To the surprise of many, Nike.com has updated its Jordan Brand release date, clearing up rumors regarding the official colorway of the Air Jordan 11/12 Countdown Package. Usually such an information wouldn’t be made public until about two months before the release date, but no one is complaining with Nike’s move.

The Air Jordan 11 colorway will be the black/true red-white or Black Red colorway and the Air Jordan 12 the black/varsity red-cement grey. During the past few months, speculation was going around that the XI will be the Space Jams and the XII the Taxis.

The bred XI, although not as coveted as the Space Jam, is not something people will complain about. The hype for this package will continue to be phenomenal, so save some money now and prepare to camp.

The pack will be released on December 26, the day after Christmas, for a retail price of $310. The pictures used of the Jordan XI will not be the completely the same as the shoes releasing with the package because these are only pictures of the previous retros.

Last year, several rumors spread through the web that the Black Cement Air Jordan 3 will release along with the other Jordan 3 releases. Yet as 2007 passed, the Black Cements were nowhere to be found and people became greatly disappointed.

However, as Jordan Brand announced the release of the Jordan Countdown Packages, the hopes of sneaker fans around the world that these holy grails will release have rekindled. Hailed as the best colorway of one of the best Jordan models, these classic Jordans will release as part of the Air Jordan 20/3 Countdown Package.

Although these retroes will feature a grey Jumpman logo instead of the “Nike Air” on the heel, the shoes seem to be of high quality. To the delight of Jordan-heads, nothing else about the shoes seems to have been altered from the last retro. The hype surrounding the October release will surely be phenomenal despite the $310 price tag.

Air Jordan IV Black Cement

Releasing as part of the Air Jordan IV/XIX Countdown Package, the Air Jordan IV Black Cement is a shoe that Jordan-heads have been praying to be retroed. Nike is scheduled to release the much anticipated classic pair on July 19 for $310 together with the Black/Chrome-Varsity Red Jordan 19.This is the first time the Black Cements are releasing since 1999.

Although a lot of fans will be ecstatic, some will definitely frown upon the Jumpman logo, which replaces the classic “Nike Air” on the back of the shoes. Those who have already gotten a pair also complain that the overall shape of the shoes as well as the materials used differ great from the Original Black Cement IVs.

Nevertheless, the retro IVs come relatively close to the OGs in terms of colorway. Both feature Black Nubuck uppers and Cement Grey-Fire Red midsoles.
