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?
