The Air Jordan 11 “Legend Blue,” also referred to as “Columbia,” is making a return on December 14, 2024. Including the previous Legend Blue release, this marks the third launch of the “Columbia” version, with the fourth expected for Christmas 2024. It will retail for $230 and will be offered in full family sizes.

The highly anticipated “Columbia” colorway is poised to make a comeback for Holiday 2024, bringing back the OG vibes. While the 2014 “Legend Blue” release didn’t fully capture the OG style, the 2024 version is anticipated to closely resemble the original Air Jordan 11, boasting a high-cut design. It will showcase the classic combination of White, Legend Blue, and Black.

Air Jordan 11 Columbia History

The Air Jordan 11 in the “Columbia” and “Legend Blue” colorways has seen three releases to date, with the fourth slated for 2024. Initially introduced in 1996, they earned the moniker “All-Star” due to Michael Jordan sporting them during the 1996 NBA All-Star game at the Alamodome in San Antonio, where he clinched the MVP title with an impressive performance of 20 points, 4 rebounds, and 1 assist.

The first retro of the “Columbia” Air Jordan 11 occurred in 2001, a mere five years later. The key distinction between the 1996 and 2001 iterations lies in the height of the patent leather, with the latter featuring a lower-cut patent leather without peaks.

In 2014, Jordan Brand reissued the “Columbia” Air Jordan 11, but under the name “Legend Blue.” Speculations suggest that Jordan Brand relinquished the trademark for “Columbia Blue,” prompting the name alteration.
