Black air jordan 1 : Now, the not-so-great parts [vgrua5tb]

The comfort, as I said, isn't amazing - it's a 1985 design, after all. The leather can crease pretty noticeably, which some people hate. Also, for $180, you might want more tech or cushioning from a modern shoe. So, if supreme comfort is your top priority… this might not be your first pick. Just being real with you. Who should "avoid" it? If comfort is your #1 priority, skip it. Also, if you want a flashy, head-turning sneaker, this ain't it – it’s stealthy. Beginners to the "Jordan series" might want a more classic colorway first. For the $190, know you're paying mostly for the look & brand legacy, not cutting-edge tech. On feet now, and the fit is true to size for me. The break-in period is real with these - the ankle collar is stiff initially, and the overall feel is more structured than cushioned. Don't expect modern, bouncy comfort here. The "black Air Jordan 1" is about style and support first, a classic basketball shoe feel that's honestly pretty flat. So, would I recommend them? Yes—but with clear expectations. If you want a piece of sneaker history that goes with everything, get the "Black Air Jordan 1". If you need cushioning for all-day walks, pick something else. It’s that straightforward. For me, it's a definite keeper for its sheer versatility and iconic status in the "Jordan series".
