It's gorgeous, but it "will" crease. That's just the nature of this material. If you're someone who wants a shoe to stay pristine forever, this might give you anxiety. For me? I think the character it adds is worth it. The "Gamma Blue" colorway is just too iconic to keep in the box. On feet, in natural light? The Gamma Blue "pops". The patent leather reflects light so well, and that icy outsole just adds a whole other dimension. This isn't a shy colorway—it commands attention. Compared to, say, a Concord or a Bred colorway, this "Jordan 11 Retro" feels more flashy and modern, while keeping that timeless silhouette we all love. Fit-wise, they run pretty true-to-size for me. The lockdown is secure, thanks to the laces & that padded interior. However, if you have a really wide foot, the patent leather can feel a bit restrictive across the forefoot - something to consider. For most, it's a comfortable, true Jordan 11 fit. Who are these for? Sneakerheads who missed the 2013 release, for sure. Also, anyone who loves bold colorways & the AJ11 silhouette. If you appreciate basketball history & design, the "mens air jordan 11 retro gamma blue" is a must-consider. It's a piece of wearable art, not just a shoe. Great for casual wear, not for serious balling.
