2024: Air Jordan 11 Retro 'Columbia/Legend Blue' 

The 2024 edition of the Air Jordan 11 Retro 'Columbia/Legend Blue' brings back an OG colorway of the championship model. Laces feed through webbing eyelets to secure the white leather upper, bolstered with a tonal patent leather mudguard and marked with a blue embroidered Jumpman on the lateral collar. Contrasting black accents land on the interior lining and back tab, featuring signature '23' branding. A white Phylon midsole packs a full-length Air-sole unit for lightweight cushioning. Underfoot, a blue-tinged translucent rubber outsole reveals a carbon fiber shank plate for midfoot stability.

2021: Air Jordan 11 Retro Low 'Legend Blue'

The Air Jordan 11 Retro Low ‘Legend Blue’ delivers a low-top edition of the OG colorway that Michael Jordan unveiled at the 1996 NBA All-Star Game. The build is faithful to the original mid-top, featuring a white leather upper with a tonal patent leather mudguard and ballistic mesh tongue. A blue embroidered Jumpman at the heel gives the nod to MJ’s alma mater, while a ‘25’ stamped on the sockliner references the 25th anniversary of the shoe’s worldwide debut.

2014: Air Jordan 11 Retro 'Legend Blue'

The 2014 edition of the Air Jordan 11 Retro ‘Legend Blue’ brings back an OG colorway from 1996. Famously worn by Michael Jordan during that year’s NBA All-Star Game — his first following a short-lived retirement from the game — the mid-top features blue accents inspired by His Airness’ alma mater. They stand out against an all-white leather backdrop, including the 11’s signature patent leather mudguard. A matching white Phylon midsole is fitted with a full-length Air unit and supported by an icy translucent outsole.

2018: Air Jordan 11 Football Cleat ‘Columbia’

Geared for the football field, the 11 cleat borrows inspiration from Michael Jordan’s playing days at North Carolina, featuring a mostly white upper in mesh and patent leather, while baby blue accents the outsole’s cleat pattern.

2001: Air Jordan 11 Retro 'Columbia' 

This Air Jordan 11 is a 2001 retro of the 1996 Jordan 11 ‘Columbia’ first laced up by Michael Jordan during the 1996 NBA All-Star Game. Inspired by Jordan’s uniform with the University of North Carolina Tar Heels, the design combines a mesh and white leather upper with white patent leather overlays, Columbia Blue accents, a black lining and an icy translucent outsole.

2001: Air Jordan 11 Retro Low 'Columbia'

The Air Jordan 11 Retro Low 'Columbia' was released in 2001 and immediately found success because of its design and intricate attention to detail. The low-top features a white leather upper with a traditional lace closure and wires along the sides for extra structure. The sneaker also sports a padded collar for comfort and, most prominently, patent Columbia Blue details along the mudguard and on the tongue label.

1996: Air Jordan 11 OG 'Columbia'

The ‘Columbia’ edition of the Air Jordan 11 was an original colorway when the shoe dropped in 1996, however Michael Jordan would only ever wear the design during that year’s NBA All-Star Game. Featuring a white upper, patent leather mudguard and Columbia Blue accents, the sneaker reflects the colors of Jordan’s University of North Carolina alma mater. His number 23 appears on the heel.
