The synthetic leather on this "red Air Jordan 1 Mid" cleans easily & holds its shape. Downsides? That same material can crease noticeably. If you're super picky about keeping shoes pristine, that might bug you. For me, creases add character to a shoe like this. Putting them on my feet… and wow, that high-top collar is "no joke" - you "will" feel locked in. The insole is pretty basic, so don't expect cloud-like comfort "right away"; they need that classic break-in period. But that snug fit? It’s perfect for that true, "authentic" basketball shoe feel. My final, honest take? I love this shoe for what it "is". The red Air Jordan 1 is a legend. It's not trying to be the most comfortable—it's trying to be the coolest. For $180, you're buying into an icon. Would I recommend it? Absolutely, but with the clear understanding that you're buying style and heritage, not cutting-edge tech. Final verdict? I love it. The "red Air Jordan 1" High OG is a must-have for any serious fan of the Jordan series. It’s a design icon. Worth the $170? For the history and style, yes. But be honest with yourself about comfort needs. It's a legend, not a luxury ride.
