\u201cGentlemen, start your engines!\u201d The famous NASCAR command echoed across the roaring expanse of the Las Vegas Motor Speedway on Sunday, October 12, like a war cry at the start of this year\u2019s South Point 400. The atmosphere, already searing under the piercing Nevada sun, with the desert heat radiating off the asphalt, ignited into a frenzy, setting the stage for a high-octane event. Among the 38 teams on the starting grid, Michael Jordan\u2019s high-profile NASCAR team 23XI Racing<\/a> was not only hoping to take the checkered flag, but also wow fans with the unveiling of a new Jordan 11.<\/p>\n COMPLEX SHOP:<\/b> Shop the brands you love, anytime and anywhere.

Obsess.<\/a><\/p>\n The AJXI \u201cMojave\u201d is part of a larger Jordan Brand<\/a> series celebrating Houston, Atlanta and Vegas with hyperlocal colorways designed in collaboration with neighborhood and city-specific partners. The eye-catching purple color scheme was directly inspired by the sunsets and desert hues of the City of Sin, making its exclusive Vegas debut on the feet of 23XI Racing champion Tyler Reddick<\/a> and local influencer YPK.RAYE<\/a> The beloved AJXI silhouette is also the inspiration behind the latest wrap on Reddick\u2019s 2025 NASCAR Cup Series Toyota Camry. The car, detailed in a bold purple, pink and black design, looked exceptionally sleek and distinctive, making #45 THE AJXI \u2018MOJAVE\u2019 MAKES ITS EXCLUSIVE DEBUT<\/strong><\/p>\n It\u2019s one thing looking at pictures of the AJXI \u201cMojave,\u201d but seeing the exclusive kicks live in the flesh is a whole other experience. Designed in collaboration with neighborhood partners in Las Vegas, the purple colorway was inspired by the city\u2019s desert landscape. On race day, only two pairs were on display at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway, and one of those was on the feet of 23XI Racing driver Tyler Reddick. \u201cI love the colorway,\u201d the two-time NASCAR Xfinity Series champion told Complex. \u201cSince being a part of Jordan Brand, I think it\u2019s the first time I\u2019ve been given a true 11; not a low. So I was really excited about getting them this weekend.\u201d<\/p>\n TYLER REDDICK\u2019S RACE CAR GETS A FACELIFT<\/strong><\/p>\n Not only did Reddick\u2019s shoes get an upgrade, but his 2025 NASCAR Cup Series Toyota Camry also unveiled a brand new wrap inspired by the AJXI \u201cMojave.\u201d The #45 car zipped around the track sporting an eye-catching blend of pinks, purples, blues and blacks with a beautiful candy-floss type gloss finish, and its iconic white Jumpman logos left no doubt which team it belonged to. Reddick himself had a fresh reaction to the design. \u201cI actually didn\u2019t get to see the car at Airspeed [23XI Racing HQ] this week,\u201d he explained. \u201cThe first time I saw it was yesterday when I got to Vegas.\u201d Adding that he\u2019s always had a \u201cfondness for purple race cars,\u201d he noted the \u201cMojave\u201d wrap \u201clooks really good in the sun.\u201d<\/p>\nJordan “J Billz” Billings <\/p>\n
