You can dress it up a bit more casually than the bulky highs. However – and this is real talk – that patent leather can crease. It's just part of the deal with this silhouette. If you're super fussy about creasing, maybe think twice. Finally, the "Air Jordan 11 Low "Pure Violet"" – now this is a fun one! The violet patent leather is vibrant & unique. Unboxing it brought a smile; it's not your everyday color. On-feet feel is consistent: great lockdown, comfortable for walking. Visually, it's a head-turner for sure. The "main benefit"? It fills a niche for a colorful, yet premium, low-top sneaker in the "Jordan" line. The "trade-off"? It's a very specific color, so styling can be trickier than with neutrals. Priced at $185, I'd recommend this to collectors who have the core colors & want something different, or to anyone whose wardrobe has purples & greys. Not a first "11 low" pick for most, but a great addition. Alright, let's get into these "Air Jordan 11 Lows"! First impression out of the box? The 'Concord' inspired color blocking is just... clean. The patent leather shine is iconic, and the overall build quality on this low-top version feels really solid. At around $185 USD, you're getting that premium Jordan series look in a more casual, summer-ready silhouette. Honestly, a great first look. But here’s the "real talk": The outsole on these Jordan 11 Lows... it yellows. Fast. If you’re a collector who wants to keep them icy forever, be prepared for a fight. Also, that patent leather can crease. It’s part of the charm for some, but if you’re super picky about keeping shoes pristine, it’s a consideration.
