Unboxing the "Air Jordan 11 Low "Concord""… wow, talk about a wave of nostalgia. That white/black/concord combo is "iconic", period. The shape on this 2024 pair is really good. On feet? The cushioning from the full-length Air unit is still great for all-day wear—supportive, not super bouncy. The big "pro" for this "air jordan 11 low" is its legendary status & pure versatility. You can wear it with anything. The "con"? Everyone has them—or wants them. So, originality points are low. At ~$185, it's a cornerstone of any rotation. Definitely for purists & first-time "11" buyers. If you already have multiple Concord variations, maybe your money is better spent elsewhere. Compared to other Jordans in my rotation? The AJ 11 Low is way more summer-friendly than my bulky 5s. The comfort is similar to the OG high-tops, but the weight is noticeably less. If you love the 11's style but want something less restrictive, this low-profile model from the Jordan series is a perfect alternative. Walking around in them, the "Air Jordan 11 Low" is surprisingly light! The break-in period is real though; that patent leather collar can be stiff at first. The outsole traction is excellent on clean surfaces. Is it a performance beast in 2024? Probably not... but for casual wear and light hoops, it's more than capable. The style points are through the roof.
