The Air Jordan 11 Low IE Gets a Light Orewood Brown Colorway

Jordan Brand launches a new tonal iteration of the Air Jordan 11 Low IE sneaker model with the new Light Orewood Brown colorway to join the roster. It has a soft brown color that is accented with hints of white, Natural Grey, and Cement Grey across the upper.

It is made with a plethora of materials in order to create a layered look that is informed by ventilated functions. It all rests on top of a white midsole and a slightly clear grey outsole foundation. The new colorway is set to launch later this year for the Fall season -- dropping officially on October 6th through Nike and other retailers for the price of $185 USD.
