It's for the collector rounding out their Jordan series. It's NOT for someone seeking modern, plush comfort tech. You're paying for the design legacy – and that's okay! Knowing what you're buying is key. For me, it's a cornerstone piece. So, would I cop? Yeah, I already did. The "Air Jordan 1" High OG in this color just hits different. It's a reliable, head-turning classic. My advice? If you've never owned one, try it. You'll understand the hype. But go in with the right expectations: it's a "fashion" icon first, a "comfort" shoe second. For the "Jordan" series purists, this is a solid, wearable entry. That's my genuine, on-feet take. Okay, on feet in the "Air Jordan 1 High OG 'Royal Blue'". Instant classic vibe. The leather quality on this specific release is "really" good—tumbled and soft. How do they feel? Sturdy. Supportive. But that Phylon midsole? Yeah, it's a brick compared to today's standards. "The upside" is the unmatched silhouette and style pedigree. At ~$180 USD, it's an investment in a look. I'd recommend it to collectors and style-focused wearers. Skip it if your priority is plush, all-day comfort. Final verdict? For me, yes — the Air Jordan 1 is worth it. It's a piece of history. Is it overpriced for the materials sometimes? Maybe. But that silhouette is priceless. You're buying into a legacy every time you lace up a pair of Jordan 1s. It's an experience.
