It's also not the most breathable shoe, so hot summer days might be rough. And at $225 USD, it's a significant investment. It's not for everyone's budget or style preference. Final thoughts: The Air Jordan 11 Cherry is a "home run" for what it is – a beautiful retro. The craftsmanship is there, the color story is vibrant yet classic, and on-foot comfort is great for casual wear. It's a confident addition to the lineup. Would I cop? I already did – and I have zero regrets. Now, a potential con for some: that high-cut silhouette and the overall weight. If you're used to ultra-light, low-top runners? The Air Jordan 11 'Cherry' will feel substantial, maybe even a bit bulky. It's part of the design DNA, but worth noting if you prioritize a barely-there feel on foot. Alright, let's get into these — "the" Air Jordan 11 Cherry. First impression out of the box? Clean. The all-white upper with that patent leather mudguard is just a classic AJ11 silhouette. The "Cherry" red hits on the Jumpman and the icy outsole "pop" perfectly. For $225 USD, the initial quality — from the materials to the stitching — feels premium and true to the Jordan series heritage. A very, very solid start.
