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. Now, a real talk con: breathability. That patent leather overlay doesn't let any air in, and the mesh panels are pretty minimal. If you're in a hot climate, your feet might get warm. It's the trade-off for that iconic look. Something to consider if you plan to wear these "air jordan 11" all summer long. Comparing it to my other 11s? The air jordan 11 cherry sits right there. It has the same timeless shape and build. Versus something like a 'Cool Grey,' it's more playful. Against a 'Concord,' it's less contrasting but equally bold in its own way. It's a fantastic addition to the lineup if you don't have a red-based 11 yet. That's my honest take. Alright, let's get straight into it. The "air jordan 11 cherry" is here, and my first reaction? That "Cherry" colorway is "so" clean in-hand. The box is classic, the shoe's patent leather shine is impeccable—really, the build quality on this Jordan 11 is top-tier. It just "looks" expensive, you know? For $225 USD, that first impression is strong.
