Nike air jordan 11 : Comparing it to other "Jordan" models? The "Air Jordan 11" sits differently [hy71jwe1]

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. On foot now, and wow. The cushioning is plush right out of the box – that full-length Air unit is no joke. The fit is snug, but not overly tight, which I "love". Compared to, say, a Jordan 1, this "Air Jordan 11" feels way more modern and comfortable for all-day wear. It's definitely not the lightest shoe, but the support (especially around the ankle) feels premium. On foot now, and I gotta say, the feel is… unique. It's not super plush like modern shoes. The fit is snug—"really" secure around the midfoot, which I love for casual wear. But if you have a wider foot, the break-in might be tough. The "Air Jordan 11" is more about that stable, locked-down sensation than cloud-like comfort, honestly. Let's talk about that carbon fiber shank plate. It's not just for looks—it provides awesome torsional stability. That’s a major "advantage" for all-day wear. However, the full-length Air-Sole unit is firmer than Zoom Air. If you want maximum cushioning for, say, all-day standing, this "might" not be your top pick. It's a performance tech from a different era.
