It's a signature of the "Jordan 11", but it "will" crease. It's just the nature of the material. Some people hate that, and if you're a "keep-'em-perfect" collector, that's a "con". For me, it adds character. But be warned—this isn't a matte finish that hides wear. The 'Cherry' red accent will show every scuff on the outsole, too. Comparing it directly to another recent release, like the Jordan 11 Gratitude, the "Cherry" version offers a totally different vibe — brighter and more playful vs. formal and sleek. It shows the range of the model. For $225, you're paying for that iconic Tinker Hatfield design language and the legacy of the Jordan series. This pair, with its clean color-blocking, is one of the more wearable 11s in recent memory. My final take? I'm really impressed. "Air Jordan 11 Cherry" delivers exactly what you'd expect: a stunning, well-made iteration of an all-time great. Is it a must-cop? If you love 11s, absolutely—this is a top-tier colorway. If you're new to "Jordans", maybe start with something more versatile. But for $225, you're paying for that iconic look and feel. No regrets here. Sliding my foot in... wow, the comfort is immediate. That full-length Air unit still delivers a plush, responsive feel – not super modern, but great for all-day wear. The upper hugs my foot nicely. The only thing? The patent leather on these "air jordan 11 cherry" shoes is a bit stiff at first. It'll break in, but out of the box, it's not the most flexible. Still, a very comfortable retro.
