Air Jordan 11

Previous
Next

The Air Jordan 11 is Michael Jordan’s eleventh signature shoe and one of the most iconic models in the Jordan line. Another one of Tinker Hatfield’s designs, the Air Jordan 11 debuted in 1995, but MJ would reach for the AJ 11 as his weapon of choice as he chased, and won his 4th NBA championship. 

The Jordan 11 hit stores in 1996, and they quickly became one of the most beloved designs. The sneaker features a combination of ballistic mesh and patent leather on the upper, an outsole with both solid and translucent rubbers, and a carbon fiber torsional plate. The shoe also features a full-length air unit, housed within a phylon midsole for extra cushion. 

The Jordan 11 is easily one of the best on-court performing retro Jordans and one of the more highly-coveted models in Jordan’s signature footwear lineage. It’s also rumored to be Michael Jordan’s favorite shoe. 

AVERAGE RETAIL PRICE: $220

Air Jordan 11 Retro ’72-10′ Gets An On-Foot Look

Well, I wasn’t initially planning on picking up a pair… Who knew the Air Jordan 11 would look so nice in premium materials? The strange part is that the materials aren’t even my favorite part of the shoe. It’s the damn outsole. Changing the outsole from red to clear just made the shoe super clean looking. Don’t get me wrong,
