Jordan gifts us the Air Jordan XI ‘Bred’ for the Holidays

It’s confirmed.

Over the last decade, Jordan Brand’s been celebrating the holidays with the release of Air Jordan XI. Whether it were special colorways or the more iconic ones, Christmases have been so much sweeter with the XIs. This holiday season, we’re treated to the third official colorway of the Air Jordan XI. The ‘Black/True Red-White’ aka ‘Bred’ were first seen on court back in April 1996 and makes its return for the first time since 2012.

What makes the Bred XIs so special? Aside from being on the feet of the GOAT during the 1996 Postseason, the Bred XIs mirrored MJ’s greatness. While a lot of people love the Concords, the Breds just reminds everyone of those glory days when MJ patrolled the lanes and ruled the NBA. Earlier today, the shoe dropped via the SNKRS app but will see a wider release come December 14 in full family sizing. For now, let’s just reminisce and celebrate the greatness of this grail-worthy pair.
