The Air Jordan 2011 ‘Year of the Rabbit’ received a warm welcome and sold-out release in its initial drop in China. It certainly makes a strong case for making this year’s Sneaker News Top 30, and that’s largely in part due to the great colorway and details of this Air Jordan 2011 variety. Here’s a closer look at the fine details of the Air Jordan 2011; first, we have an up-close look at the warrior-inspired mudguard, which features an animalistic yet refined imposed graphic by way of pressed/molded leather. Another great detail is the lightweight mesh window, located at the ankle of the upper; during our interview Tom Luedecke, co-designer of the Air Jordan 2011, it was revealed that the mesh ankle window serves a technical purpose as well as an aesthetic detail. Finally, we have a close-up look at the Jumpman logo on the bottom sole, which also allows us a look at the gold speckles embedded into the translucent outsole. All these details can be seen below, so take a look at this year’s China-inspired Jordans courtesy of US10, and if you’ve been wanted to add these to your collection, you can expect these to hit select Jordan Brand retailers in the U.S. on February 19th, or you can pick up a pair now on eBay.
