The Air Jordan 11 “Legend Blue,” also known as “Columbia,” is making a much-anticipated return this holiday season. Scheduled for release on December 14, 2024, this iconic sneaker will be available through Nike and select retailers, with full-family sizing ensuring that fans of all ages can celebrate together.
First introduced during the 1996 NBA All-Star Game, the “Columbia” Air Jordan 11 quickly became a standout. Its all-white patent leather and ballistic mesh design, accented by light blue and black details, matched perfectly with the All-Star Game uniform, pushing it to an iconic status among both sneaker enthusiasts and basketball fans. Following its debut, the shoe saw a re-release in 2001, further cementing its legacy in the sneaker world.
In 2014, the “Legend Blue” version of the Air Jordan 11 was brought back, generating considerable excitement. Despite this, the 2014 iteration did not exactly replicate the original 1996 model, leaving some purists longing for a closer match. With recurring rumors and speculation over the years, the impending 2024 release is building high expectations that this version may finally offer the authentic look fans have been eagerly awaiting.
