HOW GOOD ARE THE JORDAN 11 GRATITUDE SNEAKERS?!

[@knag05]

i think we're going to look back in 5 years at how awesome 2023 was for sneakers. lots of good releases and many for retail

[@ActivateBeastMode1]

The fact the wheat 13s are sitting everywhere would have been unfathomable in the 2010s. It's crazy seeing legendary jays sit. Can't complain but still wild

[@adrianbrown8122]

These don’t need hype. Reimagined DMP is 10/10. Leather will last longer. Funny how people passed on this or wanted for under retail 😂 😂 I doubled up on these. Love that Buckets gave it 9.5.

I legit got this for under retail per se lol. I’ve amassed so many points shopping that I had $70 credit. Applied that and got $70 off

If the do go on sale for under retail, it'll be sizes 9.5 and below. That's a big if. Got $20 off in store at Finishline using status coupon.

[@ancientphilosopher]

I actually copped my first pair for under retail. But then I was a clown and bought a second pair from Champs on release day. There’s a nice special feeling to getting them at 9am on release day, being just 4th in line 😊

[@Alton21]

Can’t lie, I like these way more than original DMP. Jordan Brand needs to continue flooding the market.

[@brandonhuffman213]

Said that some where when I first saw em. The leather just makes it that much better.. I take the leather over the hangtag .

[@lowlyfesocks]

These "Gratitudes" are crazy clean! It was definitely a no brainer doubling up. That tumbled leather upper is BUDDUUHHH!! 🔥🔥

i’m 45yrs old, and this is the first AJXI that I can comfortably wear all day. The Cool Grey was a great runner up, but.. this was so pleasing to learn after having them on the last two weeks.

[@DK_Raiders117]

These are are definitely distinguished! Better in hand and I didn’t think that was gonna be the case. Not an everyday wear, but pull them out for special occasions, family events and nights out with the guys.

[@lario1030]

💯💯🔥

[@Andrew77MUFC]

Personally big fan of these , 11s & 12s my favorite all time silhouettes so any super clean colorway on those models is a must cop , these Gratitudes very much included. Personally i like the OG DMP XIs slightly better but these are close enough and had to grab them. Plus holiday XIs def one of the sneaker events of the year and they often hit different when its a super clean colorway like these. I've had mine in hand a few weeks since the EA on them , wore them a few times already and liked them even more in person. I was able to cop for my younger bro's size on release day as well. Just super clean colorway on one of my favorite models , def one of my favorite Jordans of the year. XIs just have it all for me - classiness , a statement sneaker and the nostalgia factor as well.

[@jimmarkley9360]

And lots of gratitude to you guys.. hands down the best sneaker review show on KZbin ! Keep up the amazing work guys

[@sammiecheco6239]

Just got into sneakers this year and I don’t know where I’ve been all these years but anyway… I just picked up my pair and, being a female, just love the look of them and for some weird reason they make me feel as special as I did as a little girl when ever my mom bought me and my sisters little patent leather shoes except these are super comfy cuz they’re sneakers 😬 They get a 10/10 from me. Don’t know how much I will wear 11s but definitely love that silhouette for sure!

[@ChanceJolivette]

i love the 11's, if anything the reason why I don't wear them as much is just simply not wanting to mess them up I kinda wait til a nice occasion to pull them out rather than just a casual store run

[@ricardorobi9247]

Surprisingly like these more than the OGs specifically because of the leather. When announced I thought it would be a fail but I’ve come around.

[@2009kdizzle]

Missed the concords so I had to grab these. I don’t wear the Jordan 11s that often. They are an occasional shoe for me as I’m always in some AJ1-6’s

[@1hundredz]

The fact that is the 1st time is a all white leather instead of the white nylon that is difficult to clean and keep it looking white over time made me get these pair. A lot easier to clean and keep them looking new over time is a win win for me I double up on these 🔥 they a 10 For me

[@donovanharris557]

I agree I would go to a 1 or a 3 before I go to the 11s for similar reasons. I personally wouldn’t go to a 4 just because they’re not the most comfortable Jordan. I love 4s. They’re just not a choice I would jump to first. The Jordan 11 is definitely my favorite Jordan silhouette. That sneaker is just so pretty it’s hard to want to wear them all the time. It’s like you want to cherish them so much that you want to be selective wearing them. I usually always try to double up too on 11s and still feel that way. I would have to give these a 10/10 though. I respect the OG and still remember seeing them in person for the 1st time in middle school but that leather upper is PERFECT! The sneaker will last way longer! I think this stands alone from the others and how this sneaker is built it definitely deserves a perfect score. I love it!

[@jinobass]

Yo da new 4 Breds are super comfy

[@carl_k]

I definitely won’t wear them as much as I used to but there’s just certain kicks I always need a fresh pair of…10/10 imo

[@toughcatcompany]

By far, one of my favorites. Hella comfortable and true to size. Just love 'em!

[@317itsyaboiiii]

11s are one of my top 3 silhouettes. I agree they dont look bettwr w more wears. Especially the icy bottom ones. My favorite 11 is the pantone and i wear for special occasions.

[@jaytaylor2858]

Definitely copped, didn't double up because I might snag those Navy 3s.

[@Djcimofficial]

These were my first W ever on SNKRS app during that shock drop last November. Love the 11’s

[@IlikeOakleystoo]

💯 agree with you on the 11's wear ability. It's a struggle to keep em clean, and yeah they never look better than outta the box.

[@geogeo2551]

Just got mine last week. Pre ordered them, got em as a present ! Very raw brings back childhood three peat . three peat repeat all that memories !!

Like these over the Concords. I'm nostalgic to the prefer the Concords, but I'm breaking away from conventional thinking. The leather upper turned this shoe into the perfect pair

[@jaydontaylor4095]

I just startwd wearing my win like 82's recently theyre so nice

[@davidrulez11]

Great sneaker. Top notch quality and materials. A classic silhouette. Got me a pair as an exclusive member release, been rocking them for two weeks before the official release. 10/10.

[@seajlim]

Agreed. J 11s aren't everyday wears. Kinda more for an occasion. But I would probably wear my 72-10 more if they were more comfortable.

[@speedycerviche3653]

Got em and love em can’t wait to wear them this spring

[@ZebraCamel]

These were a must. Concord is a top 3 jordan colorway for me and a leather version is perfect

[@superproducerd.z7403]

Cool if ya don’t have the concords. Great part about them is if the sole ages yellow, it will compliment the gold hints nicely.

[@stephenl7756]

[@wrxzboost]

this is how snkr releases should be. if you want a pair, you can get a pair. not a fan of $230 for a pair of sneakers, but better than paying resale. i like these, didn't pick them up because I needed to pull back, but will get the down the line. not much hype and reselling at retail - all good to me.

[@S.A.N.503]

Absolutely love that they switched it up and hit us with the buttery leather on this pair. So, fire! I love mt pair so much. I got lucky with basically a perfect pair, too.

[@TheSnappyNappyDugout]

Completely agree about the 11's... the 3s & 4s, with wear, age so gracefully.

[@vaughnminott8523]

The DMP 6 are paying commemoration to MJ’s first championship win; during that season he wore the infrared 6s (hence the name Defining Moment Package). Same for the DMP 11, the Bulls went 72-10 and would capture their 4th championship win. During that season MJ sported the Concord 11 (hence the name DMP 11)

[@justinkenney7326]

I had the Concords when they first came out. I'd rather have these because I always dirty my shoes and the all leather makes it easier to keep clean. Top sneaker for me.

[@thabomboneni2994]

I think they are an instant classic to me, even though Jordan didn't ball in them, they took a classic shoe (Concords/DMP) and made them better!

[@mitchell7309]

I don’t agree with them being better than the concords, I think the ballistic mesh upper actually makes the patent pop more with its visual texture details to compliment the silky smoothness of the patent. And though he didn’t technically play in these it’s just a slightly remixed concord tbh. At first glance it’s basically the same shoe in general and vibe. Nothing captures MJ the man, the myth and the player more than the XI. Classy but visually striking. That’s Jordan, the GOAT.

[@KONGDADDY69]

11/10....my first pair of 11s and I couldn't be happier
