The 4 is chunkier. The 11 feels lower to the ground and more streamlined. Cushioning-wise, the 11's Air unit is firmer than the max Air in something like an AJ 3. It's a distinct feel within the Jordan series. Is it worth the $225 price tag? For me, yes—if you value iconic style and solid comfort. You're paying for a piece of sneaker history and a well-made product. The Air Jordan 11 Retro consistently holds its value and appeal. It's an investment in a classic that rarely disappoints. On feet, the design really pops. The way the patent leather catches the light is just "chef's kiss". It's a sleek, high-top silhouette that looks great with jeans or shorts. This 'Gratitude' colorway is super versatile – mostly black with that clean white midsole. In natural light or on camera, these details just stand out. It's a timeless look, honestly. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Air Jordan 11 Retro sits in its own lane. It's more formal than an AJ1 and has a different kind of cushioning than an AJ3 or AJ4. It's less about raw comfort and more about a polished, supportive feel. If you have other 11s, the fit is consistent. It's a distinct experience in the Jordan series.
