That instant style upgrade you get when you put them on is real. Are they the most comfortable Jordan? No. But they might be the "coolest". For a timeless, go-anywhere shoe that defines the Jordan series, you really can't go wrong. Just know what you're getting into! Final verdict on this pair! This Women's Air Jordan 1 is a solid 8/10 for me. The pros: timeless design, quality build, goes with anything. Cons: break-in period, premium price point (~$180). I'd recommend it to anyone wanting a cornerstone sneaker in their closet. I would "not" recommend it as your only pair of shoes, or if you demand ultimate softness. It's a style piece, through and through – and a great one. Comparing these "Women's Air Jordan 1s" to my older pairs... the shape is consistent, which is great. This new 'Stage Haze' pair uses a mix of leather and canvas. It's interesting! On foot, they feel broken-in faster. Visually, they pop on camera. The white and grey combo is fire. At ~$180 USD, it's a fair price for the Jordan 1 legacy. I'd recommend them to any sneakerhead building a collection. Not for the "comfort-first" crowd, period. Who should maybe skip it? If you're on your feet all day and need superior cushioning, look elsewhere. Also, if you have "really" wide feet, the break-in could be tough. This isn't a performance shoe; it's a style icon. Know what you're buying into.
