Luxe Design Meets Retro Roots
The palette of the new Pearl colorway comprises pearly grey, white and metallic silver. The first thing you'll notice about this sneaker is the standout leather upper, which instantly puts you in an edgy, fashion-forward mindset when styling this release. Metallic overlays complement the icy feel, while the plush outsole delivers both comfort and a photo-ready finish.
If you're ready to retire your Air Force 1s, the AJ11 Pearl's fresh takes on white-on-white could bring your sneaker game to a whole new level. With its premium leather and touch of silver, this design is perfect for anyone looking for a luxe way to take any casual fit from thrown together to cool and coordinated.
To style these shoes, balance the edgy materials with an outfit that needs a casual vibe:
- Effortless minimalism: You can't go wrong with a monochromatic moment — and when you pair these Nike shoes with a matching tracksuit, you instantly upgrade your look. With a tracksuit in a neutral color like grey, white or beige, your Pearls add a bit of unexpected contrast. A structured leather bag calls back to the details on your kicks and makes for a casually cool look ideal for the airport, class or anywhere you want to flex while keeping it comfy.
- Elegance made casual: Similar to the Air Jordan 11 Gamma Blue design, this Jordan 11 women’s release has an athletic silhouette that's fun to mix with tailored or more elevated pieces. Pair the Pearl with pieces that call back to the subtle details that make this drop a winner. For example, a silver midi skirt mimics the elegance of the Jumpman embroidery, showing that you know sneakers and style in a more dressy setting without feeling out of place.
- Top-level athleisure: The athleisure trend is huge right now — and when you're looking for premium comfort and sporty spark, the Pearl colorway delivers with its snug shape and icy outsoles. Balance the cushioned midsole and snug shape with wide-leg athletic or yoga pants and play up the Air Jordan 11 retro vibes, or choose a knit set in a pastel shade for a more feminine take on this court-ready trend.
Whether you need a little punch with an otherwise comfort-focused outfit or want to balance a look that feels too stuffy with flats or heels, the Pearl release is ready to deliver.
Meanwhile, the Grand Finale is a kids' exclusive release, which will take inspiration from the adult Grand Finale version in bold patterns. This variation showcases Nike's commitment to making style and fashion an accessible, generational habit, with vivid, bright designs that encourage kids to let their self-expression shine. Combined with a plush insole and supporting outer casing, this all-day-play favorite is bound to be a holiday must-have in late 2025.
