Jordan 11 Low Infrared 23

Nike and Jordan have combined to create great sneakers in the recent months. With the latest idea out, Jordan has kept up with the competition. They have been releasing retros from the collection 1-23. Not all have made the release list but some of the most popular shoes have and many sneaker heads are excited. Jordan 11 have been said to be one of the most popular in the series and is personally my favorite shoe in the collection. They have slowly been releasing them, usually a pair a month so far. The concord colorway, what the shoe is known for, released last month and was a huge hit. They sold out in local stores. This month they are featuring a Infared colorway that is a bit similar to the concord but has its own touch.It features a black shiny leather on the tip of the toe and sides of the much like the concord. Instead of white, the upper portion of the shoe is a dull black to separate from the leather. Like any other Jordan 11, there is a white strip that is located in the middle of the tongue that says Jumpman Jordan vertically. In the back of the shoe, a tiny white patch is near the heal with infrared dots sprinkled with in it. Also in the space is the usually 23 in the traditionally font they used. To finish it off, the sole is a translucent clear with red spots on the heal and tip of the shoe with a Jordan logo in the middle.In my opinion, I like these shoes very much. They caught my attention when I first saw them. They are one of my favorite 11 to come out so far this year.This shoe will be released on June 14 at a price of $150.

Nike Lebron 11 Everglades (EE)


Although the releases of the Lebron elites are becoming popular, color ways of the original Lebron 11's are still being produced. They have gotten great feed back this year and have had a great success selling. They are one of the most popular collections out on the shelves right now. The newest color way that is being produced as we speak is called the Lebron 11 everglades. In this shoe, it features a black base with different colored panels surrounding it. With in these panels, colors such as black, grey and mint are mixed in a pattern. This pattern consists of these colors in a staggered formation looking like a flower pattern, at least to me. As said before, their are panels that wrap around the shoe only covering certain spots of the shoe. Mint is also featured in the lace locks making it match the pattern used around the shoe. The Nike logo and the Lebron logo are both matching in silver. The sole of the shoe is a translucent ice blue adding more look to the shoe. In my opinion, I don't like these shoe as much as other Lebron shoes. I think they are to plain for my liking. I like colors that pop out and are a little more vibrant. The colors in this shoe are too bland and could not picture myself wearing these. As a sneaker head, I like to match my shirt with my shoes and wearing these colors throughout my outfit would make it too boring and would not pop out. Despite my opinion, If interseted in these shoes, they will be in stores on May 31st and a price of $200.
