The designer of the Air Jordans 11 model is Tinker Hatfield. This Air Jordans 11 was released in 1995/96. While Jordan was playing baseball, Tinker Hatfield designed the Air Jordans 11 in hopes that MJ would eventually wear it if he would ever come back to NBA. And finally, Jordan returned for the first time and he led the Bulls to yet another NBA victory. Jordan also became the second man in history to win MVP awards of the regular season, All Star and the Finals in one season. Averaged 30.4 points per game, and 40 or more points in 9 games. What a return! Jordan wore the Air Jordans 11 model to bring the Bulls to claim the 1995-1996 NBA championship. The legacy of the Air Jordans 11 was transferred to the silver screen as Jordan wore a black/white/blue colorway of the Air Jordans 11 model in the 1996 Warner Bros -- "Space Jam". The Air Jordans 11 standed out with a fusion of performance and style. The condura nylon upper gave the Air Jordans 11 model lightweight durability. The most clear aspect of the shoe was its shiny patent leather mid and toebox. The leather gave the Air Jordans 11 what many described as a 'formal' look - many owners of the Air Jordans 11 took advantage of thereafter, pairing the Air Jordans 11 off the court with business suits in stead of dress shoes. Boyz II wore the Air Jordans 11 at one of their concerts.
