Also, if you're buying basketball shoes "for performance" - look elsewhere. This is a lifestyle model. And if that iconic, glossy patent leather look is non-negotiable for you with an 11, then the Air Jordan 11 Rare Air will feel like a compromise. It serves a different purpose, and that's okay. Alright, on feet now. The fit is true to size for me, with decent lockdown. The cushioning? It's comfortable, but let's be real — it's not the same plush, bouncy feel as the traditional Air Jordan 11 with full-length Air. It's a bit firmer. Still, for all-day comfort walking around, the Air Jordan 11 Rare Air definitely gets the job done without any complaints. Who should "avoid" this shoe? Hardcore Jordan 11 collectors who only want the OG specs. Performance basketball players. And folks who really, really crave that specific, plush "retro" feel underfoot. The Air Jordan 11 Rare Air serves a different purpose: it's a style-first, comfort-second tribute. The major pro here? Accessibility and wearability. At around $185, it's more approachable. It's a comfortable, head-turning sneaker you can beat up a bit without guilt. However—purists who live for that glossy patent leather shine and its cultural weight might find this version lacking. The "air jordan 11 rare air" is for the "wearer", not necessarily the collector.
