NO WAY THAT SHOE WAS JUST WORN 3 TIMES!!!

My girl wore her pair at least 5 times including tonight and they’re still fresh! Some people are rough on their shoes. Looks like consumer neglect to me.

I got mine early through a shock drop and wore them a few times. And they look just fine. People should also wear their size. The more room you have in the shoe the more it creases. Snug fit is the way to go.

Ive already worn mine a few times and they are totally fine people out here doin the most I swear

Foamer Simpsons are damaged from Stock X

How bout you were that pair in your hands and let us know ! We got 7 days till release so do us that favor !

People be doggin their shoes tho, there's no way his shoes look like that if he just lightly wore them, I don't believe it 🤷

I wore mine three times and the creasing is very alarming. Compared them to my Jubilee and after two years the Jubilee’s look better around the toe box. Smh I thought it was just me.

Bro was doin graffiti, cutting grass and hit licks in them hoes 😂😂 Then turned around and saved $150 bucks usin Fz150 and said he wore em 3 times 😂😂 On a serious note: Dope review!!! I’m hopin my pair don’t do this. My homeboy’s pair came in with a straight line kinda crease in em 🤯. I wore mine twice while it was raining and they still in good shape. Hope it stays that way 😅 Thanx for the review! 🙏🏽 🔥 as always my guy 💯

Mines came with a scuff from Nike . Once I got in hand the Milky sole looked to weird . I sold them asap Concords way better. I knew these were to good to b true especially after foamer Simpson got screwed over from stock x for the first time

Glad i read the comments. I really wanted to pick these up on release but will wait a couple of weeks to see more feedback on how the patent leather on the toebox fares.

I wore mine for the first time last night for a work event. Yes, I’m that guy who wears Jordans with suits! Anyway, the only issue I’m seeing so far is there’s a “bump” inside the shoe where the 2nd vertical lace strap meets the patent leather, which was playing hell on the wide part of my forefoot at the rear of the pinky toe. Didn’t really bother me at first, but it grew more aggravating and painful as the night progressed. Got home and put some padding on that part of the shoe, so that helped. Same on the opposite shoe (right side) but less prominent. I’ll need to step out in them for a whole day to see if the padding will hold up or contributes to the discomfort. Otherwise, I love the shoe.

You reviewers should be wearing these shoes and reviewing them properly for us. Especially for how long you have them before release sometimes.. I wore my shock drop pair for the first time today and they are absolutely fucked lol. The creasing is wild. I would not have purchased them if I would have known. Worn 1 time. I'll send you the pics if you want

I have rocked my cherry 11's which I bought from Milan's Jordan world of flight flagship store on their grand opening in Dec 2022. I've rocked them heavy, real heavy. I didn't get scuff marks and surprising to say I did not get bad creases. Just a little crease but you can't see em at all unless you put your face to the shoe. I hope these gratitude 11's have the same quality control cos I am definitely gonna cop em.

I wore mines twice and i said something to my wife about how soft the patent leather felt compared to my otger 11s. Pointed out to her i had creases already but they not that. Last night was my 2nd time wearing them so ill check em here in a bit.

I worn mine for a week got some creases but not bad still looks good i got no issue

Maybe bro wore them for 2 weeks straight without ever taking them off, and since they didnt leave his feet he only counted that as 1 time worn, and did that 2 more times 😂😂😂

My pair creased on the first wear, doesn’t hold up like other recent 11s (cherries & cool greys)

That dude is Cappin. I’ve worn mine every day for almost 2 weeks and mine look great.

Leather on my jubilles is tough my cool grays are soft They should of used the jubille leather instead

I don't believe that bro!!!

I was able grab another pair a half size up. New pair is much more comfortable. The extra bit of room also allows me to comfortably use the Shoe Doc Foam Shields (soft crease liners), which is doing a great job of mitigating creasing so far.

I been wearing one of my pairs all week and they still look new except for the bottom

I have literally worn mine everyday to work in my office and have no creases and no problem , granted I work in an office building but I have worn them atleast 4 times a week for 9 hrs a day with no complaint

You know after thinking, they been low key showing us they getting cheaper , no slide out box on 11's, and no gold dog tag even tho it came with the 6. They have been getting cheaper every year and raising prices

Im kind of glad now that i didn't hit on the SNKRS Shock Drop or the EA. Cuz im seeing a trend that all the pairs that are messed up were copped from those drops. I copped mine from Finishline and mine are Cherry on QC. I don't feel nothing bad inside, all my paints where they supposed to be. LOL! But i guess well see with the creasing later. Good video bro!

Great review. After watched this video yesterday, my pair of Gratitude has just been delivered today. After about 30 mins of owning it, I have decided to return back to Nike. Simply I just don’t like the mesh being replaced with leather. Though the leather is soft to touch and looks okay, but it just doesn’t suit my taste. I also found number of bad and inconsistent stitchings on the shoe. Too bad to say bye bye to this year’s AJ11. And overall i found that the selected shoe material just doesn’t look premium to me, comparing to my Jubilee pair which looks even more premium than this. - Regards from an AJ11 enthusiast in Malaysia.

Should I go 1/2 size up? How do these compare with recent cool greys for sizing?

I hit on the shock drop and I was happy and when I got the shoes,the right pair was perfect bot the left was damage,the pattern leather from the toe box was curved(dented) I send them back the next day,now if am paying premium price I want a good pair with out this crazy quality issue

I pulled out a size 11 today at work and it already had slight creases on the toe box smh so this might be a huge issue

Mine came with the right shoes’s toe box crooked and patent leather was peeling off. No widow peak on the one shoe either. Major issues. I’m returning them for sure.

I only wore mine twice and already decreased the black part in the front and I didn’t even do no heavy, walking or anything. I would recommend throwing a force field in there, but the force fields are uncomfortable.

Yeah and it really sucks when you buy of the after market 😕 because the return policy is crazy

I have 6 pairs of 11's and none of them have ever creased from the toe box, they all crease from the same spot wich is from the sides, i bought these gratitude 11's and on the first wear i got creasing on the toe box which was hella weird cause u can feel it creasing/ folding right above your toes. I compared them to all my other 11's and the patent leather on the gratitude's is way thinner and flimsier..Mayor L.

I used to wear my shoes Jordan’s retro three blue cement in the rain and nothing would happen to them. They would stay looking brand new now the quality of the material it’s garbage.

My having the same issue i love the Jordan 11 I have never had creasing on the the mid of the toe box, from the the 11s I have normally creasing in the inner side but the creasing in this pair is maybe the worst I have ever experienced

Hit 3 pairs on shock drop. Straight out the box 2 out of 3 DS pairs had wavy creasing on the left toe box of the shoe. Quality control is horrible in these. Patent leather felt cheap and had a gritty feel too it like it had over spray of some sort of chemicals. The 2018 concords patent leather feels thicker and is a way better quality. Was only able to keep one good pair and returned the other two. Now after watching this video about creasing bad after a few pairs contemplating if I should return my last pair. 🤔

Bro wore em 3 times, to play soccer lol

Yeah , worn my shock drop pair 1 time and it’s so thin that patent leather creases so bad

I ended up creasing one of mine reaching for something on my cabinet SMH, but you can't really see it unless you stare at it.

Well, the creasing on mine is pretty bad on the 1st wear on the right shoe and only by walking in the house before going out the door. I entered FLX trying to get a second pair but I’m not sure if should get that second pair.

I had quality problems with these and the cherry 12s. Took me 4 pairs before I found a decent pair of Cherries. Never had issues to this degree before. Hit Gratitudes on SNKRS and the patent leather was wrinkled on the left foot. Hit again on champs, and then restocks on Finish Line and JD sports. Each pair had issues, scratches leather on toe, twisted looking sole, white paint on the back of the sole. This is crazy. We pay our hard earned money, they keep raising prices while lowering the quality and QC. Worst two experiences buying sneakers ever and I’ve been collecting for years.

Definitely different variables for each person, everyone don’t walk the same path in life. 😅

lol nah, I have 11’s that i worn a over a dozen times and only has side creases. QC is just getting way to sloppy

I have the cool grays, the cherry reds and they have not creased and I wear them often but these creases are crazy My left foot is good, but the right has a full crease across.😢

I have not worn mine yet, out of the box i noticed quality control issues. The patent leather is flaking from the edge where they die cut the material.

Yeah I picked my 11s up yesterday and I stuck them on an wore them for 10 mins into walmart and back out an mine have creased already on the left shoe on the toe box

I have passed on these twice now because I have 2 pairs of Concords still on ice and one for toe, luckily!

naw dude was out here drop kicking rocks ain’t no way

Finally someone talked about it I wore mine for one time I look down and it creases smh iam so mad

I wore my pair a half day and mine creased. I returned them. For the price they shouldn’t crease for at least a handful of wears. Not 1 or 2. Shit feels flimsy around the toe box

Got mine from the shock drop and have to return them due to the foam on the inside of the bottom of the tongue being mis cut

Mine look bad after 2 wears too. 😢. I’m used to 11s creasing, but these look cracked way too fast

Why aren't these the reimagined concords? I didn't realize they replaced the mesh with leather. They fixed the biggest issue with the concords. The mesh on them boys turns piss yellow after a few years. I'm super happy with these. I might even double up and have my other pair made into a concord reimagined custom.

Worn mine 4x and walked a lot in them and there’s creasing around the toe but nothing crazy like the one on this video

I worn mine 2 times and my right side is a little creased not bad but I was surprised maybe it’s because of the black patent leather makes the creases pop out ? Idk

Thanks for the video, HGK. I wore mine twice crease protectors, and I have creases in the patent leather. The in fore foot has creasing on the patent leather, and I have a side crease of the patent leather. I thought it was just the 1 shoe, but I have 2 pairs. The patent leather sucks!!! 💯💯💯💯 sending that other pair back. This should could of been a new classic with the leather upper.

He’s done more than just wear the shoes

Just wore my pair today for the first time and for only 3-4 hours walking around the outlets and shocked to see the toe crease as well 🤷🏻‍♂️🤦‍♂️

My pair of Jordan 11 Gratitudes has wrinkles and lines in the black patent leather before i have even worn them 😢. My Jordan11 (72/10's) has the same materials but no lines or wrinkles and the toe box feels alot more firm.

I just sent a pair back to snkrs, one jumpman was bigger than the other!!!! But i doubled up from footlocker though!!!!

Check the reviews and compare them to your Concords the Patton leather is thinner that’s why they easy creases

My right shoe was creased out the box! I was very disappointed

I posted a comment on someone else's video yesterday about he Q&C issues on the 11s at least someone else is talking about it. Cause I think these were made terribly I've seen at least 30+ people complain about issues with the shoe and if I look deeper I'm sure I can find more. I guess thats what happens when u make a million pairs of shoes ur gonna have at least 100k that have issues.

Every shoe will crease right away. Most cheesy sneakerheads get a size to big and the crease looks worse

Nah that's 🧢 I can honestly speak from experience I got mine early I paid 350 for an early pair and I wore mine 5 times and mine still look brand new I sold my used pair and the person was telling me they still looked brand new

I dang near hit the order button and seen several videos saying the quality had gone down. The patent leather is definitely thinner.

I realized something… I’m a person like a lot of you out there. Our mom bought us air Jordan’s when we were kids. So throughout our teenage years, early twenties, thirties and so on.. we’ve consistently had air Jordan’s. But there is people who parents never bought them air Jordan’s. They wanted them but couldn’t get them. Those People then became older and started buying air Jordan’s when they were adults. Those are the people who are concerned with creases. It’s a very minuscule concern.

I had a issue with mine so I didn't double up but wouldn't buy resell because of bad pairs out there mine up top by Laces a hump on one sneaker probably when I wear them you wouldn't notice but yeah.

To be honest, none of the shoes of today are like on a first dropped and the second time they came out as a retro so I believe some people may have ran across some B grades I don’t see that Shoe messing up all retro patent leather crease regardless, I have mine from way back when trust me, they all crease if it’s a defect in it back to Nike they replace it

Do you buy an iPhone without a case?? The point is buy crease protectors. He wore them to ball in three times or something lol

I’ve worn mine 1st week of shock drop delivery and mine still look like I haven’t worn them

The only 11s worth wearing is the breds. The rest of them look dingy after a few wears, if you don’t have sole protectors. The icy bottoms pick up dirt easily, and now this,the patent leather isn’t strong?…. Crazy

I with the jordan 8 winterize

Wore mine Saturday(1 time)after shock drop maybe 3 hours and had creasing🤣🤦🏻‍♂️

Well whether u wear the shoe once or a hundred times the paint will chip if something scrapes against it. No way around that.

Sorry no major creasing on mines other than small corner crease but that's with all J 11's . Dude is just brutal with his kicks or he has duck feet. But my pair is good and I've worn them at least 7 times.

I have mine from the Shock Drop & now scared to rock em 😭😂

The Patent leather on these is actually real patent leather. Some of our past retro 11's didnt have authentic patent leather. Which sounds surprising. but its true. But on a side note. I've seen a ton of people with this shoe early. And when a lot of these dudes get pairs early. i question whether they are authentic or not. A lot of people like to think they got a plug but they are really getting jerked. And walking around in rep's. i definitely wouldn't hoop in these. but these will hold up just fine for casual wear.

I haven’t worn mines but I tried em on twice , and they already creasing.

That cat tripping he was out straight blacktop hooping in them joints.

I have the same worn them couple of times and long distance they still clean , the guy that was wearing it is either messy or did something to them on purpose

There’s definitely something not adding up. Looks like dude got into a fight with those on or something.

I got a pair the left shoe was dented in on the top of the toe box I was like no way I got rid of them

I wore mines three times with with the toe crease blockers and still got creases

I have no issues after 1 wear thankfully

That's why I buy all my Jordans on dhgate now, why pay $200 and the quality suck if you can buy for dhgate for $25 with a better quality

I hate how the tumbled leather Bert’s from pair to pair Nike needs to do something if we dropping this bread

I call 🧢 I haven’t worn my yet but I hope my pair from exclusive access doesn’t crease on the toe box

I’m calling cap on 3 wears, unless that pair was just crazy bad quality. However everyone should know the 11 creases and there’s little you can do. Wear your shoes and own those creases. I pass on the 11’s cause as another commenter said if you go bigger you’ll get even more creasing. 11’s are not friendly for wide footers.

so wear testers confirmed the patent leather is actually more authentic than previous retros, that patent leather was synthetic, gratitudes is real leather with the shiny layer on top, you can see the leather fibers from the side so they actually brought it for once, people just used to the cheaper/synthetic stuff 🤷🏾‍♂️

Pass on those don’t like upper or bottoms maybe later grab maybe whether get them white navy 3’s GTown…

Put force fields for creasing

Quality on mines is great

Make another video before Dec 9 to confirm the fact about this quality issue of Gratitude

Mines came with a small scuff mark and scratch like they had already been worn Nike don't seem to give a dam about us consumers they just send us anything and that's crazy but even though the scratch and scuff mark not that visible I just know their there but I kept sneakers anyways cause they sold out everywhere and I don't wanna pay big resell money and receive fakes that are floating around my retro 11 low Tuxedos from 2013 has better quality than the Gratitudes they look newer to me and they're over 11 years old 🤷🏿‍♂️

Mines came out perfect from shock drop

Mine came in with a big a** dent on the right shoe toe box

people going nuts about creases just buy plastic or clothe shoes, how do you get leahter that holds shape but dont crease.

Just returned mine aster ONE wear. Creasing is terrible
