The black upper with that white midsole and icy blue outsole? It's a timeless combo. On camera and in person, the materials have a nice sheen. Compared to some recent Jordan releases, the 11 Retro always has that dress-shoe-meets-basketball aesthetic that just works. Final take? If you've always wanted an AJ11, this is a great one to get. The quality is there, the colorway is easy to wear, and it just feels special. It's one of those shoes that, every time you put it on, you remember why the Jordan 11 Retro is so beloved. Definitely a recommend from me. On foot, this 'Gratitude' colorway is so versatile. The black nubuck with that crisp white midsole? It pops in natural light and looks great on camera. The patent leather adds that perfect dress-shoe-meets-basketball aesthetic. Wearing this Air Jordan 11 Retro, you get tons of compliments - it's just a timeless look that works with almost anything. On foot now, and the fit is true to size for me. The patent leather provides nice structure, and the full-length Air unit gives that familiar, comfortable cushioning. It's not the most plush shoe ever, but for a retro, the comfort is solid. The lockdown is secure without being too tight. A classic feel, for sure.
