All Air Jordans are attention grabbers, but no model stops collectors in their tracks like the Air Jordan 11. Each year, the sneaker calendar is highlighted by the holiday Air Jordan 11 Mid release, which have been preceded by spring low-top drops since 2011. 20 years after its original release, the patent-wrapped classic is everything Michael Jordan and Tinker Hatfield believed it would be.
Counting all versions, the Air Jordan 11 has been released in about 30 colorways since its original launch. What's shocking is that at least 50 more samples exist that never made it to the production line— most of which are listed in the gallery below.
