It's more structured, more technical. The lockdown is superior. Versus an AJ3? The 11 is sleeker and less bulky. That carbon fiber shank plate gives serious stability the 3 doesn't have. For ball or for style, the 11 brings a unique combo of tech and classic looks to the "Jordan series". On feet now, and the fit is "snug" – but in a good, supportive way. The patent leather cage does a great job holding your midfoot. They're not the lightest shoes ever, but you feel that quality. Compared to, say, an "Air Jordan 1", the comfort level here is way higher right out of the box. That's a major "plus" for all-day wear. Alright, let's talk about the Nike Air Jordan 11 'Cool Grey'. Unboxing these feels special / every time. That icy blue outsole / just pops. On feet, the fit is true to size for me, and the lockdown is fantastic. Compared to a Jordan 1? It's a totally different, more performance-oriented feel. Major pro: timeless style. Con? The price point, at $225, is steep for a casual wearer. I'd recommend these to any 90s basketball fan. Okay, initial thoughts on the "Air Jordan 11": The shape is just so "distinctive". You can spot it from a mile away. Wearing them, the cushioning is firm but comfortable – you feel that classic Air unit. In terms of looks on camera, the reflective qualities of the patent leather are "insane". Compared to an AJ1, they're a much more structured, "built" shoe. I love them for lifestyle wear, but true ballers might find the traction pattern a bit dated for serious play. A solid pickup for your rotation.
