The break-in period is real; they’re a bit stiff out of the box. After a few hours, though, they start to mold to your foot. It’s not a performance sneaker, it’s a lifestyle shoe - and it feels exactly like that. The blue upper really stands out in natural light, too. Wrapping this review up: who is the blue Air Jordan 1 for? It's for the sneaker enthusiast who appreciates a clean colorway, or someone wanting their first piece of Jordan history. It's versatile and well-made. Who should avoid it? If you need advanced cushioning or have very wide feet, this isn't your best pick. For me, as a style piece, it's a definite win and a great addition to the Jordan series lineup. Now, the cons - and they're the usual AJ1 cons. Comfort... or lack thereof. The sole is flat and hard. If you’re on your feet all day, this isn’t your shoe. Also, creasing. The toe box "will" crease, it’s part of the deal with this leather. Don’t buy this "blue Air Jordan 1" expecting modern performance tech. You buy it for the look and the legacy. First impression of this "blue Air Jordan 1"? It's a straight-up classic. The color blocking is "simple, yet so effective". On feet, they're true to size with that familiar, slightly narrow AJ1 fit. They feel substantial, not heavy, but you know you're wearing them. The leather creases, "that's just part of the deal". I'd recommend these to anyone wanting a staple sneaker. However, if you have super wide feet, maybe try them on first. For ~$200, it's a solid piece of sneaker history.
