The build quality feels identical to the men's releases. Versus a more performance-focused model like the 34 or 35, the Grand Finale is purely about style and legacy comfort. It’s a lifestyle shoe first. If you love the 11 shape, this is a fantastic, clean addition to that Jordan series lineage. Sliding these on... "wow". The fit is fantastic. It's a women's size, but it's TTS for me. The patent leather collar provides that secure, "legendary" Jordan 11 lockdown, and the full-length Air unit gives that plush, responsive cushioning I love. They're not the lightest shoes ever, but for a lifestyle & casual ball shoe, the comfort level is a major "pro" for the wmns air jordan 11 grand finale. Who should "skip"? If you need ultra-plush, modern cushioning, look elsewhere. If you dislike heavier shoes or the feel of patent leather, this isn't for you. Also, if you're on a tight budget, $225 is a lot. There are other Jordan models that offer a different experience for less. To wrap up: The "wmns air jordan 11 grand finale" gets a big thumbs up from me for style and execution. It's a premium, classic sneaker experience. Just go in knowing what the Jordan 11 is—and isn't. If you love the model, you'll love this colorway. That's my real, honest take on this release from the legendary "Jordan series".
