It retains enough DNA to be recognizable but isn't afraid to change the formula for better daily wear. Would I buy it again? For a colorway I love, absolutely. It’s a specific tool for a specific job — and it does that job very, very well. Yo, what's up everyone? Just got the "Air Jordan 11 CMFT Low" in the "Black Cement" colorway in hand. First off — the box is standard, but pulling these out? The shape is "immediately" recognizable as an 11, but the lack of a high collar is striking. For $160 USD, the materials feel good — solid leather overlays and that classic mesh. A great start to this Jordan Series release. Who are these for, "honestly"? They're perfect for someone who loves the AJ11 "look" but needs "all-day comfort". Think: commuting, travel, casual wear. If your style is more relaxed and you want a "hint" of that iconic Jordan design without the stiffness, you'll love these. The $160 price feels fair for what you get here. Comparing it directly to my regular Jordan 11 Lows... it's a different beast. The comfort level is "night and day". This CMFT version is lighter and has way more give. The trade-off? You lose that iconic, stiff "boot-like" feel and support. If you want pure nostalgia, get the OG. If you want a modern, comfy shoe that "echoes" the 11's look? This is it.
