If you hate creasing your sneakers... maybe admire these from afar. They're meant to be worn and lived in. For $180+, you want a performance tool? This ain't it. But for a style icon? It's perfect. Who are these for? If you're a sneakerhead who values history and style over all-day comfort, this is your grail. The "air jordan 1 retro high og" is perfect for short wears, outfits, and just looking cool. But if you need a shoe for all-day walking or you prioritize cushioning... maybe look at a Jordan 13 instead. After a full day in these "air jordan 1 retro high og" 'Volt' joints, my feet are... aware of them. They're not painful, but you "know" you're wearing a retro basketball shoe. The padded collar is great for ankle feel, though. Compared to a Mid cut, the High just feels more complete to me. The pro is the unmatched silhouette. The con is the break-in period. I'd recommend these to anyone building a sneaker rotation, but not as your "only" pair for walking miles. Who is it "not" for? If comfort is your #1 priority, look elsewhere. The "Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG" is not for long days of walking, or if you have super sensitive feet. Also, if you're on a tight budget, there are more comfortable / and affordable options out there. This is an investment in style, not necessarily in all-day comfort.
