First impression? The box, the red/white/black colorway—it's iconic for a reason. On foot, the ankle collar needs a bit of break-in, but the leather quality on this retro is solid. Compared to a modern Jordan, like a 36, the tech is obviously dated—it's a firm, flat ride. But that's the point. If you want history on your feet and a timeless look, this is it. If you need cushioning for all-day comfort, maybe look elsewhere. On feet, these look even better. The high-top shape just does something for your whole fit—it's legendary. I’ve worn other Jordans, but the "OG 1" has this unbeatable, clean profile. The leather will crease, that's a fact. But honestly? On camera and in person, the creases add character to this Jordan series staple. It’s a vibe. Let's talk pros and cons. Pros: Unbeatable style. The "OG" high-top is iconic for a reason. Build quality is usually consistent. It's a versatile sneaker that works with tons of fits. Cons, like I said: comfort isn't one of them. It's a flat, firm ride. Also, the creasing... the leather will crease, no way around it. If you're a comfort-first person, this classic "Air Jordan 1" might disappoint you on foot. Final take: worth it? For me, yes. The "Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG" is like a great pair of jeans – it's not the most comfortable thing at first, but it molds to you and always looks right. It connects you to the roots of the Jordan series. Just know what you're buying: a legend, not a cloud.
