Brandon King

title image via zsneakerheadz With all of the notable releases in 2025, it is possible this Air Jordan 11 may fly under the radar.  At this juncture, there are no available images, but initial predictive speculation assigns an aesthetic of a black mesh upper overlaid with a black patent leather rand that features the correct higher cut.
