Air Jordan 11 Bred
The Air Jordan 11 Bred is a basketball sneaker designed by Tinker Hatfield and originally released by Nike in 1996. It features a glossy black patent leather upper contrasted with varsity red accents and a white midsole. This "Bred" colorway—short for black and red—became legendary after Michael Jordan wore it during the 1995-96 NBA season, highlighted by the Chicago Bulls’ record-setting 72-win run and championship victory. Its defining feature is the patent leather upper, which was revolutionary for basketball shoes by combining a formal, polished look with high-performance functionality. Fans return to the Bred for its direct link to Jordan’s peak moments and its role in reshaping sneaker aesthetics, making it a staple in collections focused on basketball history and style innovation.
