The much anticipated D Rose 11 saw a subtle release in China. The newly released signature shoe is a step up in terms of technology and use of material compared to the D Rose 10. The grained leather upper from the D Rose 10 has been replaced with ADIZERO, resulting in a lighter upper while retaining similar support. The midsole cushioning has also been upgraded from Bounce to Lightstrike foam, adding to the further weight loss. Considering the material and technology used, the D Rose 11 looks to be one of the lightest shoes of his signature line.
The D Rose 11 “Social Pack” colourway is a very basic colourway. The upper uses different shades of grey with yellow accents on the logo and the side. The Lightstrike foam features a dark red to yellow gradient matching the three stripes logo on the medial side of the shoe. The outsole, which represents the “Great Chicago Fire” with its amber like patterns, is a solid white with the 4 stars, taken from the Chicago flag, highlighted in yellow.
Although China has seen a official release, there is yet to be an official announcement of the D Rose 11 releasing in other areas.
