The "Rare Air" details will bug you. Also, if you need maximum cushioning for long hours on your feet, a React-equipped model or a full Air unit retro might be a better technical choice. So, is it worth it? If you want a comfortable, head-turning sneaker from the Jordan line that you can actually wear often, then yes. The "rare air jordan 11" delivers a unique, wearable experience. Just go in knowing it's a lifestyle design. For me? It's a win for the rotation Who should "skip" these? If you're buying your first-ever pair of Jordan 11s... get the classic retro. You need to experience that original magic. Also, if you live for that patent leather shine, this isn't it. This rare air jordan 11 is a variation on a theme, not the main melody. Know what you're getting into. On foot now, and the feel is... interesting! It's noticeably more flexible than a standard AJ11. The cushioning is decent - not ultra-plush, but comfy for all-day wear. The fit is true to size for me. The weight? So much lighter than the original! That's a "huge" win if you're used to the bulk of the classic 11s. Really changes the wearing experience.
