A legendary piece in the sneaker world, the Air Jordan 11 Low « Space Jam » has roots deep in basketball and pop culture history. This iconic shoe is inspired by the 1996 film « Space Jam, » which starred Michael Jordan alongside beloved Looney Tunes characters. The upcoming release promises to capture the essence of the original while introducing subtle yet significant updates.
The design pays homage to the original with a simple black and white color scheme reminiscent of the OG, but with a fresh twist. Instead of the classic purple accents, the new iteration features varsity royal hits. This change adds a contemporary touch while maintaining the nostalgic feel that fans love.
One of the outstanding elements of the Air Jordan 11 Low « Space Jam » is its construction. The shoe features a patent leather mudguard that not only adds a touch of sophistication, but also enhances durability. The mesh upper provides breathability and comfort, making it perfect for both casual and athletic activities. In addition, the full-length Air sole unit provides exceptional cushioning, making every step feel like walking on air. The icy blue translucent outsole adds style and traction.
Signature details such as the Jumpman logo and the number « 23 » on the heel remain integral to the design, paying tribute to Michael Jordan’s legacy. These elements, combined with the overall aesthetic, make the Air Jordan 11 Low « Space Jam » a must-have for any sneaker collector.
The history of the Space Jam Air Jordan 11 is as rich as its design. The original Air Jordan 11 « Space Jam » never saw a release in the ’90s, making its debut in 2000. The demand for this iconic sneaker led to subsequent releases in 2009 and 2016, each of which sold out quickly and left fans wanting more.
The upcoming release date for the Air Jordan 11 Low « Space Jam » is set for May 18, 2024. Sneakerheads can expect to find them at SNKRS and select Jordan Brand retailers. The shoes will be available in full family sizes with prices set at $190 for adult sizes, $150 for middle school sizes, $80 for preschool sizes and $60 for toddler sizes.
