Gratitude-Giving Sneakers

The LA Bike Life Crew Handed Out Pairs of the Air Jordan XI Retro

— December 21, 2023 — Fashion
As a gesture of appreciation to the devoted Los Angeles community, the LA Bike Life Crew took to the streets, distributing brand-new pairs of the Air Jordan XI Retro. This act of generosity is a heartfelt way of reciprocating the support the brand has received from its local fans. Beyond its clever marketing strategy, this initiative carries significant social impact, coinciding perfectly with the festive season. The shoes were personally handed out to individuals and locations that hold special significance to the crew, adding a personal touch to the community outreach.

The redesigned shoe takes cues from the famous DMP colorway, with gold Jumpman logos stylishly attached to the heel. To give it an extra touch of class, the shoe has a smooth satin lining around the collar and glossy patent leather on the mudguard.
