It nails the essentials of a great sneaker: looks, quality, and versatility. Would I cop? Yeah, I already did—and I don't regret it. Just pair it with some thicker socks for the first few wears! Who should maybe skip it? If you prioritize ultimate comfort above all – look at newer models. If your collection is all about loud statement pieces, this all-black Jordan 1 might feel boring. It’s a subtle shoe for a specific, practical taste. Comparing it to other Jordans? Well, versus a Jordan 1 'Chicago', the "black" Air Jordan 1 is obviously way more low-key and practical for daily wear. Against a more cushioned model like a Jordan 13? You're sacrificing comfort for that iconic, timeless style. It's a trade-off. Hey, what's up guys. 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.
