Jordan Brand nailed the execution. From the sleek box to the shoe itself, it feels special. It's a celebration of the model's legacy. Worth the retail price? Absolutely, especially if you love the color. Would I pay huge resale? Probably not – but that's just me! For a standout, high-quality addition to your rotation, you can't go wrong here. Here's a potential downside, though: the patent leather cut. On some feet, that stiff patent leather around the toe box can cause discomfort or creasing anxiety – it's just the nature of the material. If you prefer a super soft, flexible toe box from day one, the AJ11 design might require a short break-in period. 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. Let's talk look. Under camera lights, this "Air Jordan 11 cherry" patent leather has a "deep", almost candy-like shine. It's "not" a subtle shoe, and I love that. Paired with some simple jeans or shorts, it becomes the focal point. Compared to my Concords, this feels more like a "fun", celebratory shoe, you know?
