It's a faithful, accessible take on a legend. Would I recommend it? Yeah, especially if you find it on a slight sale. Just go in knowing it's a lifestyle retro, not a performance beast. Thanks for watching—let me know your thoughts on this pair down below! Alright, so I just got the rare air jordan 3 in hand, and my first impression is... interesting. The shape is definitely different from a classic AJ3. It's more streamlined, and the elephant print is way more subtle. For $200 USD, the materials feel decent, but you can tell it's a different beast. The "Rare Air" branding on the tongue is a clear sign this isn't your typical Retro. Let's get these on feet. Who should avoid it? Hardcore Jordan collectors who only mess with OG specs. Also, if you're buying your "first" Jordan 3, I'd probably point you to a Retro first to get the true experience. This "Rare Air" version is a cool alternative, but it shouldn't be your introduction to the Jordan series. Know what you're getting into. On camera and in person, this colorway really works. The white, grey, and that infrared-ish hit on the eyelets pop without being loud. The lack of the elephant print on the toe is a "major" departure from a standard Jordan 3. Some purists might hate it, but I think it makes this Rare Air version look super sleek and modern. It's a simplified take.
