But on the resell market for crazy prices? That's a personal call. The value is in wearing it, not just holding it. The quality on these recent OG releases has been pretty consistent, which is a plus. My final take? The "Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG" is a must-have "concept". But manage your expectations. Don't buy it for cloud-like comfort. Buy it for that unmatched silhouette, for the color story (like this "Stage Haze" pair), for the legacy. Slip them on, appreciate the history, and style them with confidence. Just maybe bring a comfy pair to change into later! Final thoughts. The "air jordan 1 retro high og" isn't trying to be the comfiest or most techy shoe. It’s a style icon. It looks incredible on foot, in photos — everywhere. The build quality (generally) holds up. If you want a sneaker with a story, with a look that never goes out of style, this is it. A true cornerstone of any collection. Comparing it to other 1s, like a Mid or a Low, the High OG just has that presence. The ankle collar, the way it laces up... it's the definitive version. Is it worth the $180? For this specific colorway, yeah. You're paying for that heritage. But try it on first if you can—the fit can be tricky.
