Paying retail (around $180 USD) for a classic OG colorway like 'Shadow' or 'Bred' is justifiable. The quality is there, and you're getting a piece of history. Would I pay huge resale? Probably not. The value is in wearing them, not just holding them. My advice? If you love the "Air Jordan 1" silhouette, grab an OG pair at retail and actually enjoy them. Noticeable downside: they can feel heavy compared to today's trainers. And that flat footbed? Not for everyone. But stepping back and looking at them on foot... man, they just have that magic. The profile is so recognizable. It's a shoe that commands attention, for better or worse. Alright, so first impressions of this "air jordan 1 retro high og" in the ‘Varsity Red’ colorway are... classic. I mean, it’s "the" silhouette that started it all for the Jordan line. The leather feels decent for a retro, and seeing that OG Nike Air tongue tag? That’s a huge win. It just looks iconic straight out of the box, no question. Wearing these, you understand the hype. The silhouette is "so" clean from every angle. However, I have to mention the break-in time—the leather needs a few wears to soften up. It's a trade-off for that classic structure. If you're new to Jordans, maybe start with a more comfortable model. But for OG purists? This 'Varsity Red' is essential.
