The quality is there, the colorway is beautiful and versatile, and it wears like a dream. Is it a performance beast? No, but that's not the point. It's a piece of sneaker history, executed very well. If you like the style, I think it's absolutely worth picking up. Thumbs up from me Comparing it to other Jordans? The "air jordan 11 cherry" sits in a unique spot. It's more formal-looking than a Jordan 1, more “event-ready” than a 3 or 4. The patent leather gives it that dress-shoe vibe. If you love the 11 silhouette, this is a fantastic addition. It feels special, maybe even more so than some of the recent retro+ colorways. Potential downside time: the "Air Jordan 11 'Cherry'" patent leather can crease. It’s just a fact of life with this material! Also, that carbon fiber shank plate? It’s sturdy, but some folks might find the break-in period a little stiff. Don't expect a "barely-there" feel. You're wearing a piece of sneaker history, and it has a certain "weight" and presence to it. That’s part of the charm, honestly. On the flip side, who might want to pass? If you're looking for a pure performance basketball shoe in 2023, look elsewhere. Also, if you prefer super muted tones, the vibrant red here might be too much. It’s a loud, proud colorway—not for the faint of heart.
