It’s for someone building a foundational collection. Also, for anyone who loves a high-top that makes a statement. The "Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG" is a "must" if you care about sneaker culture. It’s not just a shoe; it's a piece of the story. 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. Alright, let's unbox these. First impression?
