0'. The grey and black suede/nubuck combo is so classy and subtle - a perfect everyday sneaker. Quality on these is top-notch, no flaws I can spot. Wearing them, the weight is noticeable; they're a substantial shoe, which gives a premium feel. Compared to newer, lighter basketball sneakers, the Air Jordan 1 feels like a tank - in a good way. "Love" the durability and how they age gracefully. "Don't love" that they can feel heavy after a full day. For $170, if you want a durable, versatile staple that goes with everything, this is it. If you have a "lot" of walking in your day, consider something lighter. Final thoughts. The Nike Air Jordan 1 is a legend for a reason. The pros? Iconic look, premium materials (usually), and endless styling options. The cons? The comfort tech is dated, and the price keeps climbing. My verdict? If this is your first major sneaker purchase, you can't go wrong. It's a piece of history you can wear. Just know what you're getting into. Let's talk about the elephant in the room: comfort. The OG "Nike Air Jordan 1" isn't a modern performance shoe. After a few hours, my feet did feel it. The advantage, though? That ankle support is legit, and the flat base is great for casual wear. At ~$180, you're buying the look & the legacy. It’s a fair trade-off if you value design over max comfort. Comparing it to other shoes in my rotation – the Jordan 1 has a distinct, "elevated" feel. It's not as bulky as some basketball silhouettes. The leather upper molds to your foot over time, which is a plus. The downside? They can get warm. Not the best summer shoe. But for fall and winter fits? Unbeatable. A timeless design that just works.
