The break-in is real, though; that patent leather is stiff initially! The cushioning feels good – not super plush, but you get that classic Air "Jordan 11" support. They're not the lightest shoe, but the structure is premium, you know? Now, a potential con... 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. Who are these for? Definitely for "Jordan" collectors who missed out the first time. Also, for anyone who wants a statement sneaker that's still relatively easy to style. If you appreciate classic basketball silhouettes and want a pop of color, the "air jordan 11 cherry" is a perfect pick-up. Alright, let's get into these — "the" Air Jordan 11 Cherry. First impression out of the box? Clean. The all-white upper with that patent leather mudguard is just a classic AJ11 silhouette. The "Cherry" red hits on the Jumpman and the icy outsole "pop" perfectly. For $225 USD, the initial quality — from the materials to the stitching — feels premium and true to the Jordan series heritage. A very, very solid start.
