Air jordan 1 red : Comparing it to my other Jordans [6e68e96e]

.. the comfort level is similar to most retro 1s. It's definitely firmer than, say, a Jordan 3 or 4 with their Air units. But there's something about the simplicity of the AJ1. This red version stands out in my rotation more than a neutral grey pair. It fills a specific "bold classic" slot that I didn't have before. Conversely, who should maybe skip it? If comfort is your #1 priority – like, you walk miles daily – there are better, more cushioned Jordans out there. Also, if your wardrobe is all neutrals, this might be hard to style frequently. It's a specialty piece, not an everyday beater – for some people, that's not ideal. Let's talk cons, because I gotta keep it real. The sole is flat and firm. If you're used to Zoom Air or Boost, you'll be disappointed. This is a 1985 design, after all! It's for style, not performance basketball or all-day walking. So, who's it for? Sneakerheads and style-first people. Who should skip it? Folks needing max comfort. On-feet comfort check: it's stiff at first, as expected. You need a brief break-in period. Compared to a Jordan 3 or 4, there's no Air unit in the heel—so, yeah, it's less cushioned. But that's the classic AJ1 experience. The "Air Jordan 1 Red" is about style and heritage, not tech.
