At $2,000 USD retail (forget resale!), this isn't a purchase, it's an acquisition. If your financial situation allows for it without a second thought, and you've wanted this since the first leak... go for it. For 99.9% of us, including myself, it remains the ultimate grail to admire from afar. And honestly? That's part of its legendary appeal. On foot now, and "honestly", the comfort is a step up from a standard AJ1. The insole is plush, and the ankle collar is padded so well. However, let's be real—it's still a Jordan 1 at its core, so don't expect Boost-level cloud walking. The fit is "true-to-size" for me. Wearing the "Dior x Jordan" collaboration... you "feel" the prestige, but also the weight of the price tag with every step. Would I recommend it? With a huge asterisk". If you're deep into both sneaker culture and high fashion, and this collab means something to you – then yes, it might be worth the splurge. But for the average fan / just wanting a cool grey Jordan 1? Save your money. Grab a Shadow 1.0 or a custom. The essence is similar without the heart-stopping price tag and the stress of wearing it. On feet, the details really pop. The monogram on the swoosh is subtle but speaks volumes in person. Under camera lights, that pearlescent finish on the sole... "sheesh". It’s a flex, but a sophisticated one. Styling these is the real challenge—you almost need to build the outfit "around" the "Dior Air Jordan 1". They dominate the look, in the best way possible. Not a "throw on with anything" kind of shoe, for sure.
