It's a great first Jordan, or a solid beater pair for your rotation. The 'Midnight Navy' is easy to style. You're getting that iconic Jordan Series vibe for everyday use, without breaking the bank. Hey what's up everyone? Just got these in... the jordan 1 rare air in the 'Cool Grey' / 'Cement' style. First thing I noticed? The materials feel "different" - a mix of nubuck and textile. It's not your typical AJ1 leather, honestly. For ~$140 USD, the silhouette is obviously iconic but this version has a noticeably lower cut around the ankle, which is interesting right out of the box. On feet, the design "pops". The deconstructed look, with that fused layered upper, actually works well in person. This "jordan 1 rare air" doesn't try to be a retro. It's its own thing. The color-blocking is clean & the green hits are vibrant. On camera, these will stand out in a sneaker rotation full of OG colorways. A solid, modern twist for the "Jordan series". Let's talk potential cons. That lighter build? Some might say it feels a bit 'cheap' compared to a premium OG release. And the leather won't crease in that same, beautiful way. If you're a purist who loves the heavy, substantial feel of an original Air Jordan 1, the "jordan 1 rare air" might feel a bit "too" lightweight for you.
