideal for sneakerheads who appreciate the nod to OG style. Not ideal if comfort is your #1 priority. The major pro here? Timeless style. Whether it's the 'Shadow' or a new colorway, the Air Jordan 1 Low design just works. It's a sneaker you can grab without thinking. Cons? The comfort tech is basically… non-existent. If you need plush cushioning for all-day wear, "look elsewhere". This is for style, pure and simple. Here's my real take: the "Jordan 1 Low" is the "everyday" version of the classic. I'm wearing the 'Shadow' pair, and the craftsmanship is on point... as usual. On foot, they're low-maintenance and easy to get on and off. Compared to chunky sneakers, they're super lightweight. Pro: Ultimate wearability. Con? They're "everywhere" now, so don't expect exclusivity. I'd recommend these to anyone wanting a first Jordan or a reliable beater shoe. Not for hype-seekers.
