The Air Jordan 2010, the 25th version of basketball’s most successful shoe line ever. The designers of the shoe teamed up with Michael himself and came up with the concept of transparency. The transparent circle in the middle of the shoe is a transparent thermoplastic urethane window and was inspired by the way MJ sees through his opponents while only revealing the parts of his game he wanted to. And for the shoe to have a stylish entrance it will be worn by the Brand’s newest and probably most high-profile endorser in Dwyane Wade at All Star Weekend in Dallas.
At the moment there are people who are saying that the shoe is pretty ugly specially with that transparent circle in the middle of the shoe, and that they were expecting something much better with the design specially with Michael himself being a part of the design team. But people have done that before, criticizing Air Jordans on how they look, saying they won’t buy them specially with the price tag on Jordans but once they come out the market you could see long lines on every shoe store on the block, people wanting to get a pair even if they’re worth $190, wanting to be the first to wear the Jordans in their neighbourhood. It’s an Air Jordan, it’s an iconic shoe just like the Air Force 1. The shoe is coming out Feb. 13 at a retail of $170, and definitely I’m one of those wanting to get a pair of these.

Brand Jordan has released another interesting Jordan 16.5 colorway which features a Black base in patent leather with hints of Purple from the inside and Aquatone stitching. The tongue portrays some detailing using the stitches and Gold accent. The Jumpman logo appears on the heel in Gold while the sole comes clear with Blue and Black blending. [NiceKicks]

Never one to forget about the needs of the lady sneakerheads out there (of which there are a whole lot more than you might actually think), Nike has just released this new pair of Air Max 97’s for the females with asilver and pink colorway.Some may compare this one to somewhat of an OG colorway but with a bit of a twist.First off, the predominantly silver upper on these is quite shimmery compared to the silver that was featured on the OG’s was which admittedly a bit dull comparatively.Also, with the OG’s the accented color was of course not pink, but red.Either way, these are a really nice pair of sneakers for the ladies that closely enough resemble the classics to give them a bit of extra appeal.These ones are available for purchase in stores at the time of this writing, so what are you waiting for ladies?

Here we have another Nike model meant to honor Martin Luther King Jr. This time around it Kobe Bryants signature shoe, the Zoom Kobe V. Kobe and his teammates wore this shoe yesterday when they played against the Orlando Magic. Just like the MLK inspired Hyperize, this Zoom Kobe V comes in a a grey / black/ green / red colorway.

The shoe features a shiny grey base with green used on the outsole. Black is seen on the Nike Swoosh,  midsole, laces, heel, and the black mamba logo. Red is really not see on the shoe but can be spotted on the inner of the tongue. This pair is also meant to honor the African heritage. Its a really nice shoe, and im sure most of you are dying to get your hand on these. Not sure if these will release, but if anything comes up we will be the first to tell you. Check out more pics for a more detailed look.

WOW! That all i could say after i saw these for the first time. I mean just look at them, you just want to reach into the picture and grab them. This pair of Nike Dunks is inspired by the “Oceanic Airlines” on the hit TV show “Lost”. Im sure most of you watch Lost, which makes these Dunks even better if you love the show.

The shoe comes in a blue/teal/white/colorway. The entire upper is constructed from smooth suede in teal and blue. White can be seen on the Nike Swoosh, inner lining, tongue, and outsole. On the insole is a map print with elevation lines, which is where Oceanic Airlines comes from. The shoes come with two pairs of laces, red and white. Available now at select Nike retailers.

As most of you probably know yesterday, January 18, 2010, was Martin Luther King Jr day. To honor MLK Nike has came out with a number of Player Exclusives. One of them is this Nike Hyperize, which was worn by a couple of NBA players yesterday. The list includes Pau Gasol, Stephen Curry, and a couple more NBA players.

The MLK Nike Hyperize comes in a grey/black/green/red colorway. The colors are meant to honor the African heritage. Most of the shoe in done up in grey including the upper. Red is seen on the toe, while green is featured on the outsole. Black is placed on the Nike Swoosh, laces, and tongue. This is one of the best Nike Hyperizes we have seen, and Nike did a real good job by showing respect to one of the most iconic people ever.
