Is the 11 the last truly-great Jordan? It's a bold claim but there may be evidence for the AJ11 being the last sneaker in the Jordan franchise to possess genre-bending, culture-shifting influence beyond the court.
There were definitely great models before the XI, but it's hard to think of a Jordan model which wields major clout after them. To this day 11's are still a Christmas tradition, from Concords and BREDs to Space Jams and a myriad of contemporary special editions.
Something about these makes us think they would've been a banger 20 years ago—the sort of thing people would be looking for decades later. Thankfully that's not the case and you can get these, for now at least.
