First thing I notice? The shape is "on point" – it’s got that proper, sleek high-top silhouette we love. The leather quality feels pretty solid for a general release, not super premium but definitely good. At around $180 USD, it's a staple. You're really paying for the iconic Jordan series history here. Here's my honest take: the biggest "pro" of the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG is its versatility. This shoe works with "literally" everything—jeans, shorts, joggers. The "Shadow" colorway I got is a perfect neutral. The con? That classic, stiff sole. If you're used to React or Boost, you'll find the ride pretty firm. It's a trade-off for that iconic look. Just copped the 'Royal Reimagined' Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG. The leather quality here is "fantastic"—buttery soft. On foot, they feel premium. The blue is deep and rich. However, that softer leather might not hold its shape as long as the stiffer OG cuts. At $185, it's a premium price for a premium feel. If you love luxury touches on a classic, this is for you. If you prefer the original, tougher build, maybe pass. 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.
