On The Fence: Air Jordan XI Low – White – Varsity Red – Black
April 30th, 2012 by John K. | 72 comments

Jordans and Nikes have become exceedingly popular over the last few years, and while there exists a select group in the population that persists in believing that it still is a ‘sub-culture’, sneakers have become THE culture – perhaps the defining fashion phenomenon of this generation. Kim Kardashian rocking the Cement IIIs is a perfect example that Jordans have become a ‘hot’ item, but that shouldn’t take away from your own individual relationship with sneakers (and why should another person wearing your favorite kicks have any affect on you?). And while it’s no mystery that copping sneakers isn’t what it once was (even Nike is taking measures to alter the horizon), not every release is an instant sell-out.
This Saturday’s release of the Air Jordan XI Low might fall in that category for a number of reasons; it’s not an original colorway (albeit still a Bulls get-up), there are other desirable releases month, and some still can’t mess with Lows. However anything with patent leather seems to sell like hotcakes, and with Michael himself rocking some PE varieties of the low-top Air Jordan XI, the excitement for these could be underestimated. In any case, the choice is yours come Saturday, as these will likely fall under Nike’s ‘Twitter RSVP’ procedure and won’t hit Nikestore until 8 AM. So, are you on the fence on these?

I have question. I live in ny, and I plan on buying these. Is showing up at 7am a good time to be there ?? I plan to go to 34th in the house of hoops, and I'm a size 10. Please, someone let me know ..
you need to go at 7pm, not 7am, take a lawn chair with you. and some pogie bait.
Got mine last week..the white patent leather is clleaaannn!!!!
glad no one likes these....... wont be that hectic this weekend......... esp with these new release rules..... MUST COP FOR ME !!!!!!!!!
These are weak... They look like girl shOes 4real
Sorry guys, I got cut off. I was gonna say, "Lol, thanks for not copping these so me and all the other "down lows" can all wear them and identify each other by the shoes we're wearing. I think they're thuper thweet!
another impersonator obviously.... I'm flying to the top though it looks like!
yellow already
Cop.. The color way is pretty dope..
Im done with Jordans, is a mission to get a pair this days. Plus their expensive sneakers, and quality is garbage. I Refuse to camp and also I refuse to pay resell price im not feeding this little lazy monsters with no jobs..
The way the sneaker game is right now if you like them you better cop them now because these are going to go for $300+ after release date. I like them and I already cop them. Good luck to those who likes them and going to cop because even if people saying these are ugly its going to be hard to get especially if you live in NYC.
Easy pass...compared 2 the other kickz coming out soon..*shrugs* I'm not trippin over these...
I know the malls and shoe stores are going to be insane... Glad I have mines already! I never thought it would get as real as it has gotten lately over kicks...
I bought my girl a pair yesterday . They look nice in gs sizes but look terrible in men's sizes
FTFY: Why should another person wearing your favorite kicks have any EFFECT on you?
Copped... Will be fire with jeans.... And they're like awhit version of breds so how can you go wrong
Coppin dem Laker frogs n these... Oh n dem LeBron Elite away since they still in stock. Got da home joints already.
Ain't no being on the fence with this one. Thirsty ass kids are still gonna line up and cause chaos at malls smh
On the Fence? Nope! im jumpin over the fence on release date to cop these lol i kno th was corny but these 11low to fresh to pass up
They already turning yellow in the pics lol
Since most of you n00bs weren't copping jay's in 2002-2004, but I'm 95% positive this was actually a variant colorway bootlegers sold, SMH at nike now selling these as authentic.
*BARF* Is Mike still dancin' for dollas?
There gay low like that should be high, u guys can have them look like mj golf shoes
I hear the pros and cons you all are throwing out there...but EVERY shoe has is goods and bads...EVERY shoe...but Im still getting these...DEF cop for me...
Pass. The patent leather already looks yellowing and hasn't released!!! Smh. But Quality aside, They look ok but def not worth the hype every jb release is getting recently.
Forget on the fence. I want these on my feet!!!!
Not on the fence, cop.
In the year 2032, these will still be ugly as shyt.
most likely any shoe you get will be ugly in 20 years!!!!!!
Passing. I'll let the hypebeasts devour this shoe.
II'll tell u want I'm on the fence about these so I want kamp out but that morning ill go to the mall and if they got my pair n my size I'm gonna kop
Love xi's till I die and red is my fav. Color...but I jus can not cop these being about a 7 or 8 and there are to many 10's (no not the Jordan...10 on a scale) on the horizon...if there still around in months to come then cool, if not oh well
That 140 dollars is going to stay in my pocket.
...too generic...easy pass.
from 115, to 135, to now 140.. i think the decision has been made for me.. ima pass
In the year 2032 these will be called the "ketchup and mustard 11s"
YOu must have a time machine
this site hypes up the wackest sneakers. anything with patent leather sells??? lol really and who gives a shit kim k wore kanyes 3s. that makes it hot?
instant sell out! it doesnt matter anymore if its a non og colorway everybody including nuns at church are gonna cop
The only reason Kim even knows about the sneaker culture is because of the men she dates. Otherwise CLUELESS!
If you are on the fence, stay there. These are dope! Copped!
everything is purple, every fence is purple, swag, swag
loser get a job

Can't wait to get these. Two pair.
