Air Jordan 2011 White/Black-Anthracite
2011 is here! Which in turn means that the Air Jordan 2011 are here as well, if you haven’t already guessed that from our little teaser that is. It would seem that every year Jordan brand’s goals are to consistently innovate with every shoe they make both with style and functionality, and they might have succeeded with the 2011. Last Fall a few pics leaked of the 2011 and I know that initial impression made might not have been the best for those super traditional Jordan-heads (like myself) but I must say that after getting a good look at these I am thoroughly impressed by the time, effort and execution of these sneakers.
RELEASING: Saturday, February 19th 2011
The Air Jordan 2011 is the first basketball sneaker to ever include the patina leather. The upper of the shoe is wrapped with one piece of a hand crafted Patina leather that comes embossed with a modified Elephant print which is sure to wear in with it’s own unique fades and finishes over time. The abstract Elephant print seem a little reminiscent of tribal war paint which is a consistent with the “Warrior’s Mentality” inspirations guided the sneakers look and functional elements.
Following with the “Warrior” concept that initially sparked the theme of sneaker Jordan asks the wearers of the sneakers to “Choose Your Weapon” with the choice of 2 uniquely different midsoles. The first of the 2 is the “Quick” (Blue) midsoles which is equipped with zoom forefoot and heel air bags for a lightweight and super responsive step. While the “Explosive” (Red) midsoles which comes with a 3/4 air bag bedding that makes for a super cushioned for a more explosive step.
As Jordan brand continues to push the envelope with sneaker technology and trends they also make sure to consistently push their own staple designs. It might seem like a small touch but one of my favorite parts of the Jordan 2011 would have to be the 3 dimensional Jumpman logo that is found at the tongue of the right shoe and the rear of both shoes. I’ve always been a sucker for detail and these shoes seems to be flooded with them. But I’ll let you find out for yourselves.
