2016 vs 2009 Air Jordan 11 Space Jam Comparison

About | Information | History | Online | Facts | Discovery

1. 2016 are much better looking than 09's. That white looks terrible.
2. had both 09 were alright but the 16 is wayyyyy nicer
3. The 09's can't mess with the 2016 pair the 2016 looks like the og's I remember when I had the 11's in the 90's they just look better
4. 2016 huge down grade in my opinion, the high leather, purple over the royal blue hell naw, the white outline kills it also, also notice how the jump man seems to pop more on the 2009. jordan never used 45 in space jam. easy pass but, hype beast will love the 2016's
5. I got the 2016 release from Nike on the day of the release. Once I got them I really dislike the high patent leather. I have the bred 11s, the lower leather when it creases it doesn't look bad. Once the high patent leather creases on the 16 pair it'll look really bad because it'll be long. I'm going to sell them..
6. that high leather would be even better on the breds
7. It would've also been PERFECT if they combined the elements from both shoes 2009: 23 on the back heel (but stitched instead of printed, and black outlining on the patent leather with no peaks 2016: High patent leather, blue tinted outsole, and Nike air branding on the insole I guess that equals the 2000 space jam 11s lol
8. I just wish the 23 was on the 2016s and they would truly be the space jams
9. Honestly both are dope, but personally I would go with the '09s just because I like more of a sleeker look. Whereas the '16s just seem boxier. I'd pay a little more for the '09s for the minimal look on the patent.
10. 45 on the the back throws me off, if not coz of that i would choose 016 hands down, i dont mind the patent leather i prefer it og look
11. I like the 2009 with less patent leather up the sides
12. I wonder if the 09 pair dropped in price ??? I'm interested in buying an og pair DS. I'm going to check ebay out right now.
13. 09's are better for me. I don't like that high patent leather. I bought them because this is my second Jordan shoe with some actual blue and white color contrast. The high patent leather is not attractive compared to the 09 regardless of how true to the original release may be. But as you said SF, its nothing too off to complain. Or maybe its the fact that I'm not too into 11's and the fact that I'm used to seeing the low patent leather for so long.
14. i have both and in my opinion i like 16 better just because the changed the patent leather and the blue tint
15. O9s are nice but the soles always throw me off I personally love the 16 s with the concord and purple soles. And I never got a chance to own a pair of 00s so it's nice to get a retro for them
16. Why did they do a higher cut? That's not necessarily true to OG form.
17. Both have their great features and positives. Don't really see negatives unless referring to the '23' and '45' I guess preference. I managed to get the 2016 pair and would have given up if I had failed cuz when all those unauthorized and grey market pair of space jams with icy soles came out I knew once they yellowed they would be quite difficult to tell apart. Anyway getting off subject great vid.
18. Ridiculous. Reading the comments is torture. 09s have better quality? 09s and 00s are similar quality? Wtf?!? Dummies. The 2016 are as close to the OG as you're gonna get. The concord jumpman, the higher THICKER patent leather cut. He wore "45" when he came back, the jams he wore had "45" on the heel. I swear these kids know nothing and just make shit up.
19. Thanks for the support on Instagram 🙏
20. Great review.. I am thinking 2016 looks better than 2009..
