This shade of blue goes with "so much"—jeans, shorts, you name it. It’s a statement sneaker that isn't too loud. The con? That price tag is creeping up. $180 is steep for a non-collab Jordan 1, even with the nicer materials. My final, personal take? I like them. As a fan of the Jordan 1 High OG, this is a great version of a classic. The execution is clean, the color is iconic, and they'll be easy to style. Would I pay resell? No. But for retail ($180), if you love the look and don't mind the classic (read: firm) AJ1 feel, I think they're a solid pick-up for your collection. A potential downside for some? The classic AJ1 fit can be narrow. I went true to size, and it's snug – it'll break in. But if you have wider feet, maybe consider that. The advantage? That snug fit gives a secure, locked-down feeling. The UNC colorway is just so versatile for casual wear. Here's a potential con, though: the price. At $180 USD, you're paying for that premium material upgrade. If you just want the UNC color story and don't care about leather quality, you might look for older versions? But for me, this "Reimagined" build justifies the cost. It feels like a shoe that will last and age beautifully. Compared to my other Jordan 1s, this one immediately feels more... substantial.
