Renowned Filipino sneaker and toy collector DJ Big Boy Cheng previewed an unreleased Air Jordan 11 Player Exclusive (PE) colorway, slated in Michigan State University's (MSU) green-and-white hues, hence its nickname.
What looks like a rendition of the Air Jordan 11 Retro from 2018, the pair features similar color blocking to the “Concord” through its all-white ballistic nylon and leather upper with a Spartan-like green coat on its signature patent leather mudguard, the Jumpman logo, and the “45” engraved on the heel instead of the traditional “23.”
While witnessing an MSU-inspired Jordan PE is peculiar, it isn’t impossible. The Swoosh and the public institution signed a 10-year, $34M sponsorship agreement that comes to fruition in 2026, limiting their access to exclusive Air Jordan silhouettes—unlike their neighboring rival Wolverines (that are an official Jordan Brand university). If the pair is indeed an MSU Air Jordan PE, then it’s probably one of few that are likely to surface.
Cheng’s acquisition appears to be the sole evidence of its existence, with no official images or details disclosed from Nike, nor does the pair has any official ties to MSU, as of writing.
