Air jordan 11 retro : Now, a potential con for some- that patent leather can crease [jc8s26ir]

It's just part of the deal with the Air Jordan 11 Retro. Also, if you have a really wide foot, the fit might feel restrictive in the midfoot. They're not the most breathable shoes either, thanks to that full leather build. Just things to consider! Alright, so I just got the Air Jordan 11 Retro 'Gratitude' in hand. First impression? The patent leather mudguard is "super" glossy and the build quality feels premium. The box is the classic flip-top, which is always a nice touch. At $225 USD, you expect solid execution, and so far, it delivers. The shape is iconic, no doubt. Comparing it to my other Jordans... The 11 retro feels more substantial than a 1 or a 3. It's less bulky than a 4 or a 5. It occupies a unique space - elegant yet sporty. The cushioning setup is different; it's not as pillowy as a 13, but more responsive than a 6, in my opinion. Each Jordan has its vibe, and the 11's is just undeniably cool. Alright, so I just got the Air Jordan 11 Retro 'Gratitude' in hand, and wow. The box is heavy, the quality feels premium right away. Unboxing these, the patent leather cut is super clean and that matte upper is a nice twist. At $225 USD, you expect this level from Jordan Brand. First impression? They look even better in person than in pics.
