Out of left field comes a patriotic, space-themed rendition of the popular Air Jordan 11 basketball sneakers which, coincidentally, comes at a timely chapter in space travel with the successful landing of SpaceX’s reusable Falcon 9 rocket. Most notably, the upper features a bombastic mix of stars and stripes, with a gold embossed Jumpman logo adorning the ankle quarter while a graphic print of the moon’s surface adorning the mudguard. A white speckled midsole and icy blue outsole round out the sneaker, in keeping with the lunar aesthetic.
sivadescalzo has a countdown for the Air Jordan 11 “Moon Landing” for December 28, which also happens to be ‘el Día de los Santos Inocentes’ or the Spanish equivalent of April Fool’s Day, so we’ll have to wait until then to see whether these are the real deal or not.
