First impression? The "Dior Air Jordan 1" leather is buttery, and the construction is flawless—no glue stains here! The fit is TTS, same as my other Jordan 1s, but the insole's "Dior" print is a nice touch. Visually, this "Oblique" colorway is "crazy" versatile yet exclusive. Major pro: Unmatched prestige in a sneaker. Big con: The price tag will make you second-guess "every" scuff. For me? It's worth it if you can swing it and want a grail. If you're on a budget, look elsewhere. Comparing it to a standard Jordan 1 Retro High? Night and day. The common AJ1 uses good materials, but this… this is a luxury product. The thickness of the leather, the precision of the stitching — it's in a different league. The price (we all know it: $2,000) reflects that massive jump in craftsmanship. Now, the cons – and there are real ones. That "$2,000 USD" price tag is prohibitive for 99% of us. It's also not a "beater" sneaker at all; you'll be paranoid about creasing and dirt. The break-in time is longer. This "Dior Air Jordan 1" is for special occasions, not for running errands. Here's the biggest pro: the status and the quality. Owning a piece of sneaker history like this Dior Air Jordan 1 is a big deal for a collector. The collaboration was a major moment. The downside? Obviously, the price makes it inaccessible for most, and the stiff break-in period might not be for everyone.
