Nike air jordan 11 : Who is this "really" for? I'd say "collectors", first & foremost, & "style-focused" folks who want a "definitive" sneaker in their rotation [vwbeepax]

The "Nike Air Jordan 11" 'Platinum Tint' ($220) is a "perfect" example – a "clean", wearable colorway. It's "not" for someone seeking "maximal", all-day "squishy" comfort. Think "style" over "ultimate" coziness. That's the "honest" take. Who should maybe skip it? If you need a wide toe box or have very flat feet, the snug fit and arch of this Nike Air Jordan 11 might not be for you. Also, if you're on a tight budget, there are more affordable Jordans. This is a premium-priced, premium-feeling product. Conversely, if you're looking for a ultra-lightweight, modern performance basketball shoe or a daily beater you don't mind trashing, "maybe" look elsewhere. The "Air Jordan 11" has a certain prestige—you’ll probably baby it a bit. It's a statement piece, not necessarily a gym bag shoe. Let's talk about the Air Jordan 11 'IE' low. Different vibe from the classic high-top! Opening the box, the mesh upper is a standout – much more breathable. Slip them on, and wow, they're noticeably lighter. Perfect for summer. The pro here is definitely the unique look and comfort for warmer weather. The con? You lose some of that iconic high-top ankle support. If you compare it to the OG Air Jordan 11, it's a totally different wearing experience. Priced around the same $225 mark, I'd say grab these if you want 11 style with a low-profile feel. Not for purists who need the high-top.
