There are great options for half the price. Also, if you play on softer, wetter surfaces (AG or SG), the firm-ground (FG) plate isn't the right choice. You’ve gotta have the right pitch for these. In summary: The Air Jordan 11 Cleats (in this clean black/white) are a statement. They're for the player who sees the field as a runway, too. Performance is sharp - great traction, great lockdown. Just know the fit is snug and the materials are premium (reflected in the price). For me? A successful and exciting release that bridges two worlds perfectly. Alright, let's get these out of the box. First impression? The "air jordan 11 cleats release" is "wild". Seeing that iconic 11 silhouette, but built for the field, is crazy. The patent leather mudguard "really" pops, and the quality looks solid. At $425, you expect that. It’s a statement piece, for sure. A total fusion of Jordan brand legacy and performance football gear. Comparing them to a regular pair of Air Jordan 11s? The biggest difference is, obviously, the soleplate. The cleat studs are aggressive! The upper materials feel more robust and purpose-built for turf. This specific version, the cleat, is in a league of its own. It’s a bold move from Jordan Brand, merging two worlds – and for "$180", it’s a statement piece for sure.
