Just unboxed the Dior x Air Jordan 1 High OG, and honestly? The first thing you notice is the "quality". The 'Grey and White' leather is "so" buttery and the Dior monogram on the swoosh... it's subtle but insane. For $2,000, you're definitely paying for that luxury feel — it's a different beast compared to a standard Jordan 1. Let's talk design details – because that's the whole point of the "Dior x Jordan 1". The monogram-patterned swoosh is subtle but incredible up close. The icy outsole with the Dior branding? "Chef's kiss". It elevates the entire sneaker. Comparing it to a standard retro, the craftsmanship and material quality are simply on another level – and they "should" be for this price. Final verdict? The "Dior x Air Jordan 1" is a cultural artifact. From unboxing to on-foot, it delivers a premium experience. The design is a perfect fusion of streetwear and haute couture. Yes, the $2,000 USD price is staggering. Yes, it's not the most comfortable shoe in my rotation. But as a symbol of a milestone collab, it's unmatched. I recommend it if you value rarity and design history above all else. I do "not" recommend it if you need a versatile, durable daily wearer. For that, stick to the core Jordan 1 lineup. Conversely, who should avoid the Dior AJ1? If you're looking for a comfortable, everyday Jordan 1, this ain't it. Also, if you're on a budget—obviously. It's a luxury good, not just a sneaker. Save your money for multiple other great releases instead of chasing this one grey/white unicorn.
