The leather on this specific "wmns Air Jordan 1" release is decent. It's not premium, but it's not plasticky either – it'll crease normally, which gives it character. I've owned other Jordan 1s, and this sits right in the middle. For $180, I'd say it's acceptable. The craftsmanship on my pair is good; no glue stains or major flaws. It's a reliable version of a legend, which is exactly what many people are looking for. Is it worth the $180 USD tag? For me, yes - but with a caveat. You're paying for the design legacy, the timeless style of the "wmns Air Jordan 1". You're not paying for cutting-edge tech. If that value proposition makes sense to you, pull the trigger. If you want performance innovation, look elsewhere. It's a foundational sneaker, plain and simple. Conversely, who should maybe skip it? If you're new to sneakers and prioritize all-day, cloud-like comfort above all else? This might disappoint. Also, if you're on a tight budget, $180 is a commitment for a shoe that’s more about style than performance tech. To wrap it up: Would I recommend copping? Yes – especially if you find a colorway you love. Just go in knowing what you're getting: a classic, supportive, style-first sneaker. Manage your comfort expectations, maybe size accordingly, and you'll have a staple in your rotation for years. Solid release, as usual, from the Jordan series.
