Con: Everyone has them, so originality is low. This is a must for any serious Jordan enthusiast. If you dislike "hype" or common sneakers, you might want something more unique. On foot, the silhouette is just flawless. That's the main appeal. However, that high-top can feel restrictive if you have wider feet – just something to consider. If you prioritize aesthetics and a classic vibe over breakthrough tech, the AJ1 retro is your shoe. Unboxing the 'Pine Green' pair, and the leather has a nice tumbled look. Lacing up this "air jordan 1 retro", the arch support is noticeable (for better or worse). In terms of look, it's a clean, classic block color. Love it for that. Price is standard for the line. The main advantage is its iconic design language. The disadvantage? It can feel a bit "clunky" until broken in. Ideal for style enthusiasts; not ideal for performance athletes or comfort-seekers.
