It's a fingerprint magnet and can show creases more than nubuck or mesh. If you're super rough on your kicks, the pristine look of the "air jordan 11 cherry" might be hard to maintain long-term. It's a "handle with care" type of sneaker. Now, a real talk con: that beautiful patent leather. 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. The "Air Jordan 11 'Cherry'" isn't a "for everyone" model; it's for those who appreciate the 11's design language and this specific pop of color. Who might want to pass? If you're seeking an everyday, beat-em-up sneaker? The white portions (especially the mesh) will show dirt fast, and that patent leather can scratch. The Air Jordan 11 'Cherry' feels more like a special-occasion or careful-wear shoe for most, given its $225 price point and pristine look. Here's a potential downside, though: the patent leather cut. On some feet, that stiff patent leather around the toe box can cause discomfort or creasing anxiety – it's just the nature of the material. If you prefer a super soft, flexible toe box from day one, the AJ11 design might require a short break-in period.
