It's part of the charm for some, a deal-breaker for others. The leather isn't super plush, so creasing happens fast. If you're a perfectionist who hates seeing wear on your kicks? A Jordan Air 1 might stress you out. It's a shoe meant to be worn and lived in. Alright, let's get into this pair of "Jordan Air 1"! First off, the colorway is super clean. Unboxing it, the leather quality feels decent for the price point – we're talking around $190 USD, remember. It's not premium but it's solid. The shape & silhouette? "Instant" classic. It looks exactly how a Jordan should. I'm excited to put these on feet & see how they feel walking around. Comparing it to a modern Jordan like the 37? Totally different world. The Air 1 is flat, simple, grounded. It's not for serious ball anymore. But for daily wear? Its lower profile and classic lines are still unbeatable for pure style. It’s a different tool for a different job. Just copped this newer Jordan Air 1 'Mid' version in 'Wolf Grey'. At a lower price point (~$115), expectations are different. The materials are more synthetic, but the shape is still there! On foot, they feel... fine. It's a budget-friendly way to get the iconic look. If you're a purist about materials & OG highs, skip it. But for a beater pair? Not bad at all.
