This December, Jordan Brand will be retroing the "Space Jam" Air Jordan 11, in honor of the 20th anniversary of Space Jam. The iconic black and blue Air Jordan 11s last released back in 2009.

However, unlike the previous 11s before it, the 2016 "Space Jam" colorway will feature the rare #45 on the heel in place of the familiar #23. What's more, the 2016 edition feature a higher, OG cut on the patent leather and "Nike Air" branding on the insole.

Truth is, whether these have a #45, a #23, or a #73.8 stamped on the heel it won't prevent any sneakerheads from flocking to retailers this December for their pair of Space Jams. 

These remastered kicks will carry a price tag of $220 when they drop on December 10th, which is earlier than originally expected.

Again, we don't think that steep price tag will deter any potential buyers.
