Air Jordan 11 Low IE Obsidian – Official Images, Release Date

While not nearly as popular as its usually patent leather-covered counterpart, the Air Jordan 11 Low IE does hold somewhat of a cult following. This upcoming Obsidian colorway, however, might just garner the sneaker a larger fan base.

As the name hints, this sneaker takes full advantage of Nike’s obsidian color, using it across the entire upper. Its construction consists of full grain leather, overlaid with nubuck suede along the breathable areas. Matching obsidian lining and laces have been applied. Color constrast is provided via crisp white midsole, followed by a translucent outsole.

Priced at $170, the Air Jordan XI Low IE Obsidian will release in stores on Saturday, July 29. Most major retailers will carry the sneaker, including Nike.com, Foot Locker, and Eastbay. In addition, if you’d prefer to have a pair in your hands a little early, all sizes can be found on eBay from a number of sellers. Click here to view the listings if you’d like to go that route.
