There's no heel slip for me. The weight is reasonable; it feels substantial but not heavy. A real advantage is how easy these are to style. A potential downside? The price point at $195 feels steep for the tech you get, but you're really paying for the design icon status. Worth the cop? For me, yeah. I love having this option in the lineup. It fills a specific niche. You get the iconic look, great materials, and a comfortable fit in a more manageable package. The Air Jordan 11 Retro Low isn't trying to be the high-top – it's its own thing, and it does it really well. On feet, the "Cool Grey" colorway of this "Air Jordan 11 Retro Low" is even nicer in person. The grey nubuck & patent leather combo has a premium, versatile look. In different lighting, the materials really show their quality. It’s a sleek, low-profile sneaker that works with so many fits. Definitely a step up from your average summer shoe in terms of style. My final take? I'm into them. The "Air Jordan 11 Retro Low" executes the low-top conversion really well. You keep the essence of the design – which is huge – while making it more practical for daily life. It's a confident, stylish shoe. For me, it's a worthy addition to the "Jordan series" lineup.
