Air Jordan 11 "Win Like 96"

A few weeks ago, Jordan Brand teased us with the release of the 2017 Holiday Collection lookbook. And among the many surprises that Nike’s branch wants to make us find under the Christmas tree, there also are a pair of Air Jordan 11 “Win like ’96”. The sneaker celebrates one of Michael’s many successes, in this case, the one that he got in 1996 NBA Finals, just a year after his comeback in the league following his first retirement due to his father’s assassination. It was an important championship, the fourth of His Airness’ career, that is represented by a red and white colorway to home the Chicago Bulls, with the number 23 embroidered on the heel.

The shoe is constructed from a mesh and patent leather gym red upper, white midsole, and translucent cool-blue outsole. The Jordan branding, on the side and insole of the shoe, and the MJ’s number 23 are black, competing the iconic Chicago Bulls coloring. The Air Jordan 11 “Win Like ’96” will be available in all family sizes at select Jordan Brand retailers and nike.com for $220 USD on December 9.
