It's that classic, slightly stiff "brand new" feel. For $180 USD, you're paying for the heritage & the look, which is honestly the main draw of any OG "Jordan series" release. Just a timeless silhouette. On feet, the 'Heritage' colorway really pops. The "Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG" has this way of looking even better in person than in photos, you know? That high-top profile just gives any casual fit an instant boost. Compared to a Jordan 1 Mid, the OG High has better materials and, in my opinion, a cleaner overall shape. It’s a staple. The downside? They can feel a bit heavy and clunky until you break them in. Now, the cons – because no shoe is perfect. The break-in period can be real; expect some initial stiffness. Also, that high-top can feel restrictive if you're not used to it. And honestly, for its price point, the materials can vary between colorways. Some are buttery soft, others are just okay. It’s something to keep in mind before you cop a pair. The craftsmanship on my pair is pretty good! Stitching is clean, and the leather, while not buttery, has a nice grain. No glue stains or major flaws. For a mass-retro, it's well-made. Holding it, you appreciate the build – it feels substantial, not cheap. That OG high-top shape is just perfect. Every detail, from the Wings logo to the Nike Air tongue tag, feels correct. They nailed the retro spec.
