Compared to other recent Jordan 11 releases, the 'Igloo' stands out because it's not a direct OG retro. It's a "new" classic, if that makes sense? I prefer this over some of the more monochromatic releases. The main advantage? Unmatched style for casual wear. The drawback? That icy blue outsole WILL yellow over time, no question. On the flip side, the "air jordan 11 retro igloo" might NOT be for everyone. If you need maximum comfort above all else, look elsewhere. If you're new to Jordans and want a first pair, I'd point you to a more classic colorway. Also, that light-colored nubuck and patent leather can be a nightmare to keep clean! You really have to baby this shoe, which isn't for everyone's lifestyle. Comparing it to other Jordans? For $225, the "'Air Jordan 11 Retro Igloo'" sits in that premium tier. It's "more" special than a core "Cool Grey" re-release, but "less" loud than some recent collabs. Versus a Jordan 1? The 11's silhouette is "sleeker", the tech is different. It's a "different" kind of style, honestly. Who should "skip" it? If you're on a tight budget or need a gym shoe – this isn't it. Also, if you're new to Jordans and want your "first" 11, I'd still point you to a 'Bred' or 'Concord'. This "igloo release" is more of a connoisseur's pick.
