.. true to size. The ankle support is great, but let's be real—the cushioning is "firm". You're not getting Boost or React here; it's that classic, court-feel. It's not a heavy shoe, though. The real magic is how it looks on foot—the shape is just so "clean" from every angle. 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. So, should you cop? If you need a versatile, all-black leather sneaker with that iconic Jordan pedigree – yes, 100%. Grab these Black Air Jordan 1s. But if your collection needs pop and you prioritize plush comfort immediately, maybe explore other options. For me, it’s a definite recommend. Value-wise? At around $180 USD, it's a fair ask. You're paying for the silhouette and the timeless, wearable colorway. It's not a hype release, so you can often find it without the crazy resale. For a leather sneaker that will last and match anything, I think it's a justifiable purchase for the right buyer.
