This past week was a major treat for Air Jordan XI fans, as we got a clear confirmation of the release of the Columbia XI and received a nice treat in the form of the Air Jordan XI ‘Blackout’. Here’s a look at yet another piece of Air Jordan XI greatness – the University Blue/Black-White sample; much like the Air Jordan X sample we showed you yesterday, this sample features a tonal University Blue upper with a White Jumpman logo on the heel and a black mesh-weave inner lining. Curiously enough, these are dated as Spring 2010, while the Air Jordan X sample was due in Spring of 2008. Additionally, you may attribute these to the Pantone 284 Collection that was on display at the Jordan Brand ‘For The Love Of The Game’ pop-up exhibit in Harlem during 2010′s World Basketball Festival, but these do not feature the laser-graphic upper (but instead a leather material seen on the Cool Grey XI). So which Air Jordan XI sample to you like better – these or the ‘Blackout’ (currently fetching over $7,500 in auction)? Check out the detailed gallery below and check out the listing from btn_16 on eBay.

February 11th, 2012 at 7:53 pm
I remember when I went to Atmos and saw the whole collection there, I fell in love with these. These are gonna go for a pretty penny.
February 11th, 2012 at 7:54 pm
Agreed. It was unreal.
February 11th, 2012 at 8:04 pm
Come on…I don't want to see anymore kicks I can't have in the near future! I'm tired of being tortured with these samples, that look far better than many of the Retros JB has released in the last couple years! How about using top of the line materials ala the bin collection and release them together for a cool $400.00????
February 11th, 2012 at 8:09 pm
Fresh…more of a collector's item doe. I rather rock my kicks and judging by the blackout joints these outta my range. 3 different hues of "carolina blue" I can see da hate from a mile away. Just appreciate this..all I can do :/ and you as well
February 11th, 2012 at 8:16 pm
Execution to its max
February 11th, 2012 at 8:18 pm

February 11th, 2012 at 9:37 pm

February 11th, 2012 at 9:40 pm

February 11th, 2012 at 9:55 pm

February 11th, 2012 at 10:14 pm

February 11th, 2012 at 10:45 pm
Time for Nike to give in and put retros like the XI up on NikeID.
February 11th, 2012 at 11:25 pm
FAIL!!! BURRRR
February 11th, 2012 at 11:36 pm
Love em. I'd rock these with a Bruins jersey. Fight, fight, fight
February 11th, 2012 at 11:49 pm

February 12th, 2012 at 2:25 am

February 12th, 2012 at 2:36 am
If they do release JB should deff swap the laces for some white 1's
February 12th, 2012 at 3:54 am

February 12th, 2012 at 8:59 am
lol these are like young pimps answer to gators
February 12th, 2012 at 10:58 am
JB needs to make these sample a release, in my opinion.
February 12th, 2012 at 12:06 pm
they should release these in a pack with the columbia's, a yin-yang type thing
February 12th, 2012 at 12:07 pm
i think it would look better with white laces that is just my own oppion
February 12th, 2012 at 12:23 pm
why cant we just stick to the basics? jams, breds…
February 12th, 2012 at 12:48 pm
i wonder how come they use the same interior on these as they did the silver anniversarys? I noticed the same thing on the all blacks
February 12th, 2012 at 1:49 pm
these are icy as hell….though I'd take the 'black out' pair over these…plus the columbias are coming out!
and at this rate, it seems like only 1 XI release per year.
February 12th, 2012 at 4:37 pm
Yes sir, you could just throw the cool grey/anni laces on them!
February 12th, 2012 at 7:55 pm
these shits wakk
February 13th, 2012 at 10:30 am

February 13th, 2012 at 3:55 pm
