Air Jordan 11 Black Friday 2026: Retro High, Low and Colorways

The Air Jordan 11 is the 1995 model known for its glossy patent leather mudguard, and for Black Friday 2026 the main choices are the high Retro or the Retro Low, the colorway, and the size. Start with the cut, since it changes how the shoe looks and wears, then confirm the colorway on the box label.

What sets the Air Jordan 11 apart

The patent leather wrap around the lower half of the shoe is the part most people recognize. It sits on a mesh upper, with a carbon fiber plate under the foot and a translucent outsole, often called the icy sole. Patent leather was chosen because it is lighter than regular leather and stretches less, so it keeps the foot steady.

For how the Air Jordan 11 fits into the wider line, see the Jordan Brand guide.

Retro or Retro Low

The Retro is the full height shoe and the closest to the original 1995 design. It reads as a dressier sneaker and pairs well with dark jeans or trousers.

The Retro Low removes the ankle collar. It still has the patent leather and the icy sole, but it sits lower and suits shorts and warm weather. A separate low shoe called the IE Low also dates from the 1990s; it is a different design, so check the exact name in a listing title.

Colorways you will see named

Air Jordan 11 colorways carry nicknames, and listings often use the nickname rather than the official color name. A few of the long-running ones:

Because the same nickname can cover pairs made years apart, the style code and release year on the box label are the best way to tell which version a listing shows.

Size and fit

Do not carry a size over from another Jordan model without checking. The Air Jordan 11 has a different shape from the Air Jordan 1, and patent leather does not stretch much as it breaks in. Look at whether a listing uses men’s, women’s or grade school sizing, and match the size in the title with the size on the box label in the photos.

Five things to confirm before you buy

1. The condition says new, and the photos show the real pair, not stock images.
2. The style name and colorway in the title match the box label.
3. The patent leather, stitching and sole look like the maker’s product photos.
4. The seller has a strong feedback record.
5. The returns policy is stated plainly.
