The tech is older. Also, if you're super rough on your shoes, that patent leather will show wear. And for pure on-court performance? There are definitely better, more modern basketball shoes available now. Another thing to consider: the traction. The herringbone pattern is great on clean courts or pavement, but it can pick up dust. Not a dealbreaker, but worth noting if you're planning to play ball in them indoors. For casual wear, it's totally fine. Major pros? The timeless design is number one. This Air Jordan 11 Retro is simply iconic. The materials, especially the patent leather, are durable and easy to wipe clean. They also provide excellent ankle support without being restrictive. For a retro, the build quality on this pair feels consistent. It's a shoe you can wear for years and it'll still look sharp. That's a huge plus in my book. Let's talk about the on-foot feel. Slipping these on, the fit is true to size for me. The cushioning from that full-length Air-Sole unit? It's firm but supportive – not super plush like some modern shoes, but that's the classic Jordan 11 Retro feel. The carbon fiber shank plate does its job for stability. The overall package feels... "substantial", but not overly heavy on foot.
