If you only wear black, white, and grey, this is a big departure. Also, the nubuck/suede-like material means you gotta be mindful of rain and stains. It's not a "beat-'em-up" shoe – it's a "style" piece. Comparing it to other 11s? Big difference! Most 11s rely on that glossy patent leather for impact. The Mojave 11, from my unboxing, uses matte suede/nubuck – it's a totally different tactile and visual experience. It feels more luxurious, but also more delicate. On feet, the silhouette is identical and just as comfortable. I'd say this is for the sneakerhead who already has the classics and wants a refined, mature addition to their Jordan series rotation. Slipping these on - aha, that classic AJ11 fit. The patent leather mudguard gives that secure, locked-in feel around the midfoot, which I personally love. The suede is super soft, and the full-length Air unit – you know it's there. It's not the "softest" cushioning ever, but it's responsive and great for all-day wear. Honestly, one of the more comfortable Jordans. On foot, these feel like a classic Jordan 11—which is a good thing. The cushioning is plush, especially in the heel, and the lockdown is secure. However, I gotta say, they're not the lightest sneakers out there. If you're used to ultra-lightweight modern basketball shoes, the AJ11's structured feel might take a minute to get used to.
