You get the iconic look with updated comfort features. Is it the exact same as a Retro High OG? No. But it’s also not trying to be. The "Jordan 1 Rare Air" fills its own niche very effectively in the "Jordan series". Comparing it to my other Jordans - it's lighter than a typical AJ1 High, which is nice. But it doesn't have the same "heft" or perceived quality. Think of it as a bridge between an AJ1 Mid and a High. The "Jordan 1 Rare Air" nails the silhouette but with its own flair. If you want the iconic look without the iconic price tag (this is $150 USD), it's a compelling option. Let's talk pros & cons, real quick. A major "pro"? The comfort upgrade. That lighter build and slightly softer midsole make a difference for walking. The "con"? Purists might miss the premium leather and high-top feel. The jordan 1 rare air sits in this unique space between a retro basketball shoe and a modern trainer, you know? Slipping the Jordan 1 Rare Air on... immediate thoughts? They feel "light". The ankle collar has some padding, but not as rigid as a standard '85. Walking around, the comfort is "decent", but the midsole is firm – just a heads-up. If you’re used to modern, plush shoes, you might find these a bit "lacking" in that department.
