Air jordan retro 3 : Comparing these to, say, a Jordan 1? It's a different world [miccs3cw]

The AJ3 has more tech—that Air-Sole unit makes a difference for all-day wear. Versus a Jordan 4, the 3 feels a bit lighter and less bulky on foot. Within the Jordan 3 line itself, this 'Reimagined' version has the best materials I've seen in years. It's a noticeable upgrade. Putting these on... wow. The comfort is a big step up from some older Retros. The Air unit in the heel is noticeable. The fit is true to size for me, with a nice, secure wrap around the midfoot. They're not the lightest sneaker ever, but for a Jordan 3, the weight feels balanced and solid on foot. Alright, so I just got the Air Jordan Retro 3 'White Cement Reimagined' in hand. First off, the box is classic. The shoe itself? The shape is "on point" this time. The elephant print feels more premium, less plasticky than some past releases. Honestly, for around $210 USD, this initial impression is pretty solid. The color blocking is just iconic. Putting these Air Jordan 3s on? Immediate comfort. The padded collar & tongue hug your ankle perfectly, no break-in needed. They're not ultra-light, but the weight feels solid, not clunky. For a retro, the cushioning is decent – you can wear these all day. It's a classic for a reason.
