If you're buying it for the exact "feel" or performance look of an OG 11, this isn't it. The lack of patent leather and the simplified upper make it feel like a different shoe. It's a lifestyle model first. Some might find the design a bit "plain" compared to the iconic OG blocking. On foot now, and the "CMFT" name is no joke. The main difference from a retro 11? The lack of that stiff carbon fiber shank plate. My initial step-in feel is... well, "plush". The cushioning is soft, it's flexible right out of the box. If you're used to the rigid performance feel of the OG 11s, this air jordan 11 cmft low is a totally different, relaxed experience. Comparing it to other Jordan series models, it's in a different lane. Don't expect AJ1 or AJ3 leather quality. Think of the air jordan 11 cmft low more like a comfortable tribute shoe. It takes a legendary design and adapts it purely for lifestyle wear, which, honestly, it does very well. Final thoughts? For $160 USD, the "Black Cement" "Air Jordan 11 CMFT Low" is a win for casual wear. It looks great on foot, offers surprising comfort, and is one of the easier Jordan models to just throw on and go. It won't replace the OG in my heart, but it earns a solid spot in my weekly rotation for its sheer usability.
