2010 marked the celebration of the 25th year of the Air Jordan Legacy; years and years of history and groundbreaking footwear design has allowed Jordan Brand to become the benchmark of fashioned-forward and high-performance basketball footwear, and as we begin the next twenty-five years of Air Jordan, we can only expect an equal amount of tradition and iconoclastic brand movement. For 2011, Jordan Brand will release a limited-edition Air Jordan 2011, celebrating the Year of the Rabbit; Sneaker News showed you a preview of the packaging of this special release, and here we get a look at the entire Air Jordan 2011 ‘Year of the Rabbit’ set, which includes the luxurious Air Jordan 2011 shoe and special apparel in the form of a varsity jacket and a t-shirt.
The Air Jordan 2011 ‘Year of the Rabbit’ features a dark grey upper mudguard with the molded graphic adopting a slightly darker shade for a rich contrast, with gold contrast stitching. Additional details include a red inner lining and tongue with gold accents on the branding and lacing, a gold-glittered translucent outsole, and red Jumpman on the bottom sole. The grey Air Jordan 2011 Varsity Jacket features a number of patches that serve as tributary crests, pointing out Michael Jordan’s MVP trophies, scoring titles, championships, and much more. The Air Jordan ‘Year of the Rabbit’ t-shirt features ‘Brooklyn’ across the chest with a special crest logo as well.

still ugly
January 25th, 2011 at 12:24 am
beautiful, especially since i have a chinese background. box captures chinese new year gift boxes perfectly
January 25th, 2011 at 12:26 am
I aint even gonna lie, These are nice. IMO. Theyre better than some other Jordan legacy shoes.
January 25th, 2011 at 12:26 am
Now we're talking. Best Nike "China" release so far.
January 25th, 2011 at 12:27 am
not bad, but i bet that set is gonna cost nothing short of an arm and half a leg…
January 25th, 2011 at 12:27 am
I have to admit this CW of the new J's got me paying more attention! Nice!
January 25th, 2011 at 12:27 am
do you have to buy the whole set or do they come separately?
January 25th, 2011 at 12:30 am
the AJ2011 is shaping up to be very nice JB, this cw just further proves my point.
January 25th, 2011 at 12:31 am
These aren't bad.. really like packaging .
January 25th, 2011 at 12:33 am
it's gonna be a waste of money, if it was cheaper I'd cop
January 25th, 2011 at 12:35 am
nice soles
January 25th, 2011 at 12:50 am
box looks way better than the shoes, easy pass
January 25th, 2011 at 12:51 am
Year of the Rabbit AF1>Jade Melos>these>Lebrons. .
January 25th, 2011 at 12:57 am
Are they serious??!!! This could have been 1 of the best CW for this shoe & this is what they come up w/it looks like they put more effort in creating the box then the CW for this shoe. Big let down IMO I have to give these 2 thumbs down.
January 25th, 2011 at 12:59 am
The jacket & the shirt is kool, but that CW on the shoe is………………………………………………
January 25th, 2011 at 1:05 am
dope definately gonna try to get these
January 25th, 2011 at 1:17 am
The shoe looks really good. It keeps getting better. Nice job on these.
January 25th, 2011 at 1:24 am
I say 5 thumbs down
January 25th, 2011 at 1:25 am
the only thing i can say about this shoe is nice sole… expected more than just a nice box!
January 25th, 2011 at 1:31 am
What is this? Bordeaux colorway? "Hare?" why year of the rabbit? Because Bugs Bunny? These
Do look nice though. Just a bit of coincidence. This looks pricey. Only high rollers in Macau or big city China can afford this package.
January 25th, 2011 at 1:48 am
these are hot , but i know i won't be able to cop.
January 25th, 2011 at 1:58 am
agreed
January 25th, 2011 at 2:30 am
naaah. i wasnt a fan of the 2011 from the other colorways, but this one does it for me. atfirst i thought it would still be ugly from lookin at the zoomed in pic but once i checked the rest i was proven wrong. way to go JB for cleanin up the mess you almost made with the 2011. lol
January 25th, 2011 at 2:34 am
What the fuk they smokin??
January 25th, 2011 at 6:46 am
I want everything but the Shoes!
January 25th, 2011 at 9:05 am
Those are hot!!! I don't care what the naysayers say. I would love to get my hands on a pair of these. Unfortunately, these will either be super limited or some crazy expensive package deal that forces you to get the jacket and shirt. Sigh!
January 25th, 2011 at 9:18 am
i like the jacket and the tee but that colorway is lacking. its just the black and white pair w/ minor changes.
January 25th, 2011 at 11:06 am
Best cw for the 2011 so far, by far. I'm feelin' these.
January 25th, 2011 at 11:15 am

January 25th, 2011 at 11:23 am
Startin to dig the 2011s more and more, they*re growing on us.
January 25th, 2011 at 1:59 pm
That's the samething I was thinking when I 1st saw these pics, all they did was lighten the black & change the tongue & shoe strings, & ppl are feeling these when they damn near don't look any diff from the black & white pair. Smh
January 25th, 2011 at 2:07 pm
THE JACKET AND t ARE STRAIGHT. i'D ROCK THEM 2011'S IF THEY WERE FREE.

January 25th, 2011 at 4:10 pm

January 25th, 2011 at 4:11 pm
THEY ARE TRYING TO MAKE THIS SHOE BETTER AND THEY SUCCEEDED A LITTLE BIT. DOPE JACKET AND SHIRT. JB NEEDS TONE DOWN SOME OF THE APPAREL AND MAKE IT MORE CLASSY AND THEY JUST STARTED WITH THIS SHIRT AND JACKET.
January 25th, 2011 at 5:10 pm

January 25th, 2011 at 5:41 pm

January 25th, 2011 at 5:46 pm
I like. Probably be mad expensive though.
January 25th, 2011 at 7:44 pm
The shoe looked okay until I saw those stupid gold flecks on the sole. WTF.
January 26th, 2011 at 6:08 am
Are you retarded? MJ was born in '63, which is the year of the rabbit.
