0'. Opening the box, the grey and black combo is so subtle yet powerful—a perfect everyday shoe. Price was about $170. On foot, the fit is perfect for me (I went TTS), and the lockdown is good. But I have to be honest: after wearing Zoom Air sneakers all day, putting these on feels... basic. There's not much going on underfoot. The design is flawless, a true staple in the "Jordan" lineage. Pro? Unbeatable, wearable design. Con? You're paying for the name and silhouette, not groundbreaking comfort. I'd say these are perfect for someone building a versatile rotation. If comfort is your #1 priority, you might be disappointed. Alright, so I just got the "Air Jordan 1 Retro" 'Court Purple' in hand. First impressions? That classic silhouette is just "undeniable". The leather feels decent—not amazing, but solid for the price point (~$170). Unboxing it, the color combo really pops against the black swoosh. It's a statement piece for sure, straight out of the box. After wearing them for a bit, I appreciate the break-in process. They do get more comfortable! The leather softens up, molding to your foot. Is it worth the ~$180 USD? For a sneakerhead wanting a classic, yes. For someone seeking a performance running shoe feel? Absolutely not. It's all about understanding what you're buying here. Last one: the classic 'Black Toe' "air jordan 1 retro". Unboxing it is like a history lesson. The leather is fine, nothing premium, but the color blocking is legendary. On foot, it's the same familiar, somewhat unforgiving fit. It looks incredible on camera and in person, though. Compared to a chunkier sneaker trend, it's sleek. The main pro is its status as a blueprint. The con is the lack of modern comfort. Must-have for purists, easy pass for comfort seekers. That's my final verdict.
