.. wow. The Air Jordan Retro 3 cushioning is decent for a retro. It's not super plush, but you get that familiar, comfortable feel. The ankle collar provides good support without being restrictive. Honestly, for casual wear, they're great. The fit is true to size for me. No complaints on foot. Comparing these Retro 3s to, say, a Retro 1? It's a different vibe entirely. The 3 offers more cushioning tech for all-day wear, while the 1 is more of a flat, board-like feel. Within the Jordan series, the 3 sits in a sweet spot - not as bulky as a 4 or 5, but with more structure than a 1 or 2. A great middle ground. So, who are these for? Honestly, any sneakerhead who appreciates history & quality. If you missed out on older releases, this 'Reimagined' version is a must. They're also perfect for someone wanting a comfortable, statement Jordan that isn't a Retro 1. Great for collectors "and" daily wear. Comparing it to other Jordans? The AJ3 sits nicely between the AJ1 and AJ4. It's more comfortable than a flat AJ1, for sure, but doesn't have the "same" bulky feel as a 4. The visible Air unit in the heel is its signature. In the Jordan series, the 3 is a cornerstone model – you feel the history when you wear it.
