$180 for this statement? Sure. The leather has a weird plastic-y feel, though. On feet, it’s a standard AJ1 experience: secure, stiff. In sunlight, it literally shines. Pro: Ultimate attention-grabber for a bold outfit. Con: The material quality feels a bit cheap for the price. I’d only recommend this to a style risk-taker who loves color. If you prefer subtle sneakers, this is absolutely not for you. Final verdict from me? The "air jordan 1 retro" is a must-have "if" you appreciate sneaker history and timeless design. It's for the collector, the casual wearer, the style fan. It's not for the comfort-first buyer or the serious baller (on modern courts). For around $180, you're buying an icon, not a tech marvel. And that's okay. First impressions of this Air Jordan 1 Retro 'Bred Patent'? The glossy finish is a bold choice, for sure. On feet, it's the same familiar fit — supportive, a bit heavy — but that shiny leather creases in a unique way. Compared to a standard leather Jordan 1, it's definitely more attention-grabbing. Major pro? Incredible visual pop on camera. Potential con? The patent material isn't for purists. At ~$200, I'd recommend it if you want to stand out. Skip it if you prefer muted classics. So, I just got these in. The "Air Jordan 1 Retro" 'Mid' 'Chicago Black Toe'. Even as a Mid, the shape is great. For $135, it's a more accessible entry into the silhouette. On foot, they feel the same as the Highs: stylish but firm. The ankle support is less, which some might prefer. They look sharp with jeans or shorts. Honestly, the main advantage is the price point and classic color-blocking. Disadvantage? Same old, non-supportive footbed. A good option for a budget-conscious fan.
