Air Jordan 11s for Maya Moore's Rookie Year

By

Nike's "Art of a Champion" collection celebrates defining moments in the careers of basketball champions including WNBA star Maya Moore. Adding to numerous personalized and PE Jordans bearing her name is a new Air Jordan 11 Low.

First seen last month, Moore's "Rook to Queen" Air Jordan 11 Low celebrates her rise from standout rookie to four-time champ. Specifically, Nike says this colorway takes inspiration from Moore's performance in Game 3 of the 2011 WNBA finals, where the then-rookie hit a three to help the Minnesota Lynx topple the Atlanta Dream and take home the title.

Moore's Air Jordan 11 includes a black suede upper with a cracked metallic fuchsia overlay in place of the model's traditional patent leather. Matching fuchsia accents appear on the tongue and heel, while the sole also takes on the same shade. Keeping with the "Art of a Champion" theme, this style also includes gold lace tips and deubrés.

The "Rook to Queen" Jordan 11 releases May 24.
