And that firm midsole cushioning I mentioned might disappoint if you're used to React or Boost. Also, the toe box can crease noticeably. If you're super fussy about keeping shoes pristine, that's something to consider. Who might want to skip it? If you prioritize all-day, max comfort above everything else, look at newer models. Also, if you're on a tight budget, $210 is a real investment. And if you already have multiple black-based Jordans, maybe the value isn't there for "you". It's about your personal rotation. On feet, the 'Bred' colorway is just unbeatable. The way the black nubuck contrasts with the fire red accents and that grey midsole... it's a head-turner. In natural light, the materials really pop. This is one of those sneakers that looks even better on foot than in the box, in my honest opinion. Major pros? The style is unbeatable—it's a legendary colorway. Durability seems high with the nubuck and plastic wings. It's also incredibly versatile for outfits. You're paying for the history and the look with this $210 USD Jordan release. It's a piece of sneaker culture you can wear.
