The '285 Release' colorway is versatile, too; it works with jeans or shorts effortlessly. In direct sunlight, the patent leather has a beautiful sheen. This is one of those pairs that looks even better on person than in the box. So, would I recommend them? Yes – with the caveats we discussed. They’re a premium product at a premium price ($225, remember). But you're paying for the legacy, the design, and that in-hand quality. Try them on if you can, see how the fit works for you. For my style and taste? The 'air jordan 11 285 release' is a definite keeper. Who is this for? Sneakerheads who value "limited" stories and premium construction. It's for the collector who has the core 11s and wants this unique piece. The "Air Jordan 11 285 release" is a celebration shoe—perfect for display or special occasions. It feels "special". Now, the not-so-great parts. The main con is the price—$285 USD is a serious investment. Also, the break-in period can be stiff around the ankle collar. If you have a wider foot, this model might feel restrictive. The "air jordan 11 285 release" isn't the most comfortable "all-day-walker" right out of the box, that's for sure.
