The fit is true to size for me. Immediate thoughts? They're "stiff" - like, really stiff. The ankle collar needs to break in. Cushioning? Don't expect Boost or React. It's a firm, classic ride. But that "Air Jordan Retro 1" lockdown is fantastic. You feel secure, just not exactly "plush" from the first wear. Who should buy the Air Jordan Retro 1? Honestly, if you're new to sneakers & want one iconic pair to start, this is it. It's for the style-focused person who values history & a clean aesthetic. This 'Royal Blue' pair is a perfect example – timeless. It's also great if you have a narrower foot, as the fit can be snug. The Jordan series literally started here, so it's a foundational piece. Let's talk looks on-camera. The shape on this "Air Jordan 1 Retro" is "perfect". That high-top profile is iconic. I'm wearing them with some jeans, and they just pop. The leather on this specific release is decent – not buttery premium, but it'll crease nicely. For style points alone, this is a top-tier sneaker in the Jordan series. It's a flex, plain and simple. Now, a potential con for some: the fit can be "narrow". If you have wider feet, you might need to go up a half-size. Also, that classic toe box creases... a lot. It's part of the charm for me, but if you're a "keep-my-kicks-pristine" person, that might bug you. The "Air Jordan Retro 1" is meant to be worn and aged, in my opinion.
