Air Jordan XI ‘Blackout’ – New Images
February 13th, 2012 by John K. | 93 comments

Thought you were an expert and/or connoisseur of unreleased Air Jordan samples? Sneaker News flipped over that table when we showed you the Air Jordan XI ‘Blackout’ sample last Friday, and the pure beauty of that sample was made rather lucid – the highest bid of the shoe is currently swimming around the compact car/state college tuition range. As the saying goes, “If you build it, they will come” bodes particularly true for sneakerheads, because we’re certain that those who have participated in one of the craziest sneaker auctions in history are the hardcore of the hardcore and don’t take laces and soles too lightly. However, we’re about to throw a slight wrench into the situation, because it appears those Blackout samples aren’t exactly a one-of-one (these days, is there truly a one-of-one anyway?). Here’s a new set of images of another pair of the Air Jordan XI ‘Blackout’; if you’re mesmerized that more than on pairs exists, it’s even more of a mind-fudge to know that this second pair is also a size 10.5. Continue on for another look at this jaw-dropping sample courtesy of eBay seller btn_16 and if you’re still looking to throw your bids in, get in on the action on the only listing available now on eBay.













these would be really nice if released
I need a closet full of these!!!!
Team Orange (Citrus) 11's come back...
colorway made in heaven :3
People stop calling these FAKE. Can't ya read?? It's a SAMPLE...read it again...S-A-M-P-L-E.
100% fake. If anyone has Concorde, breds, or space jam 11's look at the bottom and you will be like OMG they really are fake. Sneakernews shouldn't promo fake shit. Amd these are fake. I wouldn't wear them if I found them in a dumpster. If Jordan brand releases this color way awesome but I bet they have a carbon fiber shank not checkered plastic.
the checkered carbon fiber means not fake for sure, how can you ppl say these are fake? !it's just a sample , SN should cancel ur post, do you think they would post a fake with no clue if they are actually legit... cheap sneakerhead u don't even see the tag is ok and the carbon fiber isn't plastic, just cause breds,concords aren't like that..
eww ugly shits
THESE ARE FAKES.... LOOK AT THAT CHECKERED CARBON FIBER ON THE SIDE!!!! Im surprised none of yall "sneaker heads" cant tell smh
there samples dick head i see your not one so fuck off dick shit
Those look so cheap and fake it dont make no sense...
http://loud-mouse.com/2012/02/16/ballin-out-of-co... I actually made a bid on these. Check out the screen shot.
Garbage is all I am saying looks so fake!!!!!!!!!
Fuget what yal talkin, these r fukin beautiful
ugly
not my cup of tea
They Look like Crap the bidders are MORONS for spending their drug money on this shit!
The Shoe Cool But The Ice Kinda Fuck Um Up But If They Make The Bottom Black They Might Be Harder
I got a gut feeling that with all of these samples of the XIs, that JB could POSSIBLY be coming up with a new colorway.
shit to clean!!!!!!
Cant wait for the GR of these. Nothing special, but worth it for retail.
You are really pathetic to think that was Tinker himself that posted that.
More like Tinker Bell
i think these will drop sometime this year, maybe in a pack with those xiv's
could these have been planed to come out as the primio bin 23 11's???the inside of the sneaker has the same fabric they used in the premio 13's, 9's etc...It could be a possibility...remember these are a sample....
How do people get their hands on jordan samples ? who releases them into the public ????
If these actually ever dropped in a size 15 ild wear these to my wedding!!!
the jumpman logo has to stand out more but thats just me.
We're goin to use the same material as the "Cool Greys" but more renewed outsole... This is just the sample folks... Watch out for updates...
dear hypebeast, take your dirty concords to a shoe repair shop & get a $20 black dye job & you can have em too,did it to the olive 9's a few years back.
Should I start camping out now?
Ha! The Burger King XI's
might release may 1st like anni 11's
These remind me of the XI PEs they made for the NBA refs way back
Leather is a lil crappy....but don't get it twisted these Black Ops be WAVY!!!!!!!!!!!!
these are just too ridiculous man...can't believe how much its going for tho...almost 2 years of my tuition...lol.
These are a plain black shoe. It's not that spectacular. These are only liked by most people because it's an 11.
If The Solees Hadd That Blue-ish Color Like The Concords, Omg They Would Be Wet.
then the shoe would not be called blackouts, Duuuuhhhhhhh!!!!!!1
In all honesty, these are pretty plain
this auction is for 10k haaaaaaaaaaaaaa
the black outs look like a pretty nice shoe but instead of the upper part of the shoe being a mesh material they should be suade like the cool grays so the shoe won't look like a copy of the space jams with a black sole
Now that's hot a hot idea! Those are some black outs I would camp out for! The way they are now, f#ck paying 11k for em. Get some Space Jams and a black sharpie and you good 2 go! LOL :-P
They Look Fake To Me But Its Ok I Guess
Maybe these are signs of new colorways to come from Jordan brand for the XI's. I mean they have been doing it for every other numbered jordan so why not these.
i have a feeling these will release on black friday
I have a feeling your a stupid hype beast because there not.
I have a feeling that tonights gonna be a good night
shoot urself
girls just wanna have fuh-hun
No @freakazoid the black cement fours are releasing on black Friday it's confirmed on the FOotlocker launch list
I know that idiot I was responding to the original post when he said that these black out 11's Gona drop. I know the black cement 4a dropping black Friday. Copping them hard.
