With its Rio release now in the past, Jordan Brand will pay tribute to none other the the “City of Angels”, Los Angeles, California. It features a deep navy leather upper with matching laces, complemented with Blue Lagoon lining. The usual “23” or “45” graphics has been replaced with “LA”, also embroidered in Blue Lagoon. A mostly white sole gives the design an ultra clean look, while navy stripes are placed on the outsole highlighting MJ’s accomplishments over his first ten years in the NBA.

The Air Jordan 10 Los Angeles City Pack will release tomorrow, May 15, priced at $190, available exclusively through Nike’s SNKRS app. This model is guaranteed to move quickly, but those of you looking to secure a pair can grab them now on eBay. Click here to go directly to the search results.

Rare Air: Air Jordan IX (9) Kobe Bryant Player Exclusives

Posted In: Air Jordan, Kobe, Nike

Prior to committing Kobe to an endorsement deal, Nike gave the Black Mamba somewhat of a trial run with its sneakers, which also included the Jordan Brand lineup. One those sneakers happened to be this Air Jordan IX player exclusive colorway. Wrapped in a beautiful purple patent leather contrasted with white leather and a matching outsole, gold graphics help to complete the Lakers theme. Kobe’s number “8” at the time was embroidered at the heel. Most likely only a handful of these were actually created. This sample was originally posted on eBay by seller phyuck_yo_kixx, selling for a whopping $55,100!

Air Jordan 1 Retro “Rivalry” Pack

Most of you sneakerheads are well aware of Michael Jordan’s six championship rings, however few realize the difficulties he encountered along the way to becoming a champion. Perhaps his greatest challenge was getting past the Detroit Pistons in the playoffs. The Pistons, then known as the “Bad Boys”, were known for hard fouls and dirty playing tactics, especially against the Bulls. Their defensive strategy centered around Jordan, sending double and triple teams to force a turnover, and even committing hard fouls to discourage any attempts at dunks or close-range shots. Thanks to emerging teammates like Scottie Pippen, MJ would eventually overcome Detroit’s “Jordan Rules” and sink the Pistons. His final challenge came in the 1991 NBA Finals, which put him face-to-face against his friend and greatest rival, Magic Johnson.  The Lakers beat the bulls in game 1, but fortunately, Jordan’s determination was too much for the Lakers, and the Bulls won the series 4-1, securing MJ’s first title and garnering his respect as both an individual and team player.

To remember MJ’s greatest adversaries, Jordan Brand has created the Air Jordan 1 “Rivalry Pack”. This pack includes two pairs of Air Jordan 1s. The first pair has received a Detroit Pistons theme, with a mostly blue upper, finished with white and red accents. The second pair takes inspiration from the L.A. Lakers, featuring a gold, purple, and white theme. There’s no information yet on a U.S. release, but you can currently get both pairs from the Japan-based shop Mita.
