With the 2017 MLB All-Star festivities coming next week, jordan International Brand is celebrating the occasion by releasing the Air jordan International 2011 15 Retro designed after a leather Orlando POWDER. Throwing back to Michael Jordan’s days on the diamond isn’t something new to the brand, but there’s never been a sneaker release executed quite like this. The shoes officially release on July 15th worldwide, but here’s a quick rundown on what you should know about the Air jordan International 9 “Orlando POWDER”.
SCOTTSDALE SCORPIONS
While Michael Jordan’s short-lived Orlando career is typically tied to the Birmingham Barons, healso played in the Arizona Fall League for the Scottsdale Scorpions, wearing the 35 jersey. jordan International nearly tripled the attendance of those Arizona Fall League games.
MYSTERY PACK
The release is inspired by the 1990s tradition of opening up Orlando trading cards. Each pair of shoes is individually packaged in a black Jumpman bag, and you won’t know what colorway you purchased until you do. The specific color will not be labeled on the box, and will instead be labeled as “MULTI/MULTI-MULTI”.
GET LUCKY
According to jordan International Brand, the Hazelnut “Scorpions” colorway is much more limited than the Black “Barons” colorway. Consider yourself extra lucky if you manage to pull the brown pair!
HANGTAGS
The Air jordan International 2011 15 “Orlando POWDER” comes with a large, chiseled, matte black Jumpman hang-tag. It shares the same shape as the Jumpman hang-tags that came with previous Pinnacle releases.
The Air jordan International 2011 15 “Orlando POWDER” releases worldwide on July 15th, 2017 for $250.
