For better or worse, 2012 was a defining year for the sneaker world and all that it encompasses. It was a year that saw certain shoes throw the laws of supply and demand so out of whack, that brands and retailers had to completely rethink the way they sell shoes to the public just to keep the peace. If you were willing to put in some legwork or, better yet, had the right connections, it was a banner year for sneaker enthusiasts. “Must-have” releases seemed to be at an all-time high and nearly every weekend offered up some sort of temptation for consumers. 2012 saw the release of some of the most eagerly anticipated and passionately sought-after sneakers the game had ever seen and it’s safe to say that things will never be the same again.
In between those, there were plenty of other desirable targets along the way, from the special limited editions and collaborations to beloved Retro returns and promising new designs and innovations. There were even a few certified sleeper hits that organically carved out their place among the year’s best releases. Due to an exponentially expanding consumer base and a heightened level of product awareness, you might not have been able to get your hands on every shoe you hunted for in 2012, but there was certainly no shortage of solid alternatives ripe for the picking in their absence.

With last Friday’s release of the Air Jordan XI ‘Bred’ marking the fourth overall release of the shoe, it seems like an appropriate time to look back at an original pair – the same joints MJ wore while leading the Bulls to an unparalleled 72-10 record and 4th NBA Championship. If you notice, these XIs didn’t require a special box, but a simple black/red Nike box of that era. Another tidbit of info regarding the Bred XI is that Japan got a separate release of these, which came with slightly altered serial numbers on the tag as well as a black tissue paper. The asking price for this vintage gem is rather fair, so peep the gallery below and head to the listing from f211s on eBay.

The initial news of the Staple Design x Jordan Brand project whipped up quite a bit of speculation, with folks all around the internet chipping in with their two cents. It looks like we’re just now getting a full view of the project, with the final product being this slick smoking jacket crafted to match with the Air Jordan XI ‘Bred’. The official shots obscure the Staple branding but this appears to be the very same one recently previewed by headman Jeff Staple.

We’re finally here folks: the Air Jordan XI ‘Bred’ releases tomorrow. Can it maintain the fever pitch excitement that the previous string of Christmas-time Air Jordan XI releases generated? While there are a lot more folks checking for retro Air Jordans each successive year, it’s worth mentioning that of the recent crop (including the ‘Space Jam’, ‘Cool Grey’, and ‘Concord’) the ‘Bred’ pictured here has had the shortest turn around between this release and the last one (that would be the ‘Countdown Pack’ pair in 2008). Let us know if you’re gonna be grabbing them and look for this Air Jordan XI in stores tomorrow, December 21st at spots like Primitive or right now on eBay.

The Mayans were right that something big was going to happen on 12/21/12, but even those ancient math masters couldn’t have predicted a formula like 72-10 = perfection. That happened sixteen years ago when Tinker Hatfield produced one of the most cherished of all Air Jordan designs for what happened to be the greatest team effort in NBA history. Michael Jordan’s return to dominance was punctuated by a fourth Championship won in this ‘Bred’ Air Jordan XI, a masterpiece whose influence cannot be overstated; a celebrated Retro release in 2001, a surprising ‘package’ delivery in 2008, and another singular re-issue on Friday quickly summarizes the Bred XI’s journey to store shelves, and while this lovely gallery presented to you by Sneaker News reiterates something we’ve known for some time (which is where we’ve gotta be on Friday morning), it should only finalize the notion that the Air Jordan XI ‘Bred’ just might be the greatest of all-time.
