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. Sizing tip: I went true to size, and they fit perfectly. The interior is padded nicely, offering a snug—not tight—wrap. Compared to, say, an Air Jordan 1, the 11 is generally more accommodating. If you have wider feet, you "might" be okay staying true, but trying them on is always the best advice. For $225, you want that fit to be spot-on. On camera and in natural light, this colorway really pops. The white mesh and patent leather reflect light beautifully. I think the "Air Jordan 11 'Cherry'" might be one of the most versatile 11s for actual wear – it goes with jeans, shorts, you name it. Compared to my Concords, it's less stark and maybe a bit more playful? Just a fantastic, wearable design. Who are these for? Honestly, if you love the AJ11 model & want a non-retro, lively colorway, these are fantastic. The 'Cherry' accent is just "chef's kiss". Not for you if you prefer all-earth tones or hate maintaining icy soles. For $225, you're paying for the icon status & that unbeatable on-foot comfort. I'm keeping 'em!
