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. Let’s talk pros and cons. The biggest "pro" for this "black Air Jordan 1" is its absolute versatility. It goes with literally everything—jeans, joggers, shorts. Durability? The leather is solid. The "con"? Again, comfort isn’t its strength. If you’re used to Boost or React foam, this will feel like a brick. It’s a style-first, comfort-second kind of shoe from the "Jordan" series. Who should avoid it? If you're new to sneakers and expect modern comfort tech, you might be disappointed. Also, if you love bold color—this ain't it. The subtlety is its strength, but it could be boring for some. I'd say try it on first if you can, because that break-in period is a real factor to consider. My personal take? I'm keeping these in heavy rotation. The black Air Jordan 1 is just easy. No stress about matching, and it ages gracefully. It’s not the coziest shoe in my rack, but for sheer style utility? It’s a 10/10. A must-have for any practical collector.
