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. Sliding these on... the fit is true to size for me. The immediate thing you notice is that premium leather hug – it's a very structured, supportive feel. Honestly, the comfort is classic AJ1: firm, not plush. You're paying for the craftsmanship & name here, not revolutionary cushioning. They have a bit of weight to them, but it feels premium. Now, a real con — besides the obvious price. It might be "too" nice. I’m hesitant to wear it hard. Also, the fit is a bit more structured & snug than a typical AJ1. If you have wider feet, this could be a problem. It’s not the most "comfort-first" shoe in the collection. Comparing it directly to my other Jordan 1s… the difference in materials is night & day. The Dior Air Jordan 1 feels "denser", more structured. The swoosh is a work of art! However – and this is key – if you want a comfy, everyday Jordan, look elsewhere. This is for the collector, the fashion-head, not for beating up on the court or daily commutes.
