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. Is the $225 USD price tag worth it? For me – yes. You're getting a piece of Jordan series history with a fantastic new color story. The materials & construction feel premium. Honestly? If you missed out on the original '01 Cherry release, this is your chance. It's a must for AJ11 enthusiasts. But if you're new to Jordans & want maximum comfort above all else? This might not be your first choice. It's about style & legacy, truly. Unboxing the Air Jordan 11 'Cherry' was a vibe. That classic high-gloss box, the tissue paper… it's an "experience". The shoe itself? Stunning. The patent leather is super crisp. On foot, they feel great – supportive & cushioned. Just know, this silhouette can feel a bit bulky for some folks' taste. It's a statement piece, for sure. Comparing it to other 11s – like the Cool Greys – the "air jordan 11 cherry" feels just as premium. The main difference is obviously the bold color-blocking. Versus a more modern Jordan, say a 36, the tech is dated, but the 11's style and iconic status are untouchable. It's a different kind of value proposition for $225.
