Air Jordan 11 Suede Details

It was only a matter of time before Jordan Brand’s lifestyle sensibilities landed on the Air Jordan 11, transforming the patent leather gem through the use of brand new materials with the upcoming Air Jordan 11 Suede release for this coming Holiday 2016 season. This tonal grey pair has an interesting story behind it too, and while we can’t pin down an actual release date just yet, you can expect this premium pair to arrive before year’s end.

The Air Jordan 11 Suede started out as a project through Jordan Brand’s Make-A-Wish experience, as Rhome Simpkins, a kid born with Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome, was the proud recipient of one of the first pairs. That might explain early looks featuring exclusive ‘RS’ initials embossed on the heel. The unconventional creation swaps out the signature Cordura mesh upper and patent leather mudguard with a premium hairy suede throughout while a pre-aged translucent outsole unit adds a cream effect to the bottom for a unique twist.

What do you think of the Air Jordan 11 Suede? Stay tuned for more release info in the future right here on Sneaker News and know that this upcoming premium retro is rumored to be priced at $400 to match the brand’s Pinnacle and Premium sensibilities. More photos below.
