The main one? That stiff break-in period. The first few wears can be a bit harsh on the heels/ankles. Also, that bright red leather can show creases pretty visibly - if that bothers you, maybe think twice. For $180, I wish the leather was a bit plusher. But hey, it's part of the Jordan 1 character. Compared to a Dunk? The "air jordan 1 red" has a higher ankle collar and feels more structured – it's a bolder statement. The Dunk is a bit more low-profile and can feel slightly roomier. I love both, but the AJ1 has that authoritative, classic basketball silhouette that’s hard to beat for street style. "Wow." On-camera, this shoe looks even better. The "air jordan 1 red" colorblocking is simple but so effective. Opening the box, everything was neat—no glue stains I could see. Wearing them? They're light, but the break-in period is real; the toe box is snug. Major pro: goes with "literally" anything. Con? That flat footbed. For $170+, you're paying for the look, not tech. A must for sneakerheads, tough sell for performance seekers. On foot, the visual impact is undeniable. The red just "pops" against the white and black. This "Air Jordan 1" is a statement piece. I compared it to my older 1s, and the shape here is really nice—sharp toe box, good proportions. A definite win for sneaker photography and street style.
