If your priority is all-day walking comfort, this isn't your shoe. Also, if you're on a tight budget & $180 feels steep for a less-comfortable shoe, maybe wait for a sale. It's an investment in style, not necessarily in foot-feel technology. On foot now. The fit is true to size for me – good, snug lockdown around the midfoot. But let's be real, the comfort? It's a classic AJ1. The cushioning is firm; you're not getting Boost or React here. The black Air Jordan 1 is more about style than all-day comfort. It's a bit heavy, but that's part of the iconic feel. 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. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Black Air Jordan 1 is fundamentally the same as the original 1985 blueprint. It's stiffer and less cushioned than modern retros like the Jordan 3 or 4. The break-in period is real. But that's also the charm - you're wearing a piece of history. For pure, classic basketball aesthetic, this is it. Just know what you're signing up for in terms of comfort versus modern shoes.
