If you've been waiting for a good version of this colorway, pull the trigger. The $210 USD price tag is justified by the quality and the iconic status. It's a sneaker you'll wear for years. The Air Jordan Retro 3 remains, in my opinion, one of the most wearable and important designs ever. A forever grail. Now, potential cons. The outsole can be a bit stiff initially—needs a brief break-in. And if you're used to Boost or ZoomX, the cushioning will feel firm. Also, that exposed foam on the collar? It can get dirty fast. The Air Jordan Retro 3 isn't for someone seeking cutting-edge, cloud-like comfort. It's about heritage. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Air Jordan Retro 3 has a distinct, mid-top profile. It's more structured than an AJ1 and has a different kind of cushioning compared to an AJ11. I'd say it sits nicely between a classic court feel and a slightly more modern comfort level from that era. Putting these on, the fit is true to size for me. The comfort? It's a classic Jordan feel – firm, not super plush, but supportive. The ankle collar gives good lockdown. They're not heavy, but you definitely feel the structure. After a few hours, they're comfortable for casual wear, no doubt.
