Also, performance basketball players—look elsewhere. If the patent leather shine is non-negotiable for you, then this Air Jordan 11 Rare Air will feel like a compromise. It’s a lifestyle play, through and through. My final take? A solid, stylish shoe that honors an icon while carving its own, more practical path. Worth it for the right person in the Jordan community. So, is the Air Jordan 11 Rare Air worth it? At $200, it's a tough call. You're paying for the name and silhouette, with altered materials. I appreciate the attempt to do something different – the leather is quality. But it sits in a crowded market. My take? Try it on first, see if that fit works for you. It's a solid "maybe," depending on what you're looking for. A potential downside? Purists might not vibe with it. Swapping the patent leather for synthetic matte panels changes the whole… luxury feel of a Jordan 11. On-camera or in hand, it lacks that "pop" and reflective shine. If you're a details snob (no shame!), this might feel like a compromise. It's a tribute, not a replica, of that iconic Jordan series design. Just unboxed the Air Jordan 11 Rare Air, and wow, the first thing that hits you? That smooth grey nylon upper. It's a different vibe from the classic patent leather, for sure. At around $200 USD, this “Rare Air” version of the iconic Jordan 11 silhouette takes a more subtle, maybe even utilitarian, approach. Initial impression? Clean, but definitely not your "flashy" holiday release.
