Michael Jordan’s Air Jordan XI OGs from back in the day were separated by the stitched look that shows up for the numbering on the back. Shown here is one of those pairs, an original Air Jordan XI “Columbia” that appears to have been made for Mike. And as you’ll remember, those were the sneakers he wore out to the NBA All-Star Game in 1996, so if these are indeed a game-worn pair then it’s possible that that was the game they were worn in.
