Few gems that I'd never seen before...
Not Mike, but I've never seen this pic of Chuck wearing CG XI's.
Around this time is when ol’ Chuck’s line started to really take off simply because he was an active player...Fairly unbelievable but at the time kids didn’t want a signature shoe for an athlete that wasn’t actually playing, be it Michael Jordan or anybody else...

Good looking out, thanks. What model is this though? I personally think they’re pretty nice.

Hey thanks man, I would easily pick these up if they re-release. LOL at a team shoe in 1999 having vastly superior visible quality of leather compared to today’s “remastered” retros at nearly double the cost. SMHJumpman Team Post.
Yes, in the 1996 Eastern conference finals against the Magic:Sorry if already asked before. Did MJ ever wear the XI IE lows in a game? And if so what colorways?

/\ Playoffs against the Knicks in 96
Against the Knicks in the 1996 Semi-Finals as well... peep the OG smoked outsolesYes, in the 1996 Eastern conference finals against the Magic:
Sir Charles...One of the best to ever do it...
Kind of on the subject of Mr. Barkley, a lot of younger sneaker heads don’t realize that when Mike retired for the first time his shoe line kind of went through the floor...The retro run Nike did was a failure and they specifically told Tinker to leave the line alone...They were going to let it die out...Tinker took it upon himself to work on the X and XI without the approval of his higher up’s...

F that kid, peep those OG 2 lows
Jordan is about to go game 7 on that kid's shot. I hope he pump faked.
none of em haveXI IE's have NEVER been retro'd correctly. This was sooooo annoying over the last 15 years because I LOVED this shoe back in like 95/96.
Yes he did, in the 1996 Eastern conference semi finals he broke them out ... had arguably his best playoff game in them too besides game 4 of the ECF and game 3 of the Finals ...Sorry if already asked before. Did MJ ever wear the XI IE lows in a game? And if so what colorways?
Correct.MJ debuted the XI IE low in game 1 against the Knicks that year. Going into the series with back spasms resulting from Game 2 against the Heat in the 1st round. He ended up dropping 44 I believe.

I think the 2003 retros were pretty decent.
W WhiteKyrie or wikikyrie; nice readYes he did, in the 1996 Eastern conference semi finals he broke them out ... had arguably his best playoff game in them too besides game 4 of the ECF and game 3 of the Finals ...
Game 3 in New York the Knicks were being ultra physical and Oakley was punking and intimidating MJ’s supporting cast. Pippen was putrid offensively as he typically was in the second three peat.
Jordan dropped 46 in the IE low, embarrassed Bonner hard core on a pump fake post up pivot move, broke his ankles really ... check out the highlights. Oh and he hit a major clutch 3 to put the game into OT. Bulls just couldn’t hang on, no production from anyone else.
But this notion that Kobe, or even Arenas started the low top basketball shoe trend is absolutely ridiculous. Mike wore lows in the playoffs with the II’s, XI’s, and XIII’s. Well before either of those guys did. He was always trying to be quicker especially in the playoffs after a season full of wear and tear.
Wore the XI IE low quite a few times that playoffs until he rolled his ankle game 3 vs Orlando and went back to the mids. But did break out some lows in the Finals with patent leather and not the IE though.
Still waiting on a proper retro of the playoff XI IE low.
