Sneaker Of the Week

This Weeks Sneaker Picked by Soul conn Member De'rek is the Air Jordan 11 .
The 11's were released in 1995 and is def a very popular Jordan. The Air Jordan XI heralded a triple comeback; Jordan’s return to the NBA, the return of designer Tinker Hatfield, and disappointingly, the return of the unpopular clear soles that yellowed with age.(I LOVED THE SOLE)..

While the design of this model was premium, the quality was sadly lacking and despite the release of low-top versions, the Jordan XI was not the most popular of all the Air Jordan shoes at first, But When the Jordan XI's were retroed in 2000-2001 they became the fastest selling, most popular Jordan retros of all.


"Defintly one of the dopest sneakers of all time. Or otherwise know as the come back jays. The combination of comfort and style has yet to be matched. The first successful shoe to introduce patent leather and upper mesh, along with the also sexy icey sole:). I remember waiting in line at like 6am on a school day to cop my second pair blk/red. The blk/wht concord's dropped earlier that year! (1995-1996) . I also remeber being the person to rock my joints to school early.what a feeling, it kinda adds to a young mans swagger.hahaha The whole day you walk different. I eventually had to just put my pair on ice because of all the fakes that were dropin and peoples ignorence to factory varients now this sneaker I held on to is worth up to 400$ and up.most def one of my favorite sneakers of all time." - De'rek
