I already know what you’re thinking. These Air Jordan XI (11) Samples look just like the retro releases from 2001. That’s where you’re wrong. The colorway may be exactly the same, but there’s one huge difference…on these samples, there’s a translucent Jordan logo on the tongue. The retros have a plain tongue, and the samples look so much better because of the logo. Any collector would be happy to have these, especially in this pristine condition (peep the icy soles).

On opening night of the NBA season, Ray Allen suited up against the Cleveland Cavalier wearing a Player Exclusive Air Jordan XI (11) similar to the one seen here. Both feature a white and gold design to match the Boston Celtics jersey, but for the PE Allen wore the other night against the San Antonio Spurs, it is composed of less green than the opening night model and sports an icy sole. From the looks of it, there is no green on the Air Jordan XI and only consists of a white base with gold trim. For a closer look at Ray Allen’s Player Exclusive Air Jordan XI, check the jump.

Brining back to the old days, the Original Air Jordan 11 (XI) Concords was worn by Michael Jordan back in 1995 in the semi finals. Sadly, each game Jordan wore the Original Air Jordan 11 (XI) Concords he was fined $5,000.
Michael Jordan continued to wear the Original Air Jordan 11 (XI) Concords for two more games, then switched shoes. Since the OG Air Jordan 11 (XI) Concords was a Black and White shoe, and the whole Chicago Bulls team wore Black sneakers, this caused the fines.

The Air Jordan 11 are loved by many sneaker enthusiasts and are always a sell out. Michael Jordan was now back in the NBA, and the Air Jordan XI was his shoe for the 1995-1996 season. But before Michael Jordan wore the model, Tinker had to design them.
Tinker Hatfield thought that Nike should pull out all the stops and make a shoe out of materials that had never been used in a basketball shoe. At first, Tinker was thinking of using some high-end nylons, but good thing he changed his mind. Tinker wanted the Air Jordan 11 to look like a convertible, with a shiny body, so that is why the Air Jordan XI had patent leather.
Not only was it the patent leather on the Air Jordan XI made them special, but the addition of a lightweight Phylon midsole with a full-length Air-Sole unit and full-length carbon fiber plate, as well as being supportive. But sadly, there were some defects in them.
For the look of the shoe itself, Tinker was (like always) thinking of some inspirations. If you’re an artist, then anything can inspire you, so when Tinker saw a yellow lawn mower you wonder how he fit that into the Jordan 11. According to Tinker: “There are designers out there designing lawn mowers to look like sports cars.”.In 1995-96 playoffs, Michael had a bad spill wearing the AJ XI, and the reason being is poor traction. Also the midsole would get creases very fast.
When the Air Jordan 11 came out in 1995 they sold for $124.99. Three mids were released, and two I.E. lows (which sold for $115.00). Only five pairs of the Air Jordan XI “Space Jams” were made for Michael, for the movie Space Jam. Five colorways re-released in 2001-2002 going for $125.00. Eight Air Jordan XI lows were released in 2001 which sold for $120.00, and two I.E. lows were released in 2003 $119.00. In 2006, a Defining Moments Package was released which contained the Air Jordan XI and Air Jordan VI.
