Also, if you already have multiple black sneakers, this might feel redundant. And for new sneakerheads? It's a perfect "first" AJ1, but know what you're getting into: a stylish, somewhat stiff shoe. It's an investment in a look, not a comfort revolution. Major pro? Unmatched versatility. You can wear this shoe with 90% of your wardrobe, and it always looks sharp. The all-black colorway also hides creases and scuffs way better than lighter pairs. For a $180 sneaker you plan to wear a lot, that's a practical advantage you'll come to appreciate, trust me. Who should maybe skip it? If you're looking for the most comfortable shoe straight out of the box, look elsewhere. Also, if you prefer bold color and flashy designs, this all-black Air Jordan 1 might feel too plain or basic for you. It's a subtle flex. And for serious performance basketball? Definitely not - that's not what this 1985 design is for anymore. Know your use case. Who's this for? Honestly, for "anyone" building a versatile sneaker collection. It's a perfect first Jordan 1. Also great for minimalists who love a monochrome look. The "black air jordan 1" is a workhorse. You can dress it up or down, and it never feels out of place. A true wardrobe essential, in my book.
