Air Jordan 11

Released November 1995 Head Designer: Tinker Hatfield
The legendary Air Jordan 11 was first released for for 1995-96 season. The Air Jordan 11 are the most famous and most popular model of the Air Jordan line.
If Jordan was back, so was Tinker Hatfield. A terrific design with a new patent leather and the return of the clear rubber sole made the Air Jordan 11 the most appreciated Air Jordan model ever released.
But when the design stunned everyone, the durability and quality was disappointing. Again the clear rubber soles easily yellowed and the patent leather also tended to crack up and/or easily get scratched. Top design - lacking quality.
With the Air Jordan 11 we also saw the return of low-tops. Something that would follow the Air Jordan’s all the way to the Jordan 21s (though skipping the OG Jordan 12’s).
