It's gorgeous, but it "will" crease—it's just the nature of the material. If you're super fussy about keeping your sneakers pristine, this might stress you out. Also, the fit can be narrow for some. If you have wider feet, you might wanna try a half-size up. Now, the not-so-perfect stuff. The patent leather creases — it's inevitable, so if that bothers you, be warned. Also, that firm cushioning? Not for everyone. If you're used to Boost or React, these will feel stiff. At $225 USD, it's a premium price for a retro model. The "Jordan series" has more comfortable daily options, let's be real. Sliding these on – wow. The fit of the "Jordan 11 retro" is always snug at first, and the Gamma Blue is no different. The patent leather needs a short break-in, but the cushioning? It's fantastic for all-day wear. Compared to some newer Jordans, the 11’s comfort – especially in the heel – is just legendary, no question about it. Who's this for? Honestly, Jordan collectors first. If you missed the 2013 release, here's your chance. It's also for anyone who loves the 11 silhouette but wants something different from the usual red/black/white combos. The Gamma Blue is a grail for many.
