What do you get when you cross one of the most adorable fairy-type characters from the Pokémon franchise with Michael Jordan’s eleventh signature silhouette? A unique and playful Air Jordan 11 “Togepi” sneaker, of course.
This incredible concept design is the brainchild of the talented custom sneaker artist Javornie Brathwaite, who has a knack for reimagining iconic sneakers as beloved Pokémon characters. This time, he’s given the Air Jordan 11 ‘Columbia’ a delightful Togepi makeover.

A Closer Look At The Design
Brathwaite’s Air Jordan 11 concept draws heavily on the colour palette of the beloved Pokémon character. The sneaker features a soft pastel yellow upper composed of smooth leather and a contrasting white patent leather mudguard that wraps around the lower half of the sneaker. These components are intended to mimic Togepi’s body and shell, respectively.
Of course, Brathwaite hasn’t forgotten the characteristic Togepi design elements, with the Fairy Pokémon’s iconic red and blue shapes showcased on the patent leather mudguard. The pair is finished with a white midsole and light blue outsole, indicating that the base for this design is indeed the Air Jordan 11 “Columbia”—a popular colourway that was last released in December 2024 to the joy of sneakerheads worldwide.
We can’t deny that with a few simple yet effective design choices, Brathwaite has successfully created a chic sneaker tribute to the adorable Togepi. But do you want to catch a pair for yourself?
