It's exciting news for sneaker enthusiasts that the Air Jordan 11 "DMP", Defining Moments Pack or better known as Air Jordan 11 "Gratitude", is making a comeback in the Holiday 2023 season, but we got a early release stock just for you! This particular release has a rich history and a few updates compared to the original. Here's a breakdown of the key points:
- Return of the Air Jordan 11 "DMP": After 17 years since its last release in 2006, the Air Jordan 11 "DMP" is set to return as Air Jordan 11 "Gratitude".
- Defining Moments Pack (DMP): The Air Jordan 11 "DMP" was originally part of the "Defining Moments Pack" along with the Air Jordan 6. This pack was highly sought after by sneaker collectors.
- Colorway and Materials: Unlike the black-dominant colorway of the Air Jordan 6 in the DMP pack, the Air Jordan 11 "Gratitude" features a white upper and a black patent mudguard, similar to the "Concord" colorway. However, the 2023 Retro version will swap out the original canvas upper for premium leather.
- Gold Branding: The 2023 Retro version will retain the gold branding from the original DMP release.
- Air Jordan 13 "Wheat": Alongside the Air Jordan 11 "DMP," the Air Jordan 13 "Wheat" is also expected to be part of Jordan Brand's end-of-year drop for 2023.
- Design Details: The Air Jordan 11 "DMP" is expected to stay true to its original design, featuring glossy patent leather with wavy trim, white mesh accents, linear lace eyelets, leather heel counters, and metallic gold Jumpman logos. The semi-translucent outsole pays homage to Michael Jordan's on-court legacy.
- Packaging: The original 2006 "DMP" pack came with special-edition boxing and custom hangtags. It's unclear whether the 2023 Retro version will be packaged in a similar format.
Sneakerheads and fans of the Air Jordan line will likely be eagerly awaiting the release of the Air Jordan 11 "DMP" to complete their collections or simply to rock a classic silhouette with a fresh twist.
