Emerging from the shadows, the Air Jordan 11 Retro GS “Inner Beast” fuses darkness with electric glow — its sleek black leather and crushed velvet paneling get charged by Barely Volt accents and a glow-in-the-dark outsole. A kids-exclusive drop that brings mood and mystery to the AJ11 legacy.

Design & Materials

The Air Jordan 11 Retro GS “Inner Beast” features a full black leather and velvet upper, offset by muted touches of Barely Volt on the tongue, Jumpman, and translucent outsole. Crushed velvet sidewalls add rich texture and contrast, while classic 11 elements — carbon fiber plate, high-cut ankle, and molded sole — tie it back to Jordan heritage. The mono palette lets the glow effects and subtle Volt detailing pop in low light — establishing a duality of stealth and surfacing energy.

Comfort & Performance

Built like any reliable AJ11, it comes with molded cushioning, sturdy midfoot support, and a rubber traction outsole pattern that holds grip. The materials balance premium feel (today) with durability (for wear), making it wearable for both display and active use.
