Opening the box, that color "pops"! It's a beautiful, simple two-tone look. As a classic "air jordan 1 retro", the silhouette is perfect. On foot, the fit is true, but that flat, firm midsole? Yeah, it's not for everyone—especially if you're coming from something like an AJ11. Love it for photos and casual fits, but I wouldn't recommend it for actual court play or long walks. A style piece, through and through. Okay, so here's the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG in 'Obsidian'. Unboxing thoughts? The white leather is smooth, and that university blue hits perfectly—such a clean summer vibe. On feet, the break-in is real, folks. Initial steps are a bit rigid, but the lockdown is fantastic. This colorway looks incredible in natural light, way better than in stock photos. Compared to a Jordan 1 Mid, the quality here feels a step up. Pro: Extremely versatile and well-made. Con: That break-in period can be tough. Perfect for anyone building a versatile sneaker rotation. Not ideal if you need a shoe that's comfortable right out of the box. On feet, walking around? They look even better. The high-top shape is so flattering. Comparing it to a newer Jordan, like an AJ37, it's night and day in terms of tech - but for pure style, the "Air Jordan 1 Retro" wins every time. The pros? Unbeatable looks, incredible versatility for outfits. The cons? Your feet might complain after a long day. Classic ‘Black Toe’ Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG—the legend itself! The $180 price tag feels justified for this icon. Unboxing is pure nostalgia. The red, black, and white is just perfect. On foot, it’s the blueprint: snug heel, firm sole. Visually, it’s probably the most balanced AJ1 ever made. Pro: It’s history you can wear; the resale value on these is usually strong. 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.
