Jordan Brand has hit us with another low top of the Air Jordan 11 just in time for summer.
Using a black, white, and metallic silver color scheme with a milky translucent outsole, this colorway of the iconic silhouette really doesn’t have a whole lot going on — it’s simple.
Apparently, these are supposed to pay homage to Jordan’s playing days on the diamond with the Birmingham Barons. Other than the black and white color scheme, there isn’t much here representing the minor league club. Plus, Nike.com has these listed simply as the ‘Black/White’ Air Jordan 11 Lows.
These are set to release in full family sizing on May 27 for $175 on Nike.com and Jordan Brand retailers like Sneaker Politics.

Do you say that because you truly dislike them or because there’s no hype around them?
they look weird in lows. I remembered when they first came out way back in highschool and nobody could afford them nor get them. a rich kid got a pair but they were in lows and we got talking on why his pair are lows rather than the casual mids. to get the long story short, since we were kids back then and nobody else get to wear the 11s, we were impressed since he was the only kid that has them although a part of us kept wondering, “why Lows?”. it’s like it’s a Coke Diet but not Coke enough. they were nice to look at though because of the B/W patent leather design. I was wearing AirMax 2s and Converse React (Kevin Johnson) back then coz those are the only one’s my parents can afford.
I don’t dig Jordan 11 lows, so sorry.
Would’ve been better with the regular patent leather. With this, everyone will tell you “Hey, your Jordans are dirty”.
