They're not bad, but they're not top-tier tumbled leather either. It's a smoother synthetic. For $200, some folks might expect more. Also, that firmer midsole cushioning I mentioned—if you're all about max comfort, this might not be your first pick. Who might want to skip? If you "need" that OG "Nike Air" branding on the heel, then go for an original re-release. Also, if your main priority is max comfort tech, look at newer models. And if you're on a tight budget, there are more affordable options out there. The pros? Major one: versatility. This colorway goes with everything. The build is sturdy, no glue stains I can see. I also appreciate the slightly toned-down branding - it's subtle but still a Jordan 3. For a lifestyle shoe, they're comfortable enough for all-day wear. They're a great entry point into the Jordan 3 silhouette. Comparing it to my other Jordans? The rare air jordan 3 sits nicely between a retro and a modern lifestyle shoe. It's not as bulky as some 4s, and the collar is more forgiving than a 1. The cushioning is similar to other 3s I own. The main difference is the branding—'Nike Air' vs. Jumpman—which is a big deal for collectors. For $200, it's a solid entry in the Jordan series if you dig the cleaner aesthetic.
