It looks amazing on shelf and on foot. At $225, it's an investment, but for a shoe you'll wear for years? Worth it. Just know it's not the plushest ride. If you appreciate design history and clean style, you won't be disappointed. Who might want to skip these? If you're all about maximum comfort and technical cushioning above all else, look elsewhere. Also, if you love bold, colorful sneakers that pop, the subdued grey palette here might feel a bit too plain for your taste. It's a mature colorway—and that's either a pro or a con depending on your style. Who should maybe pass? If you prioritize ultimate comfort above all else, there are more modern options. If you're on a tight budget, that $225 USD is a serious chunk. And if you dislike the inevitable "aging" of patent leather, this isn't your shoe. It's a commitment to a specific look and feel that not everyone will vibe with. A real quick downside, though. That shiny patent leather? It's a scratch magnet. You gotta be a little careful. Also, the fit can be snug. If you have wide feet, maybe consider going up half a size. But overall, for the $225 price point in the Jordan series, you're getting a piece of sneaker history that's also super wearable.
