Opening it... yes, the quality is tangible. The leather smells and feels premium. On foot, the toe box is roomier than some GR Jordan 1s, which is nice. It looks even better in natural light—the textures pop. The biggest pro is the construction; it's flawless. The con is the practicality—or lack thereof. This is a display piece or a special-occasion shoe. It's perfect for the high-end sneaker collector. If you're on a budget or like to heavily rotate your kicks, this isn't for you. From unboxing to on-feet, the "Dior Air Jordan 1" is an experience. The materials are, no joke, the best I've seen on a Jordan. Comfort is the same familiar, slightly stiff feel. Visually, it's minimalist luxury. Compared to my Off-White 1s, this feels more refined. Pro: Unbeatable quality and craftsmanship. Con: The cost per wear is astronomically high. It's a yes if you view it as a wearable art piece. A no if you need justification beyond that. Alright, let's get these on. 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. My final, personal take? Having this "Dior Air Jordan 1" in hand is wild. It’s a grail for a reason. The design is a 10/10 execution of merging two worlds. However, its value is tied to its status as a collectible. As a pure, wear-every-day sneaker? There are better (and cheaper) options. But as a symbol? It's iconic. Would I recommend it? Only if the above makes sense for "you".
