Kix and the City said the shoe, aka Columbia, is "...[o]ne of the most anticipated sneaker releases of the year. It will be on your Top 5 for 2014, said The Boombox, adding: "The name of the shoe may be a bit off-putting since it's actually the return of the Air Jordan 11 'Columbia,' but what's in a name anyway?"
