By now you are well aware of the upcoming Retro of the Air Jordan XI (11) Cool Grey, but here’s a first detailed look at the adult size version. Most of what we’ve shown you was in kids sizes and clearly the mens version isn’t much different. The overall shape of the shoe is identical to the most recent XI releases (25th Anniversary and Space Jam) and the ice sole does indeed have a blue-ish tint. So what about the packaging? Would it be wise to expect something similar to the Space Jam XI – perhaps a two-toned grey-on-grey slide-out box with solid shoe trees – or just a simple box from JB? With a $175.00 price tag, it sure would be nice. Check out the detailed pics of the mens Cool Grey XI colorway after the jump and let us know your unique idea for Cool Grey packaging. via MS.

We do need a new box! All the 11z should come in special boxes! it makes it harder for the bootleggers! I really dont care about tha price tag tho! if the shoe is $400 a pair, and i like it, then i will cop it! I do it for Gucci! y not do it for Jordan???????

COPPED
August 3rd, 2010 at 1:50 pm
LOL! Its called Hard work!
August 3rd, 2010 at 1:55 pm
clear soles look better… im pretty sure im still guna cop, but I hate what they doing to these cool grey's. its probably to make the sole last longer and avoid it from turning yellow, but thats apart of the game man, keep 'em OG
August 3rd, 2010 at 2:15 pm
I'm mad they didn't make the soles blue on the all white anniversaries. I've only worn mines twice and I swear they are getting yellower by the second. JB makes no sense, why would they put the blue soles on the kids size but not the adults, what sense does that make? They do this backwards stuff on purpose. As far as these cool greys, not my thing – I don't care if they are 11's, grey sneakers aint me. People are just hopping on them because of hype.
August 3rd, 2010 at 2:21 pm
yes ice water!!11s are my favorite jordan so just like impalalt1 i will most def cop!!!!!
August 3rd, 2010 at 2:25 pm
Fuck that.. If tinting the soles keeps them from yellowing quick then im #triple super down..
As long as the soles are clear.. We aint in the early 2000's no more so of course these arent gonna look OG..
August 3rd, 2010 at 2:50 pm
Filthy
August 3rd, 2010 at 2:54 pm
throwing up……these are SICK!!!! WOW
August 3rd, 2010 at 2:57 pm
Most overrated shoe of all time. i mean c''mon really its not that great and all you guys hype has caused a $25 price increase. I can see the hype for the space jams but not these.
August 3rd, 2010 at 3:05 pm
i dont if im going to get these or the flints 13's
August 3rd, 2010 at 3:17 pm
im sure they switch little things here and there because of bootleggers. almost every popular retro has something that is different from the OG – in this case the blue sole.
August 3rd, 2010 at 3:23 pm
these are way over hyped mj didnt even wear these back in the day
August 3rd, 2010 at 3:26 pm
yea im a lil iffy on da flints. ill problaby just get the olympic 7's nd da cool greys. but the playoff 13's are a must!
August 3rd, 2010 at 3:27 pm
why were 25th anny's 150.00
August 3rd, 2010 at 3:27 pm
aint nothin like braggin about buyin a pair of kicks on a sneaker website were talkin about jordans not gucci and no jordan is worth 400 dollars dont care what anybody says my foot steps better be gold for 400 dollars….u may work hard but nobody really cares that u drop 400 on a pair or kicks if anything it makes people sick
August 3rd, 2010 at 3:34 pm
nike makes billions of dollars a year i dont see how they cant make a sole where it doesnt yellow or lose its color my oreo 6s and carmine cdp are ds and the color on them is fading fast
August 3rd, 2010 at 3:37 pm
ALL 11z are overrated! i rather go 1 up (12z) or 1 down (10z)!!!! But i like this simple colorway! itz SpaceJamz, Breds, Concords, then these! (jus my opinion)
August 3rd, 2010 at 3:38 pm
amen
August 3rd, 2010 at 3:40 pm
who gives a F? its not about if he wore them. its about how hot the kicks are. jeez…ud buy his used underwear on ebay right? just cause he wore em.
August 3rd, 2010 at 3:41 pm
Check the "thumbs" lil homie! and i didnt even vote on my own comment!!!!!!!!! Broke people act like money aint everything! Dont get mad lil homie! step ya game up! FYI: I'm 25, got a kid, OWN A HOUSE (3 rooms) and i drive a 95 SS!! My priorities r straight! Houston, Tx reppin!
August 3rd, 2010 at 3:44 pm
THAT BLUE SOLE SUCKS. keep it clear!!!! the just went from a sure thing to a possibly in my book.
August 3rd, 2010 at 3:47 pm
it would be nice to get the anti-static packaging from the infrared retro 6 pack to keep these J's fresh too!
August 3rd, 2010 at 4:10 pm
Gucci is wack
August 3rd, 2010 at 4:29 pm
fire shoe but the fuckin patent leather cut is terrible once again
August 3rd, 2010 at 4:30 pm
you tell em impala, step your game up.
August 3rd, 2010 at 4:34 pm
you probably arent taking care of them right, just cuz you dont wear them doesnt mean its gonna stay fresh forever. Keep those icey soles away from any light and you will notice no yellowing.
August 3rd, 2010 at 5:34 pm
he wore the cool greys when he was in the wizards
August 3rd, 2010 at 6:06 pm
So does the blue tint prevent the shoe from yellowing or did jb put it there for no reason?
August 3rd, 2010 at 6:07 pm
its either these or taking my girl out??? or maybe i buy these nd take her out to nd eat of the dollar menu lmfao
August 3rd, 2010 at 6:47 pm
Well u rock what u like! i rock gucci! u rock iceberg! u so 2001!!!!!
August 3rd, 2010 at 7:03 pm
will these be a quick streak release?
August 3rd, 2010 at 7:24 pm
they were blue just not the same blue as this
August 3rd, 2010 at 7:29 pm
These are so hot. lines gon be Big Like Shit
August 3rd, 2010 at 7:39 pm
Honestly no hating but it is hype if your older than 25 which I’m not (age19) you know jb will bring out the same shit over and over to the point in the future where there won’t be any value in the shoes eventually will take a while but will happen so if yu wantem then buyem but only cause yu like dem end of story cause Nike”s marketing plan is to keep refining now so every hot sneaker soon will be easy up for grabs great example is the copper foamposites which I’m sellin now like my of sneaker collector say don’t believe da hype buy what you like
August 3rd, 2010 at 7:41 pm
Not refining restoking fukin auto correcting what I type WTF lol
August 3rd, 2010 at 7:47 pm
But yeah Nike gonna keep restoking everything so who ever trying to make a quick flip it won’t be easy but for now js will be ok but foams are officially anybodys reach smh ps who ever wants the flint 13s as yu may know they come out nov. And they have 3m material now,anybody remember what shoe was that last November that got fuked up? Flu game 12s!!!! Same thing is gonna happen to the flint 13s smh sad but true so getem if yu likem yu won’t make a quick flip
August 3rd, 2010 at 7:55 pm

Yes sir I remember him wearing it when the Wizards played the Celtics at Boston Garden during a Sunday afternoon game after I saw that I had to have those shoes in my hands.
August 3rd, 2010 at 10:17 pm
looking so fine!
August 3rd, 2010 at 10:46 pm
SN ur talking about maybe having solid shoe trees?! lmao alittle too optimistic. no way JB is going to drop that much money putting legit shoe trees into a GR, even tho they are hella popular. but like u guys said, hopefully a tight box will come with them.
August 3rd, 2010 at 11:02 pm
Yea yea they dope, no question about it . but the blue sole does make em UNoriginal and Ugly 2 to me. who gives a fuck about the yellowing Seaglow could clean 10 year old jays yall Some Hypebeasts!
August 4th, 2010 at 3:45 am
cool grey were no OG colorway… i usually complain about changes jb makes to OG's but in this case it doesn't matter at all… it's just a re-release of a retro-cw…
August 4th, 2010 at 9:51 am
The price goes up but the quality goes down JB so backwards and cheap, still will cop tho.
August 4th, 2010 at 9:53 am
The nubuck also looks cheap compared to the 01s.

September 5th, 2010 at 2:43 pm
truly the most overrated shoe of all time the shoe is plain has most of its design from the tens also got its design from an old lawn mower when they made the sample jordan and tinker said they should skratch the whole patenet laether thing and start from the begin all most every one here is hypebeast 11s are nice but not the best shoe off all time foampostes are better the 3s 5s 6s 10s 12 s 13s are all better shoes than 11s
November 6th, 2010 at 1:45 am
