The Air Jordan XI sneakers are the most popular sneakers in the Air Jordan line and were created in 1995 by noted designer and Air Jordan I creator Tinker Hatfield in the hopes that Jordan would return to basketball after he embarked on career in minor league baseball. Hall of Fame basketball legend Michael Jordan would return to the Chicago Bulls in 1995 and immediately fall in love with the Jordan XI’s and would wear them during the 1996 All-Star Game, the NBA Finals where the Bulls would win the first of three titles for their second three-peat, and in the movie “Space Jam”, elevating the sneaker to new heights not seen before by the brand. Nike has frequently released retro versions of the sneaker over the past 20 years, with the retro versions selling out within minutes.

Presented here are a pair of signed Air Jordan XI size 13 Retro sneakers featuring the “Bred” colorway of red, white, and black, and are Nike’s best-selling sneaker in the entire history of the company and sold out in 28 minutes when they debuted in 2019. The patent leather mudguard around the sneakers shines brightly and gives the sneaker a formal look.  The iconic Nike “JUMPMAN” is embroidered in red on outside ankle of each sneaker. “JORDAN JUMPMAN” tags appear in red and silver on the tongue of each sneaker. Black rubber on the soles is encased in a red translucent carbon fiber spring plate. Jordan signed the toe box of the right sneaker with a silver metallic paint pen. The sneakers are in pristine condition and show no signs of wear. The 15 x 10-inch original box is black with a gray and silver pattern. The signed Air Jordan XI Retro sneakers come with an COA from Upper Deck Authentics (SHO42300).
