Just like when MJ first rocked it in 1995, the Air Jordan XI continues to make a statement wherever it shows up. This latest women’s edition is elevated with luxury materials, marked by a variety of screen-printed animal patterns.
The colorway, which launches in women’s and kids sizing, comes dressed in contrasting shades of black and white, with a metallic Jumpman on the collar and hits of red branding on the tongue and heel. The elevated materials and premium style add a new chapter to the design stories that make the Air Jordan XI a footwear legend and cultural icon.
Retail Launch Date: November 26, 2021
Price: $220 (Adult), $95 (Pre-School), $80 (Toddler)
HISTORY OF THE AIR JORDAN XI
When Tinker Hatfield created the Air Jordan XI, he employed his trademark iconoclastic approach by using new materials and never-before-seen technology. The inventive design, complete with best-in-class performance, comfort, and an unprecedented touch of luxury, debuted as MJ returned from his first retirement.
The eye-grabbing shoe put the league (and the shoe game) on notice. The next year, he wore the shoe while leading the Bulls to a record-setting 72-win season en route to his fourth MVP and fourth NBA championship.
The combination of premium materials, a uniquely creative design and MJ’s on-court dominance while donning the shoe contributed to the perfect storm that led to the birth of what is now a cultural icon. Fearless ones around the world continue to rock the Air Jordan XI — the shoe that embodies elegance and epitomizes excellence; the sneaker that many now consider to be the most beloved and coveted in the game.
