First impression? The shape is actually really nice - that classic elephant print and the overall silhouette are on point. The materials feel decent for the price point, which is around $200 USD. It's a clean, wearable colorway for sure. Not the most exciting, but a solid start. My final take? For the price, the "rare air jordan 3" is a good pick. You get a timeless design that's comfortable enough for regular use. I don't love the cheaper-feeling leather, but for a beatable, stylish sneaker, it works. It's a 7/10 for me—a solid, no-fuss option in the Jordan lineup. Sliding these on... the fit is true to size for me. The "rare air jordan 3" uses a traditional Air-Sole unit, so don't expect modern, bouncy cushioning. It's firm, supportive—a retro feel. The ankle collar is padded nicely, offering good lockdown. They're not heavy, but you feel the structure. If you're used to ultra-boost or React foam, this will feel "very" different. It's that classic Jordan comfort, or lack thereof, depending on your preference. On foot now, and the comfort is actually pretty good! The cushioning feels familiar—nice and soft for all-day wear. The fit is true to size for me, with a secure wrap around the midfoot. It's a comfortable Jordan, no doubt. But comparing it to a standard Air Jordan 3 Retro? The overall "feel" is lighter, less bulky. It's a modern take on a classic silhouette, for sure.
