If you love bold color – this isn't it. Also, the ankle collar can be stiff initially. It breaks in, but the first few wears require some patience. It’s a classic design with classic break-in quirks. A potential con? The comfort, or lack thereof, for some. If you're used to super soft, modern sneakers, the firm ride of the "black Air Jordan 1" might be a dealbreaker. It's not a "all-day walking" shoe for everyone. Also, that stiff leather needs a few wears to truly mold to your foot. Now, the potential downside? The comfort. Let's be real - the Air Jordan 1 isn't known for a plush ride. If you're used to ultra-boost or modern running shoes, these will feel like bricks initially. They need a break-in period. Also, the all-black colorway can show dust and light scuffs more than you'd think. It's not for everyone, especially if all-day comfort is your top priority. From a design standpoint, this "Black Jordan 1" is flawless in its simplicity. No crazy colors, just pure, wearable design. The leather creases in a way that adds character. It’s a shoe that actually looks better with some wear! Compared to the patent leather versions, this is much more low-key and daily-driver friendly.
