Air Jordan XI “Bred” 2012

bred air jordan xi 2012 3 Air Jordan XI Bred 2012

This December, Jordan Brand has plans of releasing the historic “Bred” colorway of the Air Jordan XI – arguably the sneaker with the most ties to the great annals basketball in history. As Michael wore the Black/Red Air Jordan XI to an astounding season during the ’95-’96 season (his first full season since his first retirement), we witnessed that true greatness doesn’t take a break (or an extended one, at least) because much like Jordan did, the ‘Bred’ XI made a return just a few years after it was last seen. Originally part of the December 2008 Collezione release, the Air Jordan XI ‘Bred’ will now release as a single unit, but it appears that the regular Jordan Brand shoe-box will be used with the red plastic shoe trees – that is, unless the Brand has plans of switching it up to the “traditional” slide-out box we were treated to three years running. Additional angles are right ahead, so take a look and stay tuned for more on what may be the must-have Air Jordan Retro of the year. Photos: SH

Im not sold that this box is as pictured.... Unfinished with no plastic ring for the hole yet so someone whipped it together quickly. Probably someone who works for a company building shoes with stolen materials and calling them real.

No slide box ? ... i'm passing ... not worth going through all the trouble and not getting all the special little things like the box

Kicksole.com has more pictures of an actual model of the 2012 pair. The toe cap is opaque (milky) too.

However, I do find it interesting that they haven't showed us the toe cap in any of the pictures. This could be the CDP for all we know. There hasn't been any distinction showing how these are different from any other Bred 11's.

 @sosa_sweet96 How can they show a picture of the Cool gray 9s if the titles states jordan 11 bred you must be stupid. You probably don't even know why the 9s and the 11 were made fucken fake sneakerheads by your name you must be a young virgin just saying. It's a sneaker with history stop following the crowd and know you shit

 @TrueFlightJays yo dumb dumb, if you was a "real" sneakerhead you would know that its "cool GREY".  I might be a young nigga but I know the history behind jays fag. I clearly can see the title states "Air Jordan XI "Bred" 2012" . I prefer see the cg 9's instead of breds especially since they released in 08 and cg released 10 years ago.....please explain how my user sounds likea virgin? pretty sure I get more box than you

 @sosa_sweet96 Sorry for the Gray it's a typo I never called my self a sneaker head kid. I get more box than you okay. You get more boxes than me if you are talking about sneakers than you probably don't kid. Ask Jumpmanbostic and Jstar25 kid thats why my name is trueflightjays I use to review my collection on youtube before copyright infringement hahahaha. And you pretty much answer your question how do you sound like a virgin? You get more box than me.

On the real tho these joints are fake. Wait till the real shit comes out to judge. There was a big story awhile back ago on sites that are selling the early releases and an editor an a sneaker site thought his cool grey 11's were real but when he dismantled his early pair and his real pair they were completely different on the details. I remember specifically the air sole not actually having any air in it. Was wayyy off inside.

BigDMoney208

@sosa_sweet96 @TrueFlightJays Stop the hate just relate! I am sure if dude knew what he was talking about he is counting the days for the cool grey 9's simply because it's been toooooo long. But if someone wants to bitch about the picture of the fake breds pictured it's whatever. They are made from stolen materials at a different factory and sold on the black market early. That or Nike sells the materials and gets a hell of a profit from early sales... But I am sure the new bred 11's will look good. If you look at the above picture they don't have the black ring that goes on the hole so someone whipped this shit together quick and likely fake. I don't see a MSRP on the label either.

Damn calm down, i swear people now a days are fueled by hate!  I think he knows what the title says dumbass! That IS why he said fcuk the breds, meaning he wants to see pictures of the upcoming cool grey 9 retros! I actually would like to see some pics of those kicks too! And im tired of "true sneakerheads" downplaying others, like yall know every fcuking thing! Im 18 and i love sneakers and i know my sneaker history, does my age and me being part of the "new school" make me a fake sneakerhead or a hypebeast? Fcuk outta here with all that bullshit! Go sit your ass down with all that unneeded hate!

they look good to me, but when they showed early pics of the Cool Greys they didn't have a special box so I sure hope these end up with the box...

Just like the cdp joint way off. The shape and color off. But that's not stop the kiddies from eating em up! With $200 which is what the resellers and mom n pop stores are gonna jack up the price too I'd much rather cop some 01 joints. I was hoping the stood a bit closer to the 01 or OG version but nope that life. That leather on the ankle area with the jumpman looks cheap too.

This quality shit again yall keep saying but keep buying it, if u buying it shut up. They early production pics and yall jumping off the wall 98% of yall dont kno or care about quality but yall doing to sound like everybody else. But the boy Jstforkicks22 he shits on everything but goes out and buy it aint that foolish. These r just kicks yall but yall acting like these shoes breath life or something get over yallself, wait until november or december for the actual shoe. These look just like any other bred 11's at the end of the day.

 @hozezae I couldn't agree more all of you are judging a picture of a sneaker 5-6 in advance (that none of you have in your hands) and I guarantee none of you have an OG/2011 to know what good quality is.   And for those saying they're going to get the CDP your not because you're paying $200+ for the only elevens with the 23 paint problem.  Everybody complains the resellers are to blame for the probs in the sneaker culture but here you are complaining about something you are going to buy smh.  I hope they drop with a regular box it'll eliminate some of the hype like sneakerhead2320

@SirRocco@hozezae

Lol.. I'm far from a hypebeast,  I've been in this shoe game about 28 years.. I've been wearing J's & Nike's all my life..

 

I got the banned 1's that were released at select outlets last year, You know why illuminike & JB didn't release them to the major shoe stores?

 

Because the quality was actually really good on them.. They figured if people saw they could still make a shoe with real leather & "NIke" on it (not a jumpman) & only charge $109.00 for them why are they raising the prices & poor quality for all the other retro's...

 

Instead they give the excuse that they were "B" grade.. Anybody that has a pair can agree the quality was really good & the materials used were good stuff.. I buy kicks that I like.. not cause they have a Jumpman on them..

If you know the JB 411 you know the final product will end up as crappy as samples do and in a matter of weeks b-grade samples will start selling online like every JB release within the last year. They minus will buy a cdp version they getting the same shit. Let them be suckers.

@TrueFlightJays Ok clap clap young buck searched the Internet became a member of various forums and knows his shit bravo(sarcasm) good for you. I'm 27 I been into Js since I saw the man himself play when I was in elementary school. I'm not gonna start a history lesson I'll keep it short and simple. As someone who grew up in an age where Nike made sneakers with quality it bothers me that they raise the price due to production cost yet the materials suck. I understand prices go up but it's no excuse to have a half assed product. To top it this is my fav pair of Js of all time. We come on here to express how we feel about the shoes everyone is entitled to they opinion. At the end of the day JB wins cause after all the complain 98% go abd purchase the shoe only a few pass on em. If you have knowledge good for u! Pass it on to the other kids your age whoopty do! Btw the militaries quality in 06 was beyond horrible. I'm sure these were slightly better not by much I compared my boys pair to my 06 and it's not that much different. Temperature,atmosphere,lighting etc that takes months and years to affect Js not an overnight shipping in a cargo plane.

 @Dezfriednutz these aren't going to be 185 i think they got their info wrong nike didn't announce the final price on these. I felt these on hand try asking your local sneaker shop if they have some samples to look at. I'm a loyal customer so I know the employees. These have better quality that the dmp and maybe the same as the 2001. I'm serious. It's all about the history of the sneakers. You seem like your mad at people who like sneakers. But in fact you don't know the real reason why they buy sneakers. Honestly I buy sneakers because I love the history. I have always wanted to use my own money to buy sneakers I started collecting when I was 10 in 2004. The Jordan 7 olympics which retroed  was my first sneaker. I only got the 2012 ones because they are almost exact to the 2004 because there's no heart. You may think it's shitty quality but I feel like the quality was okay. You can't hate on people because of them buying sneakers it's what they want. DO you know why the Jordan eleven's were even made. Tell me that's if you know sneakers like who you claim to be. Honestly know I don't even think you own the 96 ogs whats the upc code and the production date. I hate how you act like you really know them but by the way you are typing it seems like you are just looking things up. Like 2006 really. I got the military 4's that were good quality. DO you even know what quality is in the community. It's not only flaws. It's the materials right. You also know that they ship Jordans through boats right and airplanes. So they spend a good time in a hot box and a freezing plane. You don't think that maybe the reason for the quality. Also when jordan was first included in the nike line they actually were manufactured in taiwan right and the were engineered and constructed and also inspected in the USA. Now it's all china to cut down their spending. But the gas prices are higher so the prices goes up for them to make profit. They ship it from china to us you know how much that cost for gas. You have to understand things it's the economy's fault not Jordan brand you are lucky they still retro sneakers. SMH you think you know shit

i know im sure as hell not plus the price tag going up and up. its all opinion at the end of the day and people do whatever they wat with they money. the funny thing is that the qaulity from js has been crap since 06. the only js with good quality were the bin collection and the dmp everytthing went to shit afterwards

 @Dezfriednutz Not always, the concords didn't look great in the samples but when I got them I was happy.  Yeah I know the b-grades will prob be selling in late august.  I was talking to the people who only have gr's from the past 2-3 years who think they know everything and follow the crowd saying the quality is horrible (and judge quality from a picture).  My point- we're going to wear them so lets just enjoy a fresh pair of j's.

 @SirRocco No but i have '01's & I'm sure everyone would agree the quality was pretty good on those & judging by these photos they don't look too good,  

 

illumiNike knows they're gonna sell out in minutes, so it doesn't matter to them that every pair wont be grade A, it won't matter cause they know everybody will be running to give them their money for a sub par product.

 Noone cares if you are or not. Noone cares about your simple  close minded "Illumnike" conspericy theories. The truth is you guys LOVE to complain about everything! I remember when they showed the sample of how the nike lebron 9 would look like, everywhere i went EVERYBODY was hating on that shoe but when it dropped those people shut up quick i spent money on at least one of the colourways.

 

 

"The quality is down, the black is not black enough, the red sole is too light, the carbon fiber looks fake." Thats all i hear, You people need to shut the hell up with all this bitching and moaning it get old, and its very tired! It is the same thing for every Jordan retro release. Get over it!

 @jstforkicks22 Just wait for the marqueesole pics. Also, the CDP 11s were probably worse quality than these. I mean it's the only 11 that I know of that had problems with the 23 peeling off. As for the patent leather cut it's seems to be exactly the same as the Concords which you have. So just calm down, wait for more pics, and then make a more educated decision.
