2017 Jordan Release Appraisal

Air Jordan 11 Retro Low University Blue (2017)

This is a pair of Air Jordan 11 Retro Low sneakers in the 'University Blue' (also known as 'Columbia') colorway. The shoes feature a low-top silhouette characterized by a white leather upper and the iconic wrap-around patent leather mudguard in a vibrant University Blue. The construction includes a webbed lacing system with thick white rope laces, a white padded mesh tongue, and a light blue fabric strip across the middle of the tongue featuring Jumpman branding. The design is finished with a white midsole and an icy translucent rubber outsole, which has significantly yellowed due to age-related oxidation. Condition assessment: These shoes show signs of heavy wear. Notable issues include significant scuffing and dark staining on the blue patent leather at the toe boxes, substantial yellowing/patina of the outsoles, and visible dirt and discoloration on the white leather uppers, laces, and inner linings. There is evidence of creasing at the flex points of the patent leather. This specific model was released in 2017 as a retro of a classic 2001 colorway, reflecting late 20th-century basketball style adapted for contemporary lifestyle wear.
