.. yes, but with a caveat. At retail ($180-ish), a clean colorway of the air jordan 1 retro high og is a solid buy. Paying huge resell? Probably not, unless it's a grail. You're getting a well-made, timeless sneaker. Just know what you're getting: iconic style, not cutting-edge comfort. Manage those expectations, and you'll be happy. Alright, let's get into these "Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG". First off, the box is classic - I always love that. Pulling these "Bred" or "Black Toe" colorways out? The leather feels pretty decent for a GR release. The shape is on point, that iconic "OG" silhouette just doesn't get old. For around "$180 USD", the presentation is solid. You're buying into the history, the look - it's an instant classic in hand, no doubt. On foot – first thing you notice is the support, which is "fantastic". The high-top cut locks your ankle in. But let's be real: the cushioning is "firm" – it's an '85-era tech, after all. Don't expect cloud-like comfort! For me, the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG is about style and stability over plush feel. It's a trade-off you have to accept. Alright, let's get into these. Just unboxed the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG in 'University Blue', and wow, that color really pops in hand. The leather feels "pretty" solid for a GR release. First thing you notice is that classic, "iconic" silhouette—it just never gets old. Throwing these on, the fit is true to size with a snug, supportive wrap around the ankle. It's a stiff break-in, though, no lie. For $180, you're paying for the history and the look. If you want a comfortable all-day shoe? Look elsewhere. But for a style piece? Absolutely iconic.
