Official Jordan XI Thread

with those scuff marks, creasing, outsole condition and stress marks, I wouldn't even buy it above $100. shoe is clearly used a couple of times and undergone some treatment.
There is literally not one scuff on the shoes , that lighting from pic , zero stress marks and zero creasing

Those are perfect. How the hell they store em? In a fire safe? :lol: Seriously though, the outsoles look release day new. JB needs to look at this CLOSELY.
I wondered the same thing. Sole swap? I've never seen an OG pair of any XI be able to keep its outsole from changing over time. Sure, some are way better than others depending on storage conditions, but these look brand new. The patent and lace loops have yellowed, too, which makes it even more suspect that somehow the sole hasn't.

Could it be possible to take from the newer self lacing 11? Thats the only 11 that have those perfect blue outsoles I think. All original or not though, those up there are fire as hell.

I’ve seen a few pairs of OG Columbias keep their sole close to perfect. Something about how they colored that particular OG sole.

Y'all have good and valid points about the outsoles of the XI getting discolored with age, specifically fading, because it's pretty much an unfortunate formality.

My initial post for the creation of this thread corroborates that as evidenced in the photos I shared of my Black/Red XI from 1996.

Wow. I know you can unyellow shoes with similar products and UV "ovens" like that, but I never would've thought the BLUE tint would magically return after all these years. I'd have expected them to basically just come out with clear soles.
 
I actually posted that I wish they released the Vikings-themed XI (white/purple/yellow) that Randy Moss wore on field several pages back.

Wtf are those

Dad shoes.
These new CMFT XIs are straight awful (just talking about the way they look). The original CMFT XIs from what, a decade or whatever ago, I could actually rock with. I had the gray/carbon fiber pair, I think I caught them on sale for $60-70ish. I wore those into the ground. That was a clean, versatile shoe in general in multiple colorways. They should've just brought those back instead of this ugly-*** design.
