The introduction of Air Jordan 2011 certainly enjoyed quite a buzz, even 24 hours after the announcement was made.  With Chinese New Year just around the corner, Jordan Brand also created a version for Year of the Rabbit. In ways, the Air Jordan 2011 Year of the Rabbit is quite significant.  Born in 1963, Michael Jordan himself is a Rabbit according to Chinese Zodiac, maybe an explanation to his agility and speed on the court.  Comes in Grey/Red Gold colorways, a sign of good fortune and happiness, with a matching packaging inspired by ancient Chinese star charts, the Air Jordan 2011 Year of the Rabbit include all of the technical appointments mentioned at yesterday unveiling, which include:
