Air Jordan 2011 Silver Anniversary Nike iD

Posted on September 12, 2011 by Jumpmankicks

Ever wish Jordan Brand included the Air Jordan 2011s as part of the Silver Anniversary Pack? Now that they are part of the Nike iD program, you can make your own version. The pair below was created with Nike iD, and has a completely white patent leather upper, connected to an icy clear sole. Ok, so it’s not a true Silver Anniversary release, but more than likely, they would have looked a lot like this pair. If you’d like to make your own version or maybe another custom Air Jordan 2011 colorway, you can create them at Nike iD for $205. Here’s a direct link to the site.

Air Jordan XII Retro Obsidian/White and Playoffs

Posted on September 12, 2011 by Jumpmankicks

Here’s some info on two pairs that I’m sure a lot of you (including myself) have been hoping and praying for. After 15 years, 2012 will mark the return of the Obsidian/ White-French Blue-University Blue Air Jordan XIIs, and also the Black/White-Metallic Silver XIIs, aka the “Playoffs”. Sure, the Obsidians received a retro release in low top from back in ’04, but that doesn’t count. This time, it’s the real deal. The Obsidians were actually my first pair of Air Jordans, so they have certain sentimental value to me. Here’s a look at samples of both the Obsidians and Playoffs. They are scheduled for release sometime in June 2012, so mark your calendars. As for me: Two pairs minimum.

Air Jordan XII (12) Retro
Color: Obsidian/White-French Blue-University Blue
Style: 130690-410
Release: 06/??/2012

Posted on September 12, 2011 by Jumpmankicks

What’s hotter than Nike Air Yeezys? Glow the Dark Yeezys, of course. That’s exactly was seen on the feet of Nike designer Tiffany Beers at the unveiling of the Nike Mag 2011 premier, held at Nike Sportswear at the Montalban in Hollywood, CA (video below). While these were rumored to release for quite some time, the never made it to the public. As you can see, almost the entire upper has received glow in the dark material, with the exception of the laces and inner lining. Hopefully this idea will make it to the Nike Air Yeezy 2.
