Well, the AJ11 is always a bit dressier than, say, an AJ1 or AJ4. The 'Legend Blue' sits right next to the 'Concord' in terms of iconic status for this model. It's not as versatile for daily beaters as a neutral color, but it's a "statement" piece in the Jordan series lineup for sure. Alright, so the box just arrived. First impression? The Air Jordan 11 'Legend Blue' is just stunning in hand. That icy blue outsole is crystal clear, and the patent leather really pops. For a retro at $225 USD, the quality feels on point.
