After much feedback received from our Sneaker Rant column about Why not the Concords? (Air Jordan 11 / 12 Package), many readers raised the concern about Jordan Brand’s color-way selection. We all know that on December 20, 2008, the Air Jordan 11 (XI) / Air Jordan 12 (XII) Countdown Package will contain the Air Jordan 11 - Black / Red (Bred). In a head-to-head showdown, our polls showed the Concord color-way barely beating the Breds (Black / Red). But what about the Air Jordan 11 - Space Jams?
Our latest Clash of the Kicks involves the following contestants that you wish were included in the Countdown Package:
1. Air Jordan 11 - Concords - The Air Jordan 11 - Concords were first released in November, 1995, and retailed for $125. They are dubbed the Concords, after the official colorway. They feature a white upper with black patent leather around the base, which was the first time patent leather had been used on a basketball shoe. They also feature a clear outsole, which is adored by many, but made many Air Jordan fanatics disappointed at the fact that they turn yellow after a while. Other specs of the shoe include a carbon fiber spring plate, ballistic nylon uppers, a Huarache inner sleeve, quick lace system, carbon fiber sheath and air sole.
2. - Air Jordan 11 - Space Jams - The Air Jordan 11 (XI) Retro - Space Jams (Black / Varsity Royal - White) may be the most adored of the Air Jordan 11 (XI). They are dubbed the Space Jams because they were worn by MJ in the 1996 movie. They feature a black upper, which includes black patent leather, along with a varsity royal Jumpman logo. The white midsole, which does stand out and draw attention to the shoe, sits on a clear outsole, which looks yellow here because they tend to turn that way with use and even by simply sitting there, as the oxygen in the air will do that to them. The Air Jordan 11 (XI) draws inspiration from a tuxedo design, and it is quite evident with the patent leather, and many of the colorways.

Ouch… I feel bad for the Concords… Even though I love the color-way, I have a feeling they will get butchered against the Space Jams… Who did you vote for?
I have the Concords but would love the Space Jams. I voted Space Jams just cause they are so cool,
SPACE JAMS!!!

I chose Space Jams cause they are the only mid XI I have not owned. I really wish they would have dropped in the pack with the white/red XII’s.

da SPACE JAMS!!! no contest man
I know the space jams are the most loved 11s but i would give it to the concords by a little bit
I was honestly right in the middle of the fence on this. I like the whole space jam feel, but the other pair stands out more with the white canvas. The purple looks oh so good on the space jams though. I would just have to buy both or none.
IT ALL ABOUT THE SPACE JAM! # 1 FASHO. FOR THE XMAS! COPY FOR 2 PAIRS FOR ME.
