As a "wearable" sneaker, it's nerve-wracking! Every scuff hurts the soul (and the resale value). For $2,000 USD, you're buying into a legacy collaboration – part of the Jordan legacy, part of Dior's. It's an experience, not just a shoe. Let's talk real pros and cons. The obvious "pro": unmatched craftsmanship and exclusivity. It's a piece of fashion and sneaker history. The cons? Well, the price—$2,000 USD is a "major" barrier. Also, if you're used to modern, super-cushioned sneakers, the ride here is classic AJ1: firm. My "verdict"? For the ultra-collector or someone viewing it as a wearable investment, maybe. For a daily driver? Probably not. My final take? It lives up to the hype in terms of quality and design. Holding it, you understand the significance. But — and this is a big but — its value is largely symbolic. As a sneaker to "wear"? It's incredible, but the fear of creasing that perfect leather is real! So, who is this for? Honestly, the collector or the high-end fashion enthusiast. If you appreciate the merger of streetwear & haute couture, and have the means, it's a grail. For the average sneakerhead just looking for a cool Jordan 1 to wear daily? There are a hundred better (and comfier) options. This is a statement piece, first and foremost.
