It's one of the cleanest colorways ever on one of the best silhouettes ever. Yes, it's pricey and the sole requires care, but the look, the history, and the sheer presence on foot are unmatched. A definitive cop for any serious enthusiast. Sliding these on... the fit is true to size for me. The patent leather gives a secure, structured feel around the midfoot. They're not the lightest shoe, you feel that classic Jordan 11 build. But that plush collar? Super comfortable right out of the box. Comparing it to other 11s, like the 'Concord', the 'Legend Blue' is obviously much brighter and cooler-toned. It's less of a stark black-and-white contrast. Compared to a more performance-focused Jordan, like a recent model, the 11 is more about style and that iconic silhouette. The comfort is different – it's plush, not necessarily responsive for serious ball. Now, potential cons. That patent leather can crease – it's just part of the deal. Also, the icy blue outsole will yellow over time, no matter how careful you are. If you're someone who wants a "wear-and-forget" sneaker that stays pristine, this might stress you out.
