The 7 Best Air Jordan 11 Colorways of All Time

Very few sneakers have had the same longevity and significance as the Air Jordan 11. Even as time passes, the original silhouette remains a favourite in the Jordan range. Let’s look at 20 of the most popular Air Jordan 11 colourways that have made this stunning sneaker a must-have.

Air Jordan 11 “Columbia/Legend Blue”

When the Air Jordan 11 was first released in 1996, one of the original colourways was the white and blue “Columbia” version. This sneaker was worn by Michael Jordan at the NBA All-Star Game that same year, a game where the GOAT happened to take home the MVP award.

Air Jordan 11 “Gamma Blue”

In 2013, Jordan Brand introduced the “Gamma Blues” to the Air Jordan 11 line. This mainly black colourway is a step away from the classic white-midsole Air Jordan 11s, but that hasn’t stopped fans from embracing this unique look.

Air Jordan 11 “Bred”

Another iconic Jordan 11 sneaker strongly linked to Michael Jordan’s time on the court is the “Bred” colourway. These sneakers were worn by the basketball star during the 1996 NBA Finals win and have since become a classic in the model’s lineup.

The Air Jordan 11 Retro Premium “Grey Suede” was first made available as a surprise limited edition release during the 2016 holiday season. Thankfully, Jordan Brand chose to restock the sneaker later that same year, as the stunning suede sneaker sold out in a matter of minutes.

The “Cool Grey” Jordan 11 may not be an OG colourway, but that hasn’t stopped the grey and white sneakers from reaching legendary status. In fact, many sneakerheads would place them in their top 5 Air Jordan 11 colourways of all time. 

Air Jordan 11 “Cap and Gown”

In 2018, Jordan fans were given the opportunity to flaunt the “Cap and Gown” colourway during graduation season. The sneaker has rope laces that resemble graduation cords, a metal Jumpman emblem and a blacked-out suede appearance.

Air Jordan 11 “Pantone”

The striking “University Blue” colour of the Air Jordan 11 “Pantone” pays homage to Michael Jordan’s time with the North Carolina Tar Heels. The sneaker was first unveiled as part of a sample set at the World Basketball Festival in 2010, but it quickly gained popularity, leading Jordan Brand to include it in its ‘Ultimate Gift of Flight Pack’ in 2014.

Air Jordan 11 “Concord”

The “Concord” is widely recognised as one of the best sneakers ever made, let alone one of the best Air Jordan 11 colourways. It was the first AJ 11 worn by Michael Jordan during the 1995-1996 NBA season, despite violating NBA uniform restrictions at the time. For more details: Sneaker Fortress

Air Jordan 11 “Derek Jeter”

In the AJ11 lineup, few colourways are as rare (and pricey) as the “Derek Jeter” edition. This colourway was designed as an homage to the renowned New York Yankees shortstop after his retirement. Only five pairs were made available via a scratch-off lottery system.

Air Jordan 11 “Space Jam”

Even if the XI “Space Jam” wasn’t released among the other legendary colourways in 1995, its iconic status cannot be questioned. This pair was originally created as a player-exclusive colourway for Michael Jordan, but thanks to the sheer demand for these beautiful kicks following the Space Jam film, it was eventually made available to the general public in 2000.

Air Jordan 11 “Win Like 96”

In 2017, Jordan Brand chose to remember (and celebrate) the Chicago Bulls’ 1996 championship with the release of this predominantly red AJ 11 sneaker. The shoe reverses the iconic “Bred” colour blocking and adds an icy translucent outsole for a fresh touch.

Another celebratory Jordan sneaker that dropped in 2017 is the “Win Like 82” AJ11. This colourway honours Michael Jordan’s NCAA title-winning shot for the Tar Heels back in 1982 and, as such, taps into the university’s traditional white, Carolina blue, and midnight navy colour scheme.

Air Jordan 11 Adapt “White”

Even though the Air Jordan 11 Adapt “White” is technically a modernised version of the original design, it still has the overall look that fans love. The sneaker’s upper is made of a semi-translucent fabric with a white patent leather overlay.

Air Jordan 11 Low “Tuxedo”

While the AJ 11 Low cut may not appeal to everyone, the “Tuxedo” colourway definitely has the potential to sway opinion. The white patent leather mudguard and black mesh uppers flip the colour blocking of the “Concord” colourway, making it feel both familiar and fresh at the same time.

Air Jordan 11 “Heiress Night Maroon”

Kids-exclusive colourway or not, this velvety maroon Jordan 11 is one for the books. This design was released in 2016 as part of an Heiress pack. Here we are in 2025, and I’m still hoping Jordan Brand will offer this colourway in adult sizes.

Back in November 2017, Jordan Brand decided the kids were getting some heat too, and dropped the Air Jordan 11 Retro Premium GS ‘Heiress’. Built just for girls (sorry, guys), this pair skipped the usual patent leather in favour of rich black suede and a glittery leather mudguard that basically sparkled like it had something to prove. Gold embroidery on the heel shows off MJ’s number like a royal seal of approval. And underneath? A plush white midsole wrapped in a semi-translucent black outsole that kept things comfy without losing the drama. Honestly, this should have released in adult sizes too.

Air Jordan 11 Retro ‘Platinum Tint’

The Air Jordan 11 Retro ‘Platinum Tint’ pulled a bold move in 2018. It ditched the glossy patent leather that made the silhouette famous. Instead, Jordan Brand went full matte with a mix of nubuck and ballistic mesh dressed in a soft Platinum Tint. Clean, simple, grown-up. But just when you think it’s all calm and neutral, boom! University Red hits the tongue piping and Jumpman logo like a well-placed jab. It’s minimal without being boring, and honestly, it felt like the AJ11 grew up, got a job, and started drinking black coffee.

Wmns Air Jordan 11 Low ‘Yellow Snakeskin’

The Women’s Air Jordan 11 Low ‘Yellow Snakeskin’ didn’t come to play. It came to stand out. Swapping the usual patent leather for a bold python-print mudguard, this pair slaps you with sunshine in the form of bright yellow wrapped around the base. The upper keeps it clean with smooth white leather and matching webbing eyelets, while that same yellow pops again on the heel Jumpman and sockliner like a well-placed highlighter. Underfoot, you get full-length Air in a Phylon midsole and a carbon fiber plate for that extra spring in your step. It’s beautiful!

Air Jordan 11 Retro Low ‘Closing Ceremony’

Dropped in August 2016, the Air Jordan 11 Retro Low ‘Closing Ceremony’ was Jordan Brand’s way of saying, “Yeah, we won gold too.” Inspired by the Rio Summer Olympics, this low-top flexes a crisp white mesh upper paired with flashy gold patent leather overlays. Black hits on the lining and tongue keep it grounded, while an icy blue translucent outsole cools things off just enough.

Wmns Air Jordan 11 Retro ‘Olive Lux’

The Women’s Air Jordan 11 Retro ‘Neapolitan’ took one look at your favourite ice cream and said, “Yeah, we can make that wearable.” With a clean white leather upper, soft webbing eyelets, and a glossy chocolate-brown patent mudguard, it’s basically the sneaker version of a dessert flex. The pink-tinted translucent outsole? That’s the strawberry swirl. Add in the embroidered Jumpman on the collar and a crisp ‘23’ on the heel tab, and you’ve got a sweet combo of flavour and nostalgia.
