Vs. a AJ1, it's more performance-oriented. Vs. a AJ4, it's dressier. The 11's height and glossy finish make a statement the 3s or 5s don't. It's its own thing. A major "pro" is that it elevates any simple fit instantly. A "con"? That patent leather can crease, which bothers some. Just unboxed the "Air Jordan 11 Retro". The silhouette is "iconic" - no other way to say it. The craftsmanship here is noticeable; stitches are clean. Trying them on... the comfort is impressive. Good arch support and that padded collar hugs your ankle. They look "even better" on foot. Placing it next to a "Jordan 5", the "11" feels more refined and less bulky. "What's great:" Its status as a holiday season legend. "What's not:" The outsole picks up dirt easily. Perfect for collectors and style mavens. Not the best daily beater if you're constantly in messy conditions. So, who should cop the Nike Air Jordan 11? If you appreciate sneaker history, love a versatile silhouette, and want a shoe that always looks sharp, this is for you. It’s a must-have for any Jordan collector. The $225 USD is an investment in a piece of culture that never goes out of style. Initial impression? The "craftsmanship" on this "Nike Air Jordan 11" 'Concord' is "on point". That shiny patent leather "pops" under camera lights — it's a video "dream". On-foot feel is plush, thanks to the full-length Air unit. A definite "pro" is its timeless design; it never goes out of style. The "downside"? That stiff patent leather can "sometimes" crease in a weird way. For $225, it's an investment in a classic. Ideal for anyone wanting a "piece of history". Not so ideal if you hate keeping your sneakers "pristine".
