The Air Jordan 11 Retro Premium 'Grey Suede' was an unexpected and limited release on November 11, 2016, at exactly 11:11 am. It quickly sold out, prompting a wider release in December of the same year. This particular version of the sneaker abandons the traditional patent leather and ballistic nylon construction for a stylish and high-quality grey suede upper that features a debossed Jumpman logo. Notably, this version lacks the usual patent leather, #23 branding on the heel, and 'Jordan Jumpman' wording on the tongue that are characteristic of the Air Jordan 11 silhouette.
