Also, if you're looking for a pure performance basketball shoe... there are better modern options. This is a lifestyle and culture icon first. Think about how you'll "really" wear them. So, box opened, tried on, verdict in. The Gamma Blue 11s live up to the hype for me. They're a special piece in the Jordan series archive. If you connect with this model and this color story, you won't be disappointed. Just manage your comfort expectations, and enjoy one of the coolest 11s ever made. Now, a potential con for some people: the fit. The Mens Air Jordan 11 Retro Gamma Blue runs a bit narrow, especially in the midfoot. If you have wider feet, you might want to go up a half-size or be prepared for a break-in period. Also, that shiny patent leather can crease... it's just part of the character, but it's not for everyone who wants a pristine look forever. Comparing it to other Jordans, the "air jordan 11 retro" "Gamma Blue" has a different vibe than, say, a Bred 4. It’s dressier, sleeker. The comfort is different too – less bulky, more streamlined. It’s a nice change of pace in a rotation. The fit is consistent with other 11s I've owned. A real benefit is its ability to bridge sporty and smart styles effortlessly.
