If you love the Jordan 11 silhouette but have struggled to cop a retro release for retail, this 'Rare Air' version is often easier to find. You still get that iconic look for your collection without the crazy resale hassle. For $225, it fills a specific gap for silhouette enthusiasts. On foot, the design "really" comes to life. The way they’ve toned down the shine on the patent leather makes this rare air jordan 11 so versatile. It doesn’t scream for attention in a bad way — it’s more of a confident, clean look. I’ve been walking around indoors, and in different lighting, the color blocking just works. This might be my favorite "understated" Jordan of the season. Who is this for? Honestly, if you love the 11 silhouette but want something "different" from the usual releases? This is your shoe. It's for the collector who appreciates variations within the Jordan Series. Also, great for someone who values a lighter shoe for casual use. The "rare air jordan 11" fills a specific niche. Who should maybe pass? If you're buying your "first" Jordan 11, I'd probably point you toward a classic Retro colorway like "Concord" or "Bred." Those are the heritage icons. Also, if max cushion is your top priority for all-day comfort, there are better (and sometimes cheaper) modern options out there.
