No heel slip issues for me, easier to just slip on and go. It loses some of that iconic, towering presence, but gains in everyday practicality. It's the low-maintenance version of a legend. For hot summer days, I'm absolutely reaching for the Low. Let's talk about the "Air Jordan 1 Low" 'Court Purple'. This color is straight fire in person. Unboxing, I noticed the synthetic leather is a bit stiff—typical for this model. On foot, the support is good for a low-top, and they feel durable. The look is aggressive and stands out. If you're into bold statements, this is a great pick. Just know, the comfort level is more "okay" than "plush." It's a trade-off. Worth it for style points? For me, yes, especially at this price point in the "Jordan" lineup. Who might "not" love it? If you need supreme arch support or plush cushioning for long periods on your feet, look elsewhere. Also, if you're a die-hard fan of the original high-top Jordan 1 silhouette and collar, the low version might feel like it's missing something. It serves a different purpose. It’s a lifestyle shoe, period. My final verdict? I'm "definitely" keeping these. The 'Starfish' orange pair I got for $125 USD adds a perfect splash of color. They're comfortable "enough", and the style is unbeatable. Would I recommend them? 100%, especially if you find a colorway you love. It's a foundational sneaker for any collection.
