Not great, not terrible. You feel the ground, but the support is there. The "pro" is the timeless style you get with this "Air Jordan 1". The "con" is the dated cushioning. It's a trade-off I'm willing to make for "this" look. Would I recommend it? Absolutely, but go in with the right expectations. Don't expect Boost or ZoomX. Expect iconic style and solid construction. Now, the real talk. The potential con? The comfort – or lack thereof, honestly. If you're used to modern, plush sneakers, the Black Air Jordan 1 will feel "stiff". The flat footbed and minimal cushioning aren't for long days of walking. It's a style-first, comfort-second shoe. Just being totally honest with you guys. Let's talk fit. TTS for me. The leather needs a few wears to soften up around the ankle. The flat sole isn't doing my arches any favors on long walks — that's the main drawback. But, man, putting this black air jordan 1 on completes an outfit. It's a shoe with a purpose: to look cool. It achieves that 100%. Just manage your comfort expectations versus modern sneakers. Now, the "cons" – the potential dealbreakers. The comfort is "not" modern. If you're used to React or Boost, this will feel like a brick. Also, the all-black design can look a bit... harsh or "uniform" to some. It lacks the playful personality of other "Jordan 1s". It’s definitely not for everyone, especially if you prioritize foot-feel over form.
