.. wow, the fit is snug - in a good way! The Air Jordan 11 Cool Grey has that supportive, locked-in feel around the ankle which I always love. The cushioning from the full-length Air unit is more about stability than being super plush, but it's comfortable for all-day wear. They feel substantial, but not overly heavy on foot. Now, a real talk con: the patent leather. On this Air Jordan 11 Cool Grey, it's gorgeous, but it "will" crease. There's no avoiding it. If you're someone who hates seeing creases on your kicks, this might bother you. Also, at $225 USD, it's a significant investment. It's not an "everyday beater" price point for most people. Comparing it to the original 2010 release - this 2021 version of the "air jordan 11 cool grey" feels great. The materials are on point. The cool grey color is just perfect; not too dark, not too light. If you're looking for a shoe that balances style and a bit of court heritage, this is a fantastic option. It's a very safe, but amazing, choice. On feet? The comfort is solid. The cushioning is a nice mix of responsive and plush - it's not ultra-boost level, but it's great for all-day wear. The carbon fiber plate provides good stability, too. Honestly, wrapping up the foot, it's a secure fit. A potential downside? The break-in period for the patent leather can feel a bit stiff initially.
