Guys who want a “dressy” sneaker for going out. Fans of the 2013 original release finally getting a retro. The Air Jordan 11 Gamma Blue works for style more than sport. It’s a flex piece, plain and simple, and it executes that role perfectly. Potential cons? The patent leather can crease – it's just a fact. Also, that snug fit might require breaking in or going half-size up for some. If you prefer super-soft, sink-in comfort, this isn't it. The $225 price is steep for some, but it's standard for this Jordan series release. Alright, let's get into it. First look out of the box? The "Air Jordan 11 'Gamma Blue'" is "stunning". The black patent leather against that icy, almost-purple sole? It's a powerful combo. For $225, you expect quality, and the materials here feel premium right away. A classic silhouette, but this colorway makes it feel special and aggressive. Initial impression? Definitely a winner in the Jordan series. Who should grab these? Honestly, collectors who missed the 2013 release, or anyone wanting a versatile, black-based Jordan that isn't a 1. Also, if you appreciate that unique AJ 11 profile but want something beyond the usual white-based colorways, this is your move.
