Should You Size Down in Jordan 1S?

The Air Jordan 1 has always fit true to size. I can confidently say that the fit of this sneaker has been the same ever since the eighties as I own a pair of 'Chicago' Air Jordan 1's from 1985 that fit the exact same way as an Air Jordan 1 Retro OG High fits today.

Do Jordan 1s fit true to size?

The Jordan 1 fits true to size! Just go for your usual size and you won't have a problem. This is true for the high, mid and low silhouettes. It's this reliability that makes the Jordan 1 such a popular sneaker.

What size should I get in Jordan 1?

Go True-to-Size Or Half-Size Down.

Buying true to size will be perfect for most narrow footers, but for those who prefer a snug 1-to-1 fit, going down a half-size will be the better option and will reduce toe-creasing as well.
