The black Comme des Garçons x Nike Air Jordan 11 leans even further into restraint, using darkness as its design language. Shown on the Paris Fashion Week FW26 runway. Here, branding doesn’t interrupt the form, it blends into it. Comme des Garçons avoids contrast placement, instead embedding its identity into the shoe in a way that rewards close inspection.
Comme des Garçons branding is once again handled with precision. The heel features understated text rather than iconography, rendered in a tone that sits close to the upper rather than popping against it. It’s visible, but never dominant. The insole carries co-branding as well, reinforcing the collaboration.
Material choice does a lot of the storytelling. Matte leather and dense mesh absorb light, allowing the branding to feel almost etched into the shoe rather than printed on it. Without patent leather’s shine, the AJ11 takes on a more architectural presence, and the Comme des Garçons markings feel like part of that structure. The sole unit remains recognisably Jordan.
