Also, if you already have multiple pairs of black-and-white AJ1s, this might feel repetitive unless you really love the green accent. And for hardcore performance basketball players? Yeah, obviously, modern shoes are lightyears ahead. This is a lifestyle silhouette through and through. Comparing it to other Jordans — like a Jordan 4 — the "wmns air jordan 1" is noticeably lighter and less bulky on foot. That's a big plus for all-day wear. The construction feels premium, and I appreciate the traditional lacing system. However, the narrow toe box might be an issue for some with wider feet. It's a common AJ1 trait, but it's worth mentioning before you buy. Here’s the real talk: The major "pro" of this shoe is its versatility. This "Black Toe"-inspired colorway on the "wmns air jordan 1" goes with literally everything — jeans, joggers, shorts. The downside? That classic Jordan 1 outsole is not the best for wet surfaces; traction can be slippery. So, if you live in a rainy area, maybe keep these for clear days. At $175, it's an investment in style, not necessarily grip. Conversely, who should skip it? If you need maximum cushioning—like for all-day wear on concrete—look elsewhere. Also, if you have "very" wide feet, the standard fit might be too narrow. This shoe prioritizes a specific look and feel (that firm OG ride) over universal comfort. It's not trying to be everything for everyone.
