Students Surprise Teacher With Air Jordan 11s He Always Wanted

A beloved teacher was left absolutely stunned when his students surprised him with a rare pair of sneakers he’d always wanted when he was a teenager but could never afford. Kyle Holbrook, 37, a teacher at Conner High School in Kentucky was a huge fan of Michael Jordan growing up, and in school he always wanted a pair of Air Jordan 11 Retro Space Jams. However, money was tight, and Kyle and his family were never able to buy a pair of the shoes, which prominently featured during Jordan’s ’96 Championship season and movie Space Jam. Fast forward a quarter of a century, and Kyle - or Mr. Holbrook - was starting class with the usual ‘Question Of The Day’, which the history teacher uses to get things started. A group of pupils asked Mr. Holbrook what his favorite pair of Jordans were, which led him to discuss how he had always wanted Air Jordan 11s but could never afford them. On hearing this, student Griffin Morris, 17, and around 15 of his friends decided they would carry out some research online and purchase a pair if they had any luck. With traditional sneaker websites charging more than $400 for a pair of Jordan 11s, the group then turned to eBay, where they found an unworn pair for $375 and jumped at the opportunity. On May 6, ahead of a history exam, Mr. Holbrook was hosting a breakfast for students in his classroom, when the group decided to present him with a card and a box.
