On this ‘Court Purple’ pair, the leather is decent! It’s not buttery premium, but it’s solid and should age nicely. The paint on the midsole can chip though, that's a common flaw. Just being real with you. It’s part of the deal with a lot of retros, honestly. Who should skip it? If your priority is all-day, walk-all-over-the-city comfort, look elsewhere. Also, if you have particularly wide feet, the narrow fit might be an issue. And if you're on a tight budget, there are more comfortable daily drivers for less money. The "air jordan 1 retro high og" is a style & culture purchase first, a comfort shoe second. You have to want that specific vibe. Final thoughts on the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG. It's the blueprint. Every time I unbox one, I'm reminded why it's a classic. The high-top design, the swoosh—it's all iconic. On foot, it's more about attitude than comfort. Pros: Timeless style, durable, unmatched heritage. Cons: Stiff out of the box, not performance-driven. Who is it for? Anyone who appreciates sneaker history. Who should skip it? Those purely seeking modern comfort tech. At ~$180, you're buying an icon. Check out this latest pickup: the "Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG 'Stage Haze'". Unboxing, I love the mix of white, grey, and that hit of red. It’s a clean, "summery" look. On foot, the fit is snug—I’d say maybe "half-size up" if you have wider feet. The silhouette is just "untouchable" for streetwear. For the "$180 USD" price tag, you're paying for the legacy and look. It’s a great entry into the Jordan 1 world. However, if you’re coming from ultra-comfy runners, the break-in period might feel a bit stiff.
