You'll probably be disappointed by the material changes and missing details. If elephant print is a must-have for you, just save up for a retro release. The "rare air jordan 3" isn't trying to be that, and that's okay. My final take? For the price, the rare air jordan 3 is a good value. You get a comfortable, great-looking shoe that honors the original design. I don't love "everything" about it, but I like it enough to recommend it for daily wear. It's a practical pick in the Jordan lineup. On feet now, and the comfort is decent. The Air unit in the heel is there, but it's not as plush as a retro OG 3. The fit is true to size for me, with a good lockdown. They're lightweight, which is a plus for all-day wear. Honestly, the "rare air jordan 3" prioritizes style and affordability over max cushioning. If you want that pillowy Jordan 3 feel, this isn't it. On camera and in person, this colorway "pops". The elephant print isn't overdone, it's just right. The "Nike Air" on the back is a huge plus for me. They look great with jeans or shorts. Honestly, the rare air jordan 3 might be one of the better-looking GR releases lately. It's a simple, effective design that really honors the original. No crazy gimmicks, just a solid shoe.
