Ultimate Guide to the Air Jordan 11 Space Jam 2016 Release

Air Jordan 11 Space Jam 2016 Retro 01 620x436

Last Updated: December 9th, 2016

Jordan Brand’s Holiday releases are always some of the most sought after sneakers of that year, and 2016 looks to be no different thanks to the retro of the iconic Space Jam Jordan 11. This year’s pair takes a different route though, focusing on an early sample from 1995 that Mike wore during his second round matchup against the Orlando Magic. An updated ’45’ PE stitching on the heel will definitely stand out as the major difference, but there’s also Nike Air branding on the insole and an updated cut of the patent leather mudguard that features a contrasting white piping to match the original Air Jordan 11 release slate. The Space Jam Jordan 11s will release at retailers on December 10th for $220 USD, so you have plenty of time to try and figure out how you’ll grab a pair. Check out 2016’s Space Jam 11s below and stay tuned for more of the latest Jordan release dates right here on Sneaker News.

SPACE JAM HISTORY

This colorway of the Air Jordan 11 was first seen in the 1995 NBA Playoffs. Michael Jordan wore the Air Jordan 10 throughout his comeback season, but switched to the Air Jordan 11 because he found them irresistible to wear. He first wore the white/black “Concord”, but was forced by the NBA to switch to an all-black sneaker, which ended up being the shoes we’ve come to know as the “Space Jam 11s”. Fun fact: although the shoes are nicknamed “Space Jam”, they existed long before the movie came out. Below are photos of Michael Jordan wearing the shoes against the Orlando Magic in the 1995 NBA Playoffs.
