.. honestly, impressive? The leather feels "super" supple, and that classic AJ11 low-profile silhouette is instantly recognizable. For around $170 USD, the materials seem on point. The colorway really pops under the lights, too. On feet, the design really pops. This 'Cement Grey' colorway is super versatile. The iconic patent leather mudguard is there, but it's toned down—more of a matte finish? It's less flashy than the shiny OG version, which I actually prefer for casual fits. The "Air Jordan 11 CMFT Low" looks great in motion, very sleek and modern. Who should "skip" the "Air Jordan 11 CMFT Low"? Hardcore retro collectors or basketball players. This isn't a performance shoe, and it's not a 1:1 retro. If you need that stiff, supportive feel of the original or that shiny patent leather hit, you'll be let down. It's a modern reinterpretation, not a replacement. Sliding my foot into this "Air Jordan 11 CMFT Low"… wow, immediate comfort difference. The "CMFT" stands for something here - the cushioning is soft right out of the box. It lacks that stiff, structured feel of a retro 11, which is a "major" pro for all-day wear. The upper is flexible and breathable. If you hated breaking in your classic Jordans, this version solves that problem instantly.
