For all fervor that sneakerheads show online when they defend OG Jordans because Michael actually wore them, they sure do have a funny way of paying homage by giving it a nickname when no nickname was necessary.When historians look back on the moment when the air jordans 11 world of video games and sneakerheads came together, they will look at NBA 2K13 as the tipping point when the lines blurred. With the game's new Shoe Creator mode that ties into NIKEiD (for select models only so don't get your hopes up that you will be able to customize an Air Jordan XI and get it air jordans 1 retro high og made), there will be plenty of fans that will take their devotion to the 2K series to the next level, customizing up to 45 layers within the shoe and clicking "send" to confirm their purchase while in the game.
