Just got the "black" Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG in hand. First impression? The all-black colorway is "super" clean and premium. The leather feels nice, maybe not the absolute "top-tier", but the construction is solid. That classic silhouette just never gets old. For $180 USD, it's a classic Jordan look. Who should pass? If supreme all-day comfort is your #1 priority, look at modern runners or basketball shoes with better cushioning. Also, if you already have multiple black-based Jordans... this might feel redundant. It's a classic, but it's not reinventing the wheel—you know? On foot, the fit is true to size for me. The break-in period is real with any Jordan 1, and this pair is no exception. The cushioning is firm—let's be honest, it's not plush. But that's the classic feel. The main "advantage" here? This "black air jordan 1" goes with literally everything in your wardrobe. Instant outfit completer. Now, the not-so-great part. That stiffness I mentioned? It's a thing. If you want a plush, comfortable sneaker right out of the box... this ain't it. You "need" to break these in. Also, at $180, you're paying for the heritage and look—not for groundbreaking tech. Just keeping it real.
