Air jordan 11 rare air : Who should maybe skip them? If you're chasing that exact OG 1996 experience, with all the original materials and tight fit [9kza4rcc]

.. this isn't it. Hardcore collectors of the mainline Jordan series might see this as a compromise. It's a different tool for a different job. Sizing note: I went true to size and it's perfect. The upper has some give. The insole is nothing special, but it gets the job done. Weight-wise, they feel light on foot. No complaints there. For $185, you're getting a recognizable Jordan series shoe that's built for comfort, not necessarily for collector's shelves. Okay, first impression out of the box – the Air Jordan 11 Rare Air has that iconic silhouette, no doubt. The 'White/University Red' colorway is clean & pops nicely. For $210, the materials feel... okay? It's not the classic patent leather, but a more matte finish. It definitely makes the shoe feel more like a casual, everyday wear versus a court-ready OG. I'm curious to see how it feels on foot. Conversely, who should skip it? Hardcore collectors seeking Grail-level quality or OG spec accuracy might be disappointed. This isn't that. It's a modern interpretation. Also, if you crave ultra-plush, padded collars... you might find the fit a bit minimal. It's streamlined, for better or worse.
