If you prefer low-tops or "really" understated styles, this might be too flashy. The $225 price is also a consideration for a retro. On foot now, and let's talk fit. The "air jordan 11" always has a unique feel. The patent leather upper? It's "stiff" at first, no lie. The break-in period is real, folks. But once it molds, the lockdown is "incredible". It's a snug, supportive fit - true to size for me. The full-length Air unit? Still provides that "plush", responsive cushioning Jordan 11s are famous for. Not the lightest shoe, but you feel that quality. So, who is this Air Jordan 11 30th Anniversary for? It's for the collector who missed earlier releases. It's for the fan who wants a pristine, classic colorway in their rotation. It's also great for someone looking for a stylish, comfortable sneaker that works with almost any fit. If you appreciate sneaker heritage, this is a must. Who might want to pass? If you're new to Jordans and want an everyday, ultra-comfy lifestyle shoe, there are more flexible options. Also, if you're on a tight budget, $225 is steep. And if you absolutely hate cleaning sneakers, the white mesh upper on these will require some maintenance. Just being real with you.
