This 'Bordeaux' colorway has such rich, deep tones. On foot, the high-top provides great lockdown, which I love. Compared to a Dunk High, the AJ1 has a narrower profile and often better materials. Is it worth the retail price? For this quality and iconic status in the Jordan series, I say yes. Just don't expect a revolution in foot comfort. The materials on this specific ‘University Blue’ pair are pretty nice! The white leather panels are smooth, and the suede-like blue feels premium. Unboxing a fresh pair of the "air jordan 1 retro high og" is always a joy. The construction feels solid—no glue stains I can see. For the Jordan series, this retro represents a high-quality release, especially at this price point. On foot now, and here’s the real talk. The "Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG" is "not" a comfort shoe. The cushioning is minimal – you feel the court. The ankle collar is stiff at first, but the leather will break in. It’s a heavy, substantial feel, which I actually like for that 'grounded' sensation. If you want plush comfort, look at a Jordan 13 or a modern runner. This is about style and support. Unboxing this "Lost & Found" version – wow. The aged details are so cool. This air jordan 1 retro high og feels special. On foot, it's the same familiar, somewhat rigid feel. The pros? Unmatched history, incredible story-telling, and a conversation starter. The cons? The price (over $200) and the fact it's still a 1985-designed shoe. It's for the enthusiast who appreciates the narrative, not someone seeking modern comfort.
