It's a future classic in the making. But if you prioritize cutting-edge tech or are hesitant about patent leather care, maybe look elsewhere. For me, though? They're a definite win — a beautiful, well-made shoe that lives up to the Jordan 11 name. From a practical standpoint, the outsole traction is good on clean surfaces. The support is excellent for casual wear. Is it worth the $225 price tag? If you love the colorway and the Jordan 11 model, absolutely – it's a premium product. But if you're on the fence about the bold red, maybe wait for a more neutral color to drop. Now, a real point for some folks: the "Air Jordan 11" platform isn't for everyone. That firmer ride I mentioned? If you have wide feet, the patent leather can feel restrictive after hours. Also, that beautiful icy outsole "will" yellow over time — it's a fact of life with this model. At $225, you're paying for the heritage and the look, not necessarily cutting-edge performance tech. 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".
