Comfort is a 6/10 until broken in. For ~$180, it's a justified purchase for most. It’s not for everyone, but if you appreciate sneaker history and timeless style, this is essential. Cop it. On foot now. Let's be real—the "Air Jordan 1 Retro High" is not a modern comfort shoe. It's firm, a bit heavy, and the ankle collar needs some break-in time. The lockdown is secure, though, which is great. Comparing it to, say, a Jordan 13? Totally different world. This is about style and that classic feel. Pro: timeless look. Con: don't expect cloud-like cushioning. If you prioritize comfort first, this might not be for you. Conversely, who should maybe skip it? If you're on your feet all day and need supreme comfort, this isn't your daily driver. Also, if you have wider feet, the narrow toe box can be a problem — consider going up half a size. And if you're new to sneakers and just want something comfy and cheap, there are better, more modern options out there. Yo, what's up everyone? Just got these in. It's the "air jordan 1 retro high" in the 'University Blue'. Man, the suede feels nice in hand! On foot, they're... well, they're AJ1s. You know what you're getting: a flat, firm ride. The ankle support is unreal, though! Compared to a Dunk? Way more structured. Honestly, love 'em for the style, but if you're on your feet all day... maybe think twice. A must for collectors, rough for long walks.
