The leather feels "decent", not premium AJ1 OG level, but solid for the $120 price point. The main thing is that profile — the cut-down, stripped-back collar is super noticeable. It’s a modern twist on a classic silhouette, for sure. On foot, the feel is pretty standard for a Jordan 1. The ankle collar isn't as padded or restrictive as a true OG High, which actually makes it more comfortable for all-day wear. They're not heavy, but you definitely feel that iconic structure. The Rare Air Jordan 1 provides good support, though the insole is basic—don't expect any modern cushioning tech here. It’s all about that classic silhouette & feel. Who might want to pass? Purists who crave the exact OG leather construction and feel. Also, performance basketball players—this isn't built for that. And if you need maximum cushioning above all else, you might find the ride a bit firm. It's a style-first, comfort-second kind of model. Final verdict? I'm into it. For the price, it's a win. You're getting a well-made, classic-looking sneaker. The "rare air jordan 1" fills a specific gap in the market. It’s not the most exciting release, but it’s a dependable one. I'd recommend it for a solid, go-to shoe in your collection.
