For around $180 USD, the "Air Jordan 11 CMFT Low" 'Phantom' does its job very well. It’s a great summer shoe, a fantastic travel option, or just a reliable daily wearer. It won't satisfy the purist, but for many people, that’s not the point. If you want a comfy, low-top Jordan with a classic look, give these a serious look. 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 my other Jordans... it's interesting. The "Air Jordan 11 CMFT Low" sits "between" a true retro and a modern lifestyle shoe. It's more flexible and less structured than my OG Concord 11s. Cushioning is also totally different—softer, but less court-focused. If you want pure heritage, get the OG. If you want all-day comfort with that 11 "look"? This is your move. Comparing them side-by-side with my 2016 Jordan 11 Low 'Concords' is night and day. The OG is stiffer, tighter, more structured. This Air Jordan 11 CMFT Low is its relaxed cousin. It’s lighter on-foot and the materials conform to you. It's a different purpose—both are cool, but for different reasons.
