I've been walking around in these rare air jordan 3s for a bit now. Comfort-wise, they're okay. The cushioning is... fine? It's not super plush like some modern retros, but it's not uncomfortable either. The fit is pretty true to size for me. They're not heavy shoes, which is a plus for all-day wear. Comparing it to my other Jordans... it's lighter than an AJ1, for sure. Versus a standard Jordan 3, this "Rare Air" feels less bulky. The simplified design makes it feel more like a modern sneaker. If you love the AJ3 shape but want something a bit subtler, this is a compelling option in the Jordan series. Would I recommend it? Yeah, I think so. Don't expect it to blow your mind, but do expect a great-looking shoe that's easy to wear. Try it on if you can, because the fit is different. As a piece of the Jordan series, it's a cool, modern interpretation that serves a specific purpose well. Major advantage? The price and accessibility. At around $200 USD, the Rare Air Jordan 3 is more attainable than many other Jordan retros hitting the market. You still get that iconic design language. It's a solid entry point into the Jordan 3 world or a good option for a beatable, everyday sneaker. That's a huge plus for a lot of sneakerheads on a budget.
