It can crease, and it's not the most flexible material. If you prefer a super soft, broken-in feel immediately, this might feel a bit stiff at first. Also, the price point at $225 is steep for a casual wear shoe. It's an investment piece, not an impulse buy. Now, a potential con: the fit can be tricky. If you have a wider foot, that patent leather mudguard might feel restrictive or even cause pressure points during break-in. Also, the traction pattern can pick up dust easily on indoor floors. It's not a major flaw, but something to be aware of. This isn't a shoe for everyone's foot shape or for serious on-court play anymore. Now, the not-so-great part. The price is steep—we're talking $225 USD. For some, the fit might be too narrow. Also, that patent leather can crease, which bothers some collectors. It's not the most comfortable shoe for all-day walking compared to modern lifestyle sneakers. If you want max comfort or a wide fit, this might not be your first choice. Bottom line: Try them on if you can for sizing. The comfort and style are top-tier for a retro. Just go in knowing the patent leather will crease and the sole may yellow. But worn-in 11s have their own character. A solid cop for any sneaker rotation.
