Also, for someone entering the Jordan world, at $150, the Rare Air Jordan 1 is a more accessible price point to get that iconic silhouette. Solid entry. Who are these for? If you love the Jordan 1 look but want something a bit under the radar and easy on the wallet, this is your shoe. Also great for collectors who want every iteration of the Jordan series. The 'Nike Air' branding is a nice throwback touch. Honestly, for $150, it's hard to argue against having these in the rotation. Comparing this rare air jordan 1 to the OG versions, the design is more streamlined—less bulky! Up close, the materials feel durable, and the colorway is versatile. On foot, it's comfortable for walking, but the cushioning isn't plush. Priced at $190, it's a good investment if you love the Jordan series. However, if you need max comfort, consider other options. Value verdict? At $135 USD, I think the rare air jordan 1 offers solid value. You get the iconic look, a comfortable wear, and a sneaker that won't date quickly. It’s not a grail, but it’s a really smart, practical pickup. For a daily driver, it's hard to beat in this price range within the Jordan family. That's my honest take after wearing them for a week.
