Continuing with their daily celebration of the brand's iconic game shoe series as we near the launch of the new Air Jordan XX8, Jordan Brand highlights perhaps its most loved model today: the Air Jordan XI.

Check out this display-only Black / Lime Green colorway of the XI that Jordan unveiled earlier this morning. Would you want to see these release?
