Honestly, the cushioning is firm; if you're used to modern, pillowy sneakers, this might feel a bit "jarring" at first. But for pure style? It's unbeatable. 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. Alright, guys, let's get into these "Air Jordan 1 Red"s.
