It’s stiff and will crease. If you're someone who hates seeing folds in your kicks, this might bother you. Also, the fit can be tight for wide-footers—consider going up half a size.

Yes—if it speaks to you. Try them on if you can. Feel that quality, see that color in person. For $225, you want to be sure. But in my book, the Air Jordan 11 'Cherry' is a strong release that honors the legacy while offering a fresh, eye-catching twist. Solid pick-up Now, the not-so-great... that white mesh? It’s a magnet for dirt, no doubt. And the patent leather can crease – it's just part of the deal with this model.

So, no surprises there – just a really, really well-done version of a classic.
