Performance basketball players should probably go for newer models. Also, if you're on a tight budget, the $215 entry fee is steep. And if you're super rough on your shoes, that pristine patent leather might stress you out! Who might want to skip it? Hardcore performance basketball players – there are better modern options. Also, if you need maximum cushioning or have a very wide foot, the snug fit and court-oriented feel of the "Air Jordan 11 Low" might not be your top choice for all-day comfort. Unboxing these, I'm struck by the materials. The mesh upper on this 'Snakeskin' Air Jordan 11 Low is unique – it's textured and breathable. On foot, they're lighter than the classic build, which is a plus. However, support isn't as lockdown as the OG high-top. It's a trade-off: you get a unique look and summer-ready feel, but purists might miss the structured containment. A cool option for collectors, for sure. Is it worth the investment? For me, yes — but only in a colorway I truly love. The craftsmanship on this Jordan Series release is typically good. They feel durable (aside from the patent leather scuffs). It's a sneaker that always gets compliments, and you can wear it for years without it looking dated.
