The Air Jordan XI Concord has been confirmed for a late 2011 release, but questionable images have been floating around, posing as the real deal. Well, as if you needed a reminder as to how beautiful these things really are, here’s a certifiably legit set of images of the Air Jordan XI Concord 2011 Retro. As you all know (if you didn’t check with our Michael Jordan Through The Years: Air Jordan XI feature), MJ gave the world a premature look at his eleventh signature shoe when he broke out the White/Black pair against the Orlando Magic in the 1995 NBA Playoffs. NBA on NBC host Ahmad Rashad and the rest of the viewing public let out a gasp of amazement at the Air Jordan XI, although shoe designer Tinker Hatfield wasn’t very pleased with the early unveiling (and NBA league officials warned MJ of a fine for not matching team uniforms). The stories regarding the Air Jordan XI Concord can go on and on, so we’ll save those for another time. For now, enjoy these sweet new images of the Air Jordan XI Concord 2011 Retro and let us know if these are a must have for you how many pairs you’re going to cop. via kicks-lab.

July 28th, 2011 at 11:10 am
YES!!!!! The hype begins now, Cant wait to own a pair of these!!! #winning
July 28th, 2011 at 11:10 am
I know it's a small gripe, but why make the carbon plate monochromatic?
July 28th, 2011 at 11:11 am
Ahhhh yes so fucking nice!!
July 28th, 2011 at 11:12 am
These are so freaking** nice!!
July 28th, 2011 at 11:12 am

July 28th, 2011 at 11:13 am

July 28th, 2011 at 11:16 am

July 28th, 2011 at 11:17 am

July 28th, 2011 at 11:17 am
SEXiiii…I'm going to cop me 4 pairs!
July 28th, 2011 at 11:18 am
double up! cant wait
July 28th, 2011 at 11:18 am
i dont usually cop 2 pairs of anything, but im gonna have 2 make an exception on these! 1 to roc and 1 to stock will be in order!
July 28th, 2011 at 11:18 am
Beautiful !
Idk about yall but i like the way the sole looks. That bluish tint almost matches the concord color.
July 28th, 2011 at 11:19 am
BEAUTIFUL! Gotta have 2 pairs!
July 28th, 2011 at 11:19 am
Damn I want me two pair reguardless of what anybody say, if you complainning don't cop you only doing the rest of us a favor chea!
July 28th, 2011 at 11:20 am
I hope for two, but I think my wallet will only allow me one since there's constantly shit coming out I just need to have. One if enough anyway, because my old pair still looks like new.
July 28th, 2011 at 11:20 am
is ti my PC monitor or theses are some really cheap materials JB is gonna use. The white leather on the back looks like some bad quality. But let the hype begin folks.
July 28th, 2011 at 11:24 am
Holy shiznit, these are beautiful, blue sole are a little overdone but its all good
July 28th, 2011 at 11:24 am
Thank You Based God
July 28th, 2011 at 11:29 am
Two Madrid's would be a better investment, but to each his own…
July 28th, 2011 at 11:32 am
I'm going to cop exactly 0 pairs. Can't stand no XI, no matter what cw.
July 28th, 2011 at 11:34 am
These are hella ICEY! def a cop!
July 28th, 2011 at 11:34 am
the shape sucks as usual. If they made them like the 2000 pairs id get a pair. Not wasting money on a more expensive product that is made worse.
July 28th, 2011 at 11:40 am
I think that line started rite now.
July 28th, 2011 at 11:48 am
Question im a size 10 and i was wonderig if the space jams and the cool greys that released run small, cuz my cdp bred xi do. Lmk so i can pick th right size please, thanks
July 28th, 2011 at 11:48 am
whyy such a blue sole?
July 28th, 2011 at 11:51 am
not feelin the icy blue sole :/
July 28th, 2011 at 11:52 am
These look terrible with the blue sole….. Yall young heads can have em. Still rockin my '01's.
July 28th, 2011 at 11:56 am
as bart scott says…CAN'T WAIT! stitched jumpman….icey soles…..patent though skimpy..shiny..ill take 2 pairs….nice!!!!!!
July 28th, 2011 at 12:00 pm
the blue soles actually dont look to bad mannnn
July 28th, 2011 at 12:04 pm
Dat's what i'm thinkin, never copped early b4, but I might not be able 2 wait! And did anybody else see dat da release date 4 da Metalics changed from da 6th to da 20th?
July 28th, 2011 at 12:16 pm
I won't da OG sole Fu@k,butt it is what it is …. JAYs allday
July 28th, 2011 at 12:19 pm
I'd like two but not gonna happen, I'm just glad I already got one of lock with discount! Lovin'em, dope even with the blue titnt soles.
July 28th, 2011 at 12:22 pm
Not investing , I'm wearing
July 28th, 2011 at 12:23 pm
These pics are WAAAAY better than VMINC or whatever the hell. My only complaints are the monochromatic CF plate (as mentioned previously) and the PL is cut a little low. But the shape looks more accurate in these pics. I'm excited. Will probably try to cop early.
July 28th, 2011 at 12:24 pm
got the cool greys def gonna have a pair of these
July 28th, 2011 at 12:34 pm
LOL i did the same thing!!! but i fear the worse in terms of the amount of people camping out for these bad boys!
July 28th, 2011 at 12:35 pm
must have!!
July 28th, 2011 at 12:38 pm
fuck yeah
July 28th, 2011 at 12:50 pm
damn it ! – i hate pacific time ; everybody in the eastside copped these while i was asleep ! i dont see any problem waiting in line though ; pre ordering is a waste of money to me . i can wait in line at 11 and socialize with some real sneakerheads and i think its fun ; people share pizza ; umbrellas ; jackets and even rides . so i dont think i will be pre ordering
July 28th, 2011 at 1:14 pm
Only the bred cdp
July 28th, 2011 at 1:16 pm
who carez bro the neew metalics are garbage
July 28th, 2011 at 1:19 pm
y jb always changing shit… i want tht icy sole not blue
but ima still copp cuz these are hoes magnets
July 28th, 2011 at 1:20 pm
MAn why didn't they add the blue tint to the Space Jam retros, mine are yellow as shit now haha..(and yes I DO WEAR THEM…) but damn they like Mucus Jams now.
July 28th, 2011 at 1:21 pm
I'm gonna cop these at sunvalley mall in concord, ca….. If ur from the bay u know where that is….. Only coppin' 1 pair…. Lucky just to have a pair….
July 28th, 2011 at 1:22 pm
I don't usually buy 2 pairs of sneakers, but when I do, they're Concord 11's.
July 28th, 2011 at 1:31 pm
Nice comment. But better safe than sorry. If your out there enough you find that crazy things happen on release dates. Like this. I will cop on VMV soon really really son fa-real.
July 28th, 2011 at 1:37 pm
Nice. But too blue
July 28th, 2011 at 1:59 pm
As much as ppl like these shoes, they are blinded by bs material and this gay ass blue tint….shit looks horrible. SMH most of you are lil kids thats only buying these because of the hype, real sneakerheads are somewhat disgusted.
July 28th, 2011 at 2:02 pm
In line already waiting on these!!
July 28th, 2011 at 2:05 pm
holy cowwwww
July 28th, 2011 at 2:12 pm
i still dont really understand why people camp out when they can just purchase online as long as they do it at 12 am est sharp.
July 28th, 2011 at 2:13 pm
You weren't hugged as a child .
July 28th, 2011 at 2:16 pm
people also get killed.
July 28th, 2011 at 2:20 pm
I know what you mean, I'm in Oakland and I know how it is out here, but I'm just lucky I got these on lock already, no waiting in line, whew! Good luck, I know the line is gonna be crazy, but should be fun though(as long as you can cop a pair,lol).
July 28th, 2011 at 2:20 pm
The ice sole may be a little too blue, but that might be good to keep it from turning yellow-ish. I need 3 pairs of these.
July 28th, 2011 at 2:24 pm
Try North Riverside Mall just outside of Chicago… (Land Of Air Jordans) J's around here don't last.
July 28th, 2011 at 2:25 pm
Amen.
July 28th, 2011 at 2:27 pm
These pictures couldn't look any sexier. Oh wait, toss a sexy girl in it and THEN it couldn't get any sexier!!!
July 28th, 2011 at 2:28 pm
Dos Xs commercial dude, is that you?
July 28th, 2011 at 2:29 pm
Shoot yourself
July 28th, 2011 at 2:32 pm
I have og but for some reason I like the blue sole kinda goes well with the purple
July 28th, 2011 at 2:40 pm
yeah and get your ass shot up….shoes aint worth dying for or even going to blows for….real rap
July 28th, 2011 at 2:47 pm
A Sright must have I dont give a damn how i get them come dec they will b on my feet. Best 11 colorway hands down.
July 28th, 2011 at 2:50 pm
dope
July 28th, 2011 at 2:58 pm
I don't think any color sole could make these look bad
July 28th, 2011 at 2:58 pm
The hype began since late last year. Where you been at??
July 28th, 2011 at 3:02 pm
THANK YOU BABY JESUS !!
July 28th, 2011 at 3:11 pm
These are gonna fuck up in a minute. Ima buy just to flip them. 2000 concords ftw!
July 28th, 2011 at 3:32 pm
a lot of ppl want the shoe in hand. its like buying a car. you can do it online but wouldnt you rather like to drive off the lot in it??
July 28th, 2011 at 3:41 pm
OVERHYPED. OVERAETED
July 28th, 2011 at 3:41 pm
why is everybody bitching about how icy the sole is? you guys should appreciate
July 28th, 2011 at 3:53 pm
agreed i don't know why people would hype to waste two bills and waiting on line for this shit its nice but way overpriced
July 28th, 2011 at 4:08 pm
Yea, I've been to that mall once while in the military, and on a regular day is crazy, good luck my dude, real talk thats gonna be a mission.
July 28th, 2011 at 4:10 pm
^^ I agree. Anybody's who's copped with the icey bottoms would kno that it only last like 2 wears or so. My wolf grey's I've only wore like 5 maybe 6 times and it been gone. People just wanna complain. And people on her frontin talkin like they gonna get 3-4 pairs. It's gonna be hard just gettin one. They will be sold out by noon everywhere. And it's christmas. If u got 540 to spend on yourself plus ur loved ones then u ballin lol. Good luck wit dat
July 28th, 2011 at 5:23 pm
you'll end up buying it so quit talking.
July 28th, 2011 at 5:24 pm
these will be the first time ive been able to buy an OG XI color way i was too young when they last came out, im really excited for these. and i actually really like that icy sole. its like a hint of blueish purple.
July 28th, 2011 at 5:59 pm
yeah i noticed that, and that the patent leather is cut kinda low on the sides
July 28th, 2011 at 6:02 pm
he is the most interesting man in the world
July 28th, 2011 at 6:03 pm
cool, more for me
July 28th, 2011 at 6:10 pm
"quality basketball products" my ass, i'll still cop, but every material on these looks cheap. i dont wanna sound like im bitching, but as a loyal jordan fan it just hurts to jb focusing on profits and pushing craftsmanship aside.
July 28th, 2011 at 6:46 pm
lol
July 28th, 2011 at 6:54 pm
yall bitchin about the icy blue soles and sh%t smh it helps slow down the yellowing and soesnt look that bad either
July 28th, 2011 at 7:00 pm
Sliick sheeyiT!
July 28th, 2011 at 7:05 pm
Nobody is crazy enough to kill somebody over some j's in arizona my dude . & yeah if pre orders go more around $260 or so i will pre order .
July 28th, 2011 at 8:36 pm
