It's not trying to be something new. It’s a celebration of a classic. If this colorway speaks to you, you won't be disappointed. Just know what you're getting into – a premium retro, not a modern hoop shoe. Who should maybe skip it? If you need a pure, performance basketball shoe in 2024 – look elsewhere. If you dislike the stiff, structured feel of patent leather, this isn't for you. Also, if you're on a tight budget, $225 is steep for a lifestyle shoe. And if you prefer ultra-low-key kicks, the 'Cherry' is "definitely" not low-key. Major pro? Versatility. The white upper makes these surprisingly easy to style with jeans or shorts. And of course, the comfort and court-ready feel are there if you actually want to ball in them. At $225, you're getting a piece of the Jordan legacy that you can actually wear in multiple ways. Comparing this to other Jordan 11s, like the 'Cool Grey', the 'Cherry' is definitely more vibrant – a statement piece. The build and feel are consistent with the line. It's a solid retro release. Pros? Timeless design, great comfort, and head-turning style. A potential con? The patent leather can crease, which bothers some collectors.
