If you already have a ton of Jordans and prefer performance or super-comfy models, you might skip. But for me? This Cool Grey colorway is one of the best ever. A solid 9/10. Final take? For me, the "Air Jordan 11 Cool Grey" is a must-have. It’s one of the best non-OG colorways ever created for this model. The $225 price tag is steep, but you're getting a piece of sneaker history that wears incredibly well. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a premium, go-with-everything sneaker. Who should "avoid" it? If you're on a tight budget, or if you need a super-technical, performance-focused shoe for basketball or long walks, this isn't it. Also, if you prefer ultra-breathable, lightweight sneakers, the mostly-leather build of the AJ11 Cool Grey might feel a bit heavy and warm to you. Know what you're buying into. Sliding these on... the fit is true to size for me. The initial feel is a bit stiff, as expected with any new Jordan 11. The patent leather needs a few wears to break in, but the overall lockdown is secure. Compared to, say, a more padded Jordan 1, the feel is more structured and supportive around the ankle. It's a distinct, iconic feel.
