The Jordan 11 Retro Releases in Platinum Tint
The AJ 11 is arguably one of the most popular and beloved Air Jordan styles of all time. This hugely successful Tinker Hatfield-designed model represents Michael Jordan's return to the NBA in 1996 and was worn by MJ during the record-breaking 72-10 season when the Chicago Bulls won their fourth NBA title. It's also notable for being the first Air Jordan to feature Cordura nylon, a carbon fiber plate and foot-conforming patent leather.
The on-court debut of the Air Jordan XI Concord set off a frenzy of anticipation until the sneaker hit retailers later that year. Other colorways and silhouettes soon followed.
In 2000, Air Jordan 11 Retro releases kicked off—and the collection is still going strong with new iterations introduced almost every year. The Air Jordan 11 lineup—OG or Retro, mid or low, "Concord," "Bred" or "Space Jam"—is sought after by sneakerheads everywhere.
Jordan 11 Retro Platinum Tint 2018
In a major detour from the classic Air Jordan 11 Retro design by getting rid of its shiny patent overlay for the Platinum Tint colorway, released on October 27, 2018. In its place, this mid-top sneaker incorporates a nubuck and ballistic mesh construction. In place of a White upper, this shoe goes with a slightly different hue: Platinum Tint. For a touch of contrast, University Red accents pepper the top half of the upper. The shoe's iconic Jordan Jumpman branding is situated on the lateral side of the ankle complimented by thin University Red detailing on the outside of the ankle. Another University Red Jumpman logo can be found on the bottom of the shoe under its translucent White textured tread.
