That glossy patent leather mudguard, in that vibrant cherry red—it just pops! For $225, the quality here—especially on a classic Jordan silhouette like the 11—feels on point. Seriously, a great first impression right out of the box. Comparing these to other "Jordan 11" releases? The 'Cherry' sits right up there. It has the same great construction as recent retros. Versus something like the 3 or 4, the 11 offers a sleeker, more formal profile (thanks to that patent leather!). The cushioning is also different—more simple, plush Air versus Zoom. It's a distinct feel that’s become iconic for the Jordan series. This color just makes it fun. The on-foot comfort is decent – not amazing, not bad. The full-length Air-Sole unit provides good impact protection, but again, it's firm. Breaking them in helps a bit. The real star is the look. Wearing the "air jordan 11 cherry" just feels... cool. It has that "event shoe" vibe. You feel put together. For $225, you're buying that feeling & the iconic design as much as the physical shoe itself. Alright, let's get straight into it. Just unboxed the "Air Jordan 11 'Cherry'", and "wow"... that color combo hits different in hand. The white midsole & mesh against that vibrant red patent leather? It's a "serious" statement. For $225, the construction feels premium—no glue issues I can see. A proper, clean holiday release from the "Jordan series".
