Matt Varga Sneakerheads of a certain age — and truly anyone who’s read our coverage — know that the Holiday Air Jordan 11 is a tradition almost like no other: the fixation of media outlets as sneaker campouts broke containment and made national headlines, and appointment viewing for any Jumpman devotee. Beginning toward the end of the 2010s, Jordan Brand bolstered their foothold in Q4 by adding a yearly “Singles Day” release, bringing us to the Air Jordan 11 “Pearl” in 2025.
At first glance, the Air Jordan 11 “Pearl” delivers a cleaned-up take on the championship-winning silhouette, coated head to toe in various off-white shades. However, the title is instructive in this case, made good with a pearlescent finish through the mudguard, a literal pearl hangtag, and wide ribbon laces that lean into its core demo and the overall delicate atmosphere this edition delivers. Notably, this variation adds texture to the patent leather mudguard for one of the first times, breaking from the shining arrangement that the model has been known for since the GOAT himself laced ’em up.
The shoe was officially revealed by the brand along with the North American regional run for Houston, Atlanta, and Vegas; the Jordan 11 “Gamma Blue,” and the Jordan 11 “China” and “Tokyo” — getting Asia-exclusive drops to end 2025 and begin 2026, respectively. All of that makes for an earnestly unprecedented spotlight on the AJ11 this year, a far cry from the once-a-year cadence the model had a decade-plus back. Again, with its “Singles Day” release, this colorway joins a lineage of women’s pairs that includes the “Midnight Navy,” “Animal Instinct,” “Neapolitan,” and “Bred Velvet.”

Yes, the Air Jordan 11 “Pearl” will only be dropping in women’s sizing, expected to cap out at W12 (equivalent to M10.5). We’ll leave the hard fashion choices for unisex wear to each individual, but this shoe will be dropping in more limited sizing than your average Retro.
