Air Jordan XI Retro - White/Concord/Black - CONFIRMED - Holiday 2011

[jfmartimcdandruff]

I don't get why people ASSUME that we will buy the sneakers...at least I don't...and i'm pretty sure everybody else won't....just because you see this thread pop up with 100 pages of pickup pictures, it doesn't mean the people who didn't like them bought it...so stop with the assumptions.

You don't need a ruler or calculus to see the difference fam

BronLe...the original XI's will be just fine. They don't crumble like the III-VIII....those are a different story

can't believe I did it...but just pullled the trigger with salmdunk on a size 11...

came out t 278 shipped, which is about $65 over retail and tax/shipping....

I know Jay is legit and the only concern is shipping and the minor glue stains one can expect...


will try and score a pair or two at retail and I'm done NT....been waiting way too long to get my hands on a pair of Concord XI (my first pair back in '96)

 

[coldcity]

my girl just got pissed @ me i told her im gettin 3 of these (around $570) but would only need $400 if she got me one as a Christmas gift 

 

[fijiloo]

^^ Im about to do the same thing.

I'm saying bro in 10 years, you won't be able to wear 2000s, just as you can't wear 4's from 1989. So eventually the things we consider Retros will be the OG's, just as some dudes consider the 5's and such from 2000 "OG's" (although that's partly because of the Nike Air, but that's another topic) even though it wasn't the first time they came out...

People still rock OG's no problem.  If you know how to store them, it won't be a problem.   OG 1's are still being worn til this day.
Those OG XI's ninjahood pics you posted are beat to hell, of course the sole is gonna come off  

 

[bence23]

I still find it very very hard to believe the shoe is not in production yet. Its damn near august.

 

[erick10]

$180 + Cali tax = $198 

#+% Jordan Brand. This is @#%%+#$%. 

I will buy them but I will be smh thinking, "I'm buying some Js that will sit in the closet, that money could have been for something better"

THIS..............nobody I know calls 00 Vs "OGs", but I know what you're getting at, but still imo it was a silly thing to say, especially on NT.

You must just made that up. I ain't never heard nobody in my life call any retro's from any year "OG's".

Dude, sole separation is repairable. I did it myself with
All my 2000/2001 xi retros and eben the og xiii.
Ive. Been wearing them a lot since gluing them
Together and so far all ok for several months.

Btw, retros will never become originals,
Even if they are made 99,9% identical.
Best retros were made from 1994 to 2000.
Since 2001 the retro jordans were never
Close to the ogs. And sometimes very
Disappointing.

NEED SOME HELP FROM THE PROS ON GETTING SHOES

any tips, suggestions or tricks on what are the best possibilities of scoring these without going to the stores (online, phone,etc...)

what are the best sites to buy online?
best companies to call?

best way to try and buy these when they release.
cause i wanna cop 3 pairs.

i started collecting just recently and never have tried copping in huge releases like this.
im kinda scared i gonna miss out and then have to get my !+! handed to me with resellers
any help will be appreciated.

thanks

 

[raidercb5]

So from reading the last few pages....Air-Randy and VMV Inc no bueno cause hey are "high quality B-Grades"
Slamdunkspace is legit no b-grades? What about marqueesole? Never bought off these sites cause I've always been skeptical any one clear this up for me, thanks!

 

[million dollar stacks]

The Patent cut on the 2011 Model doesn't bother me at all. It isn't that low compared to the 2000 Retro. In fact I like em' a lot & I think the new 2011 Model looks better than the OG's AND the 2000's. I can't wait to see em' in person Great Job By JB!

dude, the pic in the middle is rather a customized, fake or PSed DMP XI! Look at the jumpman and the patent cutting!
The patent cut of the 2000/2001 XI had a slightly higher cut and the outsoles are never that icy clear but rather dull

with yellow tint from the start.

If the 2011 looks like the latest MN pic, it would be still good. But the pic by kicks-lab is quite shocking!

   THanks for correcting that!

Kids sizes.

 

[jordanize84]

Hey y'all when do you think we'll see more pics of these bad boy's? (as many as they've been made). I gotta felling we gonna see some more pics of these in a couple of weeks!

 

[nukleup]

I'm making my own version of these in my garage as we speak. I'll have pics. up soon.....

 

[asu42]

Cant believe this thread is 116 pages long and shoe does not drop for almost another 5 months.

Exactly...but life is short and you need to stop and think, "How mad am I going to be if I don't get a pair?" For me, getting my favorite Jordans is a hobby so I have to get a pair of these (unless JB kills the shoes i.e. Ashy Flu Game XII).
