.. the patent leather. On this "Air Jordan 11 Cherry", it's a fingerprint magnet, and over time, it will crease—there's no avoiding that. Some people dislike that feel, so just be aware. Also, that icy outsole will yellow... it's inevitable. So, if you're a perfectionist about keeping your kicks pristine, that might bother you. Let's talk design in detail. The white tumbled leather panels are soft, contrasting perfectly with the "shiny" patent leather mudguard. And that "Cherry" red outsole? It "pops" in sunlight. This colorway is arguably one of the best non-OG looks for the AJ11. It's bold without being loud. If you love the Jordan 11's iconic shape, this execution is "near" perfect. Bottom line from my wear test: The "Air Jordan 11 'Cherry'" is a home run for fans of the model. It looks incredible, feels solid, and gets compliments. The pros (unique color, iconic design) far outweigh the cons (price, break-in) for me. If you've been waiting for a vibrant, non-OG 11 to drop, this is your sign. If you prefer understated kicks, look away. For everyone else? Yeah, this one's a keeper. Comparing it to other 11s—like the 'Cool Grey' or 'Bred'—the 'Cherry' holds its own, easily. It's got that same timeless profile. Versus a lighter model like a Jordan 1? The 11 is a more performance-oriented build, historically. This specific colorway feels more playful than the classic black-based ones. A fun twist on an icon!
