The flat, firm midsole isn't for long walks. Also, if you prefer "low-top" sneakers, the high-top collar might feel restrictive. But for "style" and "heritage", it's a 10/10. It’s a sneaker you buy for the "look" and the "feel", not for tech. Comparing it to other Jordans... versus a Jordan 1 Low? The high-top feel is more substantial, more "retro-basketball". Versus something like a Jordan 4 or 5? It's definitely lighter and less bulky on foot. The "air jordan 1 red" is about that pure, uncomplicated silhouette. It's the foundation of the whole Jordan series, and you feel that history when you hold it. If you’re new to the Jordan series and want a classic, this is a great starting point. The price point? It's reasonable for what you get. However... if you prioritize maximum comfort above all else? This might not be your daily driver. It’s more about style and heritage than cutting-edge tech. Just my two cents! On feet, the "air jordan 1 red" really pops. It’s a statement piece for sure. The high-top collar gives that classic basketball look and feels supportive around the ankle. In natural light, that red just shines. Compared to some other Jordan 1s I own, this one feels a bit more versatile than, say, a super loud collab. It’s a staple colorway that works with so much in your closet.
