It's a bit roomier in the toebox compared to recent Jordan 1s. If you like a super snug, locked-down feel, you "might" want to consider sizing down half a size. Just something to keep in mind before you cop. Comparing it to the 2015 UNC release, this "Reimagined" version is a clear upgrade in materials. The old one felt more plasticky. This one has depth. Is it worth the current resale price? For me, personally? At retail, absolutely. But if you’re paying a huge mark-up, maybe consider if that vintage look is a must-have for you. Alright, so, we got the Air Jordan 1 'UNC Reimagined' here. Straight out the box, that color just hits you — it’s that perfect Carolina blue, no doubt. This one’s part of the Reimagined series, meaning you get the older shape & leather that’s aged out the box. I gotta say, the quality feels really solid for a $180 USD Jordan 1. On foot, it's what you expect: a bit stiff at first, but true to size. On feet, the fit is TTS for me. The comfort? It's still a Jordan 1, so don't expect modern cushioning—it's firm. But the padded collar feels great around the ankle. The "air jordan 1 unc reimagined" holds its shape perfectly. Honestly, the classic silhouette just works with everything. A major pro is that premium leather; a con is the stiff break-in period for some.
