Air Jordan XI 'Cool Grey' PackagingSneakerfiles was the first to bring you information on the possibility of the next installment of the Jordan XI Retro getting a special package much like the ‘Space Jam’ did last year.

Today we bring you confirmation that there is in fact a cool grey theme both inside and outside of the box. While half of you claim to not care about the box and the other half wants their $175 to get a little more than the shoe itself that once retailed at $125 back in ‘01… these new images should satisfy everyone. Personally, with a $50 mark up and lackluster quality compared to its initial 2001 release, my purchase either needs to come with a complimentary ‘camp-out breakfast’ or a really cool box… and looks like I’ll be going to Denny’s after these drop.

Enjoy the images after the jump and let us know what you think.

  1. I like the shoe and the packaging maybe they'll start releasing the XI's in boxes that match the color of the shoe. I liked em regardless of what the box looked like

  2. Honestly if these cam in the regular packaging I really wouldnt care because the end result is going to be the same. I will have these added to my collection of shoes. The only thing about these cool gray XI is the ice blue bottoms. I rather have the Jordans with the original bottoms…

  3. See told y'all! Just kidding. This is great though-an iconic shoe deserves iconic packaging. Can't wait to get mine-should have them in a week.

  4. When these first came out back when I was like in the 6th grade alot of people were getting killed over these, where I was at the time. Hopefully history does not repeat itself over these shoes. These are well the worth for someone who is really a Jordan head.

  5. ima kill srh713 fo these! lol j/k bro…but seriously again with the packaging people WHO CARES!!!!…now something to report on would be if the shoe was packaged with like a gold brick…then THAT would be sick lol

  6. these joints should be $150 max…I copped these back in '01 now they are charging fools extra by putting them in a "special" box. Fuck the box…

  7. Received mine today.I like them.A little different from the release a couple years back.I needed a fresh pair the soles on my other joints are yellow as fuck.
