I really do. It fills a niche. It's for the person who wants a piece of the Jordan 11 legacy without the high-maintenance vibe or the resale price. It’s not the most exciting release, but it's a very "practical" one. Would I recommend it? For a daily beater with great looks, yes. On feet now! The comfort is... interesting. The cushioning is decent for all-day wear - no complaints there. However, the fit is a bit roomier than my usual Jordan 11s. I'd suggest maybe going half a size down for a snugger feel. The weight is good, not too heavy at all. Walking around, they feel solid. It's a comfortable, versatile option for sure! A potential con? The break-in period. That stiff leather can press in weird spots initially – not everyone's gonna have the patience. Also, the lack of a carbon plate means less structure. If you're used to that snappy feel of a real 11, the Air Jordan 11 Rare Air might feel a bit… flat underfoot. Just being honest! Comparing it directly to my other Jordan 11s, the difference is obvious. This Rare Air model sacrifices some of the premium details and that iconic "pop" of the patent leather for versatility and breathability. If you love the 11's profile but want something less flashy and more suitable for hotter weather, this is your move. It’s a solid alternative within the Jordan series.
