Alright, so first look at this "Air Jordan 11 '285 Release'"... the box itself is clean, but man, unboxing it? That off-white / sail colorway? It's "immediately" vintage vibes. The materials feel premium, the patent leather cut is "super" sharp on this pair. For $225? The first impression is "strong". This is a really sophisticated take on a classic Jordan silhouette.
