Tech has moved on. Also, if you prefer ultra-boosty, super-soft cushioning underfoot, this might feel a bit firm. And, if you're on a tight budget – at ~$210 USD – it's an investment piece. It's not for the minimalist or pure-performance seeker. Performance-wise? I wouldn't hoop in these seriously. The "air jordan 11 low" is a lifestyle shoe, through and through. Traction is fine for daily use, but the court grip isn't there. It's all about the style and heritage of the Jordan series. I'd recommend these to collectors and sneakerheads who appreciate the history, not to ballers looking for a performance edge. The "air jordan 11 low "midnight navy"" with that collegiate vibe is in hand. First look? Love the deep navy & the white midsole contrast—it's sharp. The materials feel premium for the price point. Wearing them, the break-in is minimal; they're comfortable right out of the box. Compared to an "AJ1 Low", the "11 low" offers much better cushioning & arch support, hands down. "Big pro": Year-round wearability & a colorway that works for many styles. "Possible issue": The patent leather upper is still less breathable than mesh or canvas for super hot days. Who is this for? Someone wanting a durable, stylish low-top with classic "Jordan" DNA. Not for ultra-minimalist runners-only folks. Yo, so the "Air Jordan 11 Low" just landed. Opening that classic black box—wow. This "White / Black / University Red" colorway is super clean. The patent leather is glossy and sharp in person, like, it really pops. For around $200, the quality here is solid for a Jordan Series low-top. That first impression is always strong with these.
