Super soft leather on the overlays. Sliding my foot in, the padding around the ankle is great. It’s a subtle colorway that looks even better in person than in photos. Compared to brighter Jordans, this is a stealth flex. Big pro: top-tier craftsmanship on this specific release. Possible downside? It's another high-top at around $180, so same old break-in period. Worth it? Yes, for quality seekers. No, if you're tired of the AJ1 high model. In summary: A solid cop for style & heritage. Don't expect modern comfort. The "Air Jordan 1 Retro" earns its place for its look & cultural impact. It's a 10/10 for style, maybe a 6/10 for pure comfort. Know what you're buying, & you won't be disappointed. Just got my hands on the new Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG in this neutral grey. "Unboxing" it, the leather has a nice texture. On foot, honestly, it feels like... a classic Jordan 1. It's supportive but the cushioning? Basic. The beauty is in the design & how it completes a fit. Compared to a Jordan 3 or 4, it's less comfortable but more iconic in profile. A great canvas for outfits. Not for performance, purely for fashion. Alright, let's get these out of the box. First impression? The "Air Jordan 1 Retro" in this ‘University Blue’ colorway is clean. The leather quality feels decent, not super premium but definitely solid for the $180 price tag. The iconic silhouette, you know it, is just timeless. It looks great on foot – a classic high-top profile. However, the comfort isn't modern; it's a flat, firm ride. Great for collectors or style, not for all-day walking, in my honest opinion.
