These where my very 1st pair of jordans i grew up poor so I would only be able to barrow my friends and family members jordans when they said it was cool until one day my friend saw how much i loved his 11 columbia's and he gave them to me out the blue I have alot of emotions tied to this shoe thank you guys for your video it reminded of a very special moment in time in my life I shall never forget ❤💯 stay blessed and happy holidays 💯
The 11 is the sneaker that got me into sneakers when I was younger. Was too young to see MJ play in the original models in the 80s, and it’s the 11s I remember seeing him in the most so it has that nostalgia hit for me. That patent leather will always do something to me too, man.

i watched him play in them back in the day and the 11 is my absolute favorite shoe i have all the Og colorways and a few non og. Theres a few i dont care for but these are sick i have 3 2014 pairs and 1 2024 pair @thegameneededme5
Truly a great time to be a real sneakerhead, i was even able to hit on the j4 fears today on the snkrs app which normally would never happen a few months ago 😅
Agreed… the OG 11s are unmatched. For me, a teen in the 90’s - IN CHICAGO - watching him demoralize the league in these, they’re perfect. The 3 was my first “favorite” shoe as a kid in the 80’s, but the Concord 11 was the first shoe I ever fell in love with (first pair I ever doubled up on, just to have one to admire)
Happy this is my first real 11 purchase in building my rotation, I always liked shoes but I just started building my collection, currently got Craft olive & UNC 4’s Along with these absolute heaters Rate my rotation?
11s hit differently. I was thinking about skipping these, due to personal financial goals, but damn, these are worth the sacrifice. Thanks for the review
I'm really on the fence about getting these because I mainly wear wider/bigger pants. Do any of you guys wear J11s with wider Pants or Jeans and have some experiences they wanna share?
Went to my local finishline after work here in San Angelo Texas right around 11:30 went up the employer ask for the these shoes and they said they had plenty for some reason bought them on the spot I just had too!!
NGL, catching this video early Saturday morning with Mr. Foamer and Sir Buckets gave me the same feelings as we get on that holiday J11 release. It’s a little nippy here in SoCal so definitely getting into the season of things…
FINALLY!!! Old weirdo score champ Buckets FINALLY gives out a 10 on an iconic sneaker!!! I have not seen all your videos but watch a lot of them and I have never seen him hand out a 10. My Monday is complete, THANK YOU BUCKETS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Haven’t picked up any Retro 11’s in about 10 years - the way the prices have been going was going to pass on these too. Have to say much nicer in hand, was glad to get them. The simplicity really works well for different type outfits too (shorts/jeans/sweats). Worth it I think, even with the extra cost.
Can you and buckets consider getting big n tall Tees for us big guys? I’m a 6xlt! Or 5xlt! I would buy every shirt you make! And doubles of most. Love the content! I’ve been a fan for almost 2 years now! I stay watching the Workshop!
@domsmall8614 😂😆🤣 that's awesome my brother... I honestly can't decide myself which one out of the two, these Columbia 11s or the Black Cement 3s that just recently dropped...
@@nharesh185 I snagged 'em both 😌I've recently decided that my collecting needs some structure or I'll quickly run out of storage space... so I decided to focus on only Original Colorways. Then these two originals dropped so close together that they literally arrived on the same day.
These remind me of One of my boys who passed. He had this shoe and I ALWAYS wanted a pair, we were both obsessed with this shoe. Do they fit my style currently? Not so much, but of course I’m gonna grab a pair still!
I have the retro 2014 release and I might cop a new pair, these are my favorite 11s I even still have the original box for these, second favorite are the breds, followed by the concords. I need me a new one lol
Probably the best video I’ve seen I feel like it was me in the video talking to my friend thank you so much both of you and your loved ones much love from Connecticut
The Jordan XI is definitely one of my top Jordan’s in my collection and that I like to wear. Especially during the Fall and Winter season. As always another great review and video!!!! Peace! ✌️
I still have my am pair from the last release. Actually just wore them Monday. This was a brick last time because it was just a hard pair to wear still is. This is a drop like last holiday 11s everyone wants them before or early but once they drop it’s not a needle mover
We need those plastic shoe trees back and the drawer box for the Xmas 🎄 release… makes it feel even more special and it necessary with the $230 price tag..
I feel torn about this newer iteration with the higher cut patent, they just look fugazi with it. That said, I’ve gotten past it for the Concords and Breds and copped. So, guess it doesn’t matter but always feel I have to get it off my chest lol
I think these are a perfect 10, I want to re-up on them but my 2014s still look great. The outsole changing a little but I think I’m cool on getting another pair 10/10🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
This shoes is the very last OG left I need in my collection of Jordan 11's since I missed out on the 2014s Legend Blues (Columbia) and missed on the 2018 Black Cement 3's. I won't miss out on both this time. Time to complete my OG collection. I cannot afford to miss out on these shoes this time around, I have to get them. These 11s don't get retroed like the other OG 11's. So get 'em while you can.
I remember I had these in 1996 and they got scuffed after like 5 wears…I panicked and sold them to my boy for like $20!! lol !! Finally I get another shot at them
I completely agree with you guys on everything here. 11’s in an OG colorway are still some of my favorites, even though I end up wearing 1’s, 3’s & 4’s a lot more. I still wear my Concord’s & Space Jam’s from 2000 (after a full re-glue on each), and I will NEVER get rid of them.
@@CoachKev0731 I replaced the crumbled air unit with a Dr. Scholl’s type of insole and cut it fit. They used barge super stick glue and re-glued it back together. You have to make sure you remove the old glue completely, to get a good stick. I also iced out the soles to get them clear again. So besides the air unit, I was able to keep all the original parts of the shoe. It turned out really good. I was stoked on the results.
Jordan 11s is the shoe that really got me started into falling in love with sneakers and as a sneakerhead I’m a fan of the 3s, 4s, 11s , and 12s but my all time favorite are the 11s and with all that being said I’m definitely getting a pair of these 👍🏼🔥
This is a nostalgic drop for me cause these were the holiday drop when I first got into the game but never copped which will change next month 9.1/10 🥶
Yup exactly, great shoe but so ugly after outsole turns yellow. They should have made the blue sole just like the unc adapt Jordan 11 so it stays blue no matter what.
I copped them today and I'm so happy I've wanted these since 96 but sad now my 11 collection is complete and I'm not sure when I'm gonna buy another pair 🥺
I am a sneaker head and the 11s are in my top 3 as I love the Bred, cool grey, and especially Concords but I just do not love these. It’s more of the colorway maybe but I don’t know… That’s just my opinion
My first Jordan that got me into sneakers was...........the 2014 J14 Black Toe..boy. those some how touched my brain in a way I didn't know was there!! My girl got these in 2014 and guess what your boy copped on the shock drop!!! MERRY XMAS BÆ!!
Space Jam in my top 5 of all time. The lows growing on me. The comfort isn't the best but I've been wearing the hell outta my 990V6's. That might be skewing things. Idk. There the best
I love 11s, dont get me wrong, and i copped these in 2014 when they retroed before, but $230 retail is pretty absurd man. Nike is sure capitalizing on the 11 holiday hype.
They needed the leather tounge like the Pantones. These would've been perfect if they went all out like they did for the Pantones. I still rock my Pantones and they still look great none of that mesh to bring down the quality is don't know why they didn't update that on these even if it isn't og
Jordan 11 was the first Jordan shoe i fell in LOVE with. Concord my favorite jordan of all time. For me ❤
These where my very 1st pair of jordans i grew up poor so I would only be able to barrow my friends and family members jordans when they said it was cool until one day my friend saw how much i loved his 11 columbia's and he gave them to me out the blue I have alot of emotions tied to this shoe thank you guys for your video it reminded of a very special moment in time in my life I shall never forget ❤💯 stay blessed and happy holidays 💯
11’s always remind me of those campout days. First time was for the 11/12 pack and every year after that.
I Remember Getting These Back In 96 The Same Day The Fugees Dropped And I Remember Playing Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 February 1996
MK3 🔥
96' is a top 3 year of all time!
Allstar
You had a great childhood 💪🏽
Yes I too had these in 96. Been showing my kids pictures of me wearing them back in 96.
They just shock dropped! Was able to score a pair, super excited for em! Have a great Thanksgiving everyone!
they will sit, over a million pairs and no one wants them lol. enjoy the overpayment they will be on sale soon enough
@daveA-z1fwhy so mad?
@daveA-z1f So that was a lie LOL

Nostalgia, that is the word you are looking for big dog😅
These were my first pair of Jordans in 1996, and I have to get them again.
You will get a pair. I definitely need a pair too
These were my first pair I’m 2014 😊
Shock drop at 5pm on SNKRS today 👀
Facts me too literally my first pair that I ever had in 96
I never owned this color way missed the ogs retros but I definitely coping today's 11s
Just got these on the shock drop!!! I’m so happy! 🔥✌🏼
Truly a great time to be a real sneakerhead, i was even able to hit on the j4 fears today on the snkrs app which normally would never happen a few months ago 😅
I hit too. 👍

Appreciate you guys.
Another great review.
Happy this is my first real 11 purchase in building my rotation, I always liked shoes but I just started building my collection, currently got
Craft olive & UNC 4’s
Along with these absolute heaters
Rate my rotation?
11s hit differently.
I was thinking about skipping these, due to personal financial goals, but damn, these are worth the sacrifice.
Thanks for the review
These aint worth messing with financial goals😂
I feel your pain. I passed on the 4’s for these.
They below retail now on some sites
@hectorfigueroa2294 they haven't even released yet
Financial problem goals huh more like we are always going to get what we love I’m broke as fuck but I burned $250

@ I don’t think my wife would appreciate that but good looking out tho 🤣
Great video please do a video on the blueberry 12s foam!
I’m 40, so yeah. I was waiting on this retro for my own reasons 💪🏾
I’m tryna decide between these 11’s or the black toe 14’s.😩
Damn bruh you got these uploaded before the black cement 3?!
Facts lol
Black cement 3s are ass lol
You must be 10 , nothing better a OG 11 high

That’s what I’m saying man companies would sell so much more if they did stuff big and tall like Carhartt and Ralph
You shouldn’t be that big anyway
@@miked.336damn
This is the perfect color way and a classic you can’t go wrong with great review Fellas
Even though I'm 38 y/o...I'd still grab these...
On another note, it's amazing to see foamie still going 👊
I’m 38 too my guy… just scheduled my business taxes appointment with H&R Block 😂 Let’s get the shoes!

@@russellmuscleatl I'd grab these... They're worth it. Personally think I'm going to go for the black cement 3s.
jordan 11 is the best shoe ever made. no question about it. glad i got my hands on these early.
Got my shock drop ❤
Love these!! Not as much as the Breds or concords. But still worth getting
These remind me of One of my boys who passed. He had this shoe and I ALWAYS wanted a pair, we were both obsessed with this shoe. Do they fit my style currently? Not so much, but of course I’m gonna grab a pair still!
What's the difference between these and the 2014 pair ? Is it higher patent leather ?

These are fire - one of my fav colorways of all time - hit on the shock drop today - pumped AF to get them on feet.
I still have my am pair from the last release. Actually just wore them Monday. This was a brick last time because it was just a hard pair to wear still is. This is a drop like last holiday 11s everyone wants them before or early but once they drop it’s not a needle mover
Cool grey 11s blew my mind first time I saw them. Wore the outlet version like it was the real deal in middle school🔥
We need those plastic shoe trees back and the drawer box for the Xmas 🎄 release… makes it feel even more special and it necessary with the $230 price tag..
Yo you guys are so right something about the 11s in December time is a thing to look out for every December must have
Are these really TTS? The last 11 i got were the cool gray and i had to go up half size and they were STILL too tight
Where’s the black cement 3 or olive 9 video?
All over TH-cam
They not fire compared to this!
What do you use to make your audio sound good? I have the same rode microphone ntb usb+ but I can’t get it to sound right
Bro do a review on your Cubans 👀 I recently bought one 9mm 26 inches. What Size is Your Bracelet?
I still got my pair from the last release. But cause they felt like boots, I’ve only worn them 2/3 xs. Shape looks better on these so will get them
I feel torn about this newer iteration with the higher cut patent, they just look fugazi with it. That said, I’ve gotten past it for the Concords and Breds and copped. So, guess it doesn’t matter but always feel I have to get it off my chest lol

I scored my size and my husband on the shock drop yesterday!
I remember I had these in 1996 and they got scuffed after like 5 wears…I panicked and sold them to my boy for like $20!! lol !! Finally I get another shot at them
Is the shirt still available? Website says "page not found"
These look good with light blue jeans and most joggers. Definitely copping even though i dont rock with 11s much.
What is the shoe at @3:25 trt
Those Columbia 11s are nice. Good review. Thanks
I completely agree with you guys on everything here. 11’s in an OG colorway are still some of my favorites, even though I end up wearing 1’s, 3’s & 4’s a lot more. I still wear my Concord’s & Space Jam’s from 2000 (after a full re-glue on each), and I will NEVER get rid of them.
How did you get it re glued? My Bred 11s need that
@CoachKev0731 Probably found a matching retro and swapped both the midsole and rubber outsole.

Had to buy them too, my favorite ones. Had them back in the day when i was a kid
These were about 7 years after I got into Jordan’s but totally agree about the feeling they give it just can’t be put into words
just really wish there was a way to keep the bottoms blue turned me off from 11s as i seen more and more of my 11s turning
Just hit on shock drop , took a L in my size 13 but was able to get a 12 surprisingly
Jordan 11s is the shoe that really got me started into falling in love with sneakers and as a sneakerhead I’m a fan of the 3s, 4s, 11s , and 12s but my all time favorite are the 11s and with all that being said I’m definitely getting a pair of these 👍🏼🔥
IVE BEEN WAITING ON THIS RELEASE SINCE THE BEGINNING IF THE YEAR..... I HOPE I CAN GET A PAIR!!!!
This is a nostalgic drop for me cause these were the holiday drop when I first got into the game but never copped which will change next month 9.1/10 🥶
This is a great shoe to wear one time and yellow immediately. 😂
Yup exactly, great shoe but so ugly after outsole turns yellow. They should have made the blue sole just like the unc adapt Jordan 11 so it stays blue no matter what.
Not true I just sold my 2014 pair and yellowing wasn't that bad at all and it depends on how and where u store them
😂😂😂😂😂
Wear these at night 😂 no yellowing 😂
Exactly why I pass. 😂 they look beautiful but age ugly 🤷🏻♂️
Will you do the olive 9s?
Jordan 11s is like the best part of the song
I have white bumps on the sides of my Jordan 11s is it a defect?
No they always have those on the midsole. Especially the concords and space jams.
pretty annoying and looks really tacky thanks
What’s the sizing for wide feet?
These feelings you speak of is what I have for 3’s and 4’s
Also, why don’t you do a top 10 retros of the year too?
Just secured my pair on the shock drop this evening. Had to see the review from the shoe goat himself.
I copped them today and I'm so happy I've wanted these since 96 but sad now my 11 collection is complete and I'm not sure when I'm gonna buy another pair 🥺
Do you think these will go up in Price after sold out
Nope
Review black cement 3s and 9 olives please!!!!
i aint gon front. I got these, the bc3s, and bm5s reps for $400. All top notch no flaw and dead on. saving money and not mad about it lol.
Young Buckets, Esq. at first speechless, then delivering the spice
I am a sneaker head and the 11s are in my top 3 as I love the Bred, cool grey, and especially Concords but I just do not love these. It’s more of the colorway maybe but I don’t know… That’s just my opinion
I’m glad that I was able to cop a pair I wasn’t able to get a pair when they came out in ‘14
My first Jordan that got me into sneakers was...........the 2014 J14 Black Toe..boy. those some how touched my brain in a way I didn't know was there!! My girl got these in 2014 and guess what your boy copped on the shock drop!!! MERRY XMAS BÆ!!
I read an article that said the name had to change from "Columbia Blue" because Columbia University in NYC trademarked the name of the color. weird.
How can you keep them from yellowing? Mine always yellow
Buy bottom protectors but if happens with age
Anyone know what beat they use for this video? Siiiiiick!
must cop, i sold my cool grey pair last year because I knew these were coming out. I like these more. 2nd to the breds
Will there be a restock on the mike Tyson tee?
I have the 2014 pair I need another pair must cop might double up
11’s are that shoe and will always be that shoe my favorite of all Retro’s🔥🔥🔥
Where you get the fitted ?
Space Jam in my top 5 of all time. The lows growing on me. The comfort isn't the best but I've been wearing the hell outta my 990V6's. That might be skewing things. Idk. There the best
I love 11s, dont get me wrong, and i copped these in 2014 when they retroed before, but $230 retail is pretty absurd man. Nike is sure capitalizing on the 11 holiday hype.
I made sure to catch every release of these 🔥
Yo Foamer can you review those chains and bracelets 🔥 Can never go wrong with a some Cuban links
These are fire I might have to double up on these
This shoe is a must have for my collection. FACTS!!!!!!
10/10 for sure. Classics! Must have. Evoke that feeling. I’ve camped for 11s more than any other sneaker
They needed the leather tounge like the Pantones. These would've been perfect if they went all out like they did for the Pantones. I still rock my Pantones and they still look great none of that mesh to bring down the quality is don't know why they didn't update that on these even if it isn't og
Fav 11s by far and ive had em all at some point
The 11's felt like a shoe from the future. I dont think we've had a shoe before then or since then that really captured people's attention like that.
Beautiful 👟 AJ 11 undefeated. Sadly my collection of sneakers were stolen recently when I moved to my new place. 30 + pairs.
Hit the drop shock today 💪🏽
Should have reviewed the low game royal coming soon
Yes... i agree with you guys, they a 10 out of 10. By the way... where's the Black Cement 3's video?
🔥 just grabbed these
