These are the Retro 11 "Cool Grey" This shoe has so much history is crazy so I’m going to give you guys a briefing to what’s behind this iconic shoe to start its designer Tinker Hatfield designed the Jordan XI and it featured patent leather for the first time on a basketball shoe. The upper was made of a polymer–coated, thin nylon ballistic mesh material. The collar and tongue were padded for max ankle comfort. The translucent outsole lay atop a full-length carbon fiber shank plate which provided extra spring.
The shoe also included a full-length Air-Sole unit for maximum cushioning. MJ wore the black/varsity royal/white version in the movie Space Jam. Jordan also wore the same "Air Jordan XI Space Jam" shoe in the NBA playoffs. Many Brand Jordan athletes wore the AJ XI over the years. Also recognize that while MJ was wearing the Air Jordan XI, he was elected an All-Star for the 10th time, the All-Star game MVP for the second time, scoring champion for the eighth time, and was again league MVP. The Bulls went on and won the NBA title for the fourth time, and as he was for the previous three championships, Jordan was again the Finals MVP.
