It's just part of the deal with this model. Also, if you have a really wide foot, the fit through the midfoot might feel restrictive at first. It breaks in, but it's something to consider before you buy your usual size. Final verdict time. For me, the "air jordan retro 11" is a "strong" recommend, but with caveats. Try a pair on first if you can—"please" mind the fit. Appreciate it for what it is: a legendary, style-defining icon. Don't expect modern performance magic. At $225, you're buying into history and a timeless look. If that speaks to you, you won't be disappointed. It's a "staple" for a reason. Sliding my foot into this pair… the fit is "snug" – like a proper, supportive hug around the midfoot. The cushioning? It's firm but responsive, not super plush like some modern kicks. The patent leather upper does have a bit of a break-in period, for sure. If you like a roomier toe box, maybe go half a size up? Just my two cents. Let’s be real: the "biggest" pro is the design – it’s just "chef's kiss". The con? The price keeps going up. At $225, you're paying for the legacy, not just materials. Compared to general releases, the "air jordan retro 11" just feels more "special". It’s not for minimalists. But if you want a centerpiece shoe, this is a top contender.
