Likely the most anticipated sneaker of 2014 for many, we finally have official images and release info for the ‘Legend Blue’ Air Jordan XI (11).
The Legend Blue color is a slight variation of the Columbia Blue color that was originally released on a white Jordan 11 back in 1996 when Michael himself debuted this colorway during the NBA All-Star Game that year. I doubt anyone interested in this sneaker will mind the change in hue.
The first NBA player to lace these up on the hardwood surprisingly not a Jordan Brand-sponsored player but rookie guard for the Dallas Mavericks Ricky Ledo during the pre-season which leaves me to wonder the sneaker’s authenticity; Air Jordan 11 is one of the most bootlegged silhouettes ever and this particular colorway has very high quality fakes around. Buyer beware.
The Air Jordan XI (11) – ‘Legend Blue’ releases on December 20th for $200 on the Nike webstore at 8 AM as well as select Jordan Brand retailers. Good luck securing a pair.
