Try a pair on if you can. Sizing is mostly true-to-size, but the width can be snug. The "Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG" isn't for wide feet without maybe going up half a size. And remember, the collar will dig into your ankle at first – thick socks are your friend. It gets better, I promise. But the initial wear can be... intense. Unboxing this pair, you immediately feel the history. The construction is solid, & that high-top silhouette is just timeless. For $180 USD, you're paying for that legacy. On foot, the ankle support is great, but the break-in period is real—it's a stiff shoe initially. Compared to newer J's, it's less about tech & more about pure style. Who should "avoid" it? If you're on your feet all day and need maximum comfort – look elsewhere. Also, if you dislike breaking shoes in, be warned. The stiff leather and flat feel aren't for everyone. There are more comfortable "Jordan series" models. But for a style piece, for a fashion statement, the "air jordan 1 retro high og" remains king of the hill. It's about priorities. On foot now. Honestly, the comfort is… fine? Don't expect modern cushioning. The "air jordan 1 retro high og" feels sturdy – like a classic basketball shoe (because it is!). The ankle support is great, but the sole is firm. It's not uncomfortable, just… honest. If you want a pillow for your foot, look at a Jordan 13 or something. This is about style and heritage, pure and simple.
