Air Max Nomo's

Woah Nomo, we expected the red and blue colorways but these caught us off guard. The Nike Air Max Nomo Tech Grey/Blue Spark uses a grey suede upper overphoto blue mesh. A white midsole and black outsole set the base with the upper garnering the majority of the attention. Similar to the Griffey Max 1 with a great base these blaze the trail as the shoes breakout new colorway.

Fifteen years ago, Hideo Nomo opened the floodgates as the first Japanese-born full-time Major League Baseball player.  Nomo’s appeal was well rounded, from his connections to the Pacific rim to a one-of-a-kind windup, so it’s no surprise Nike noticed this and signed him.  Here’s the Nike Air Max NM Nomo that was released the year after Hideo won the NL Rookie of the Year in 1995.          

If the sole looks familiar, that’s cos it’s the same one that also released under the Air Griffey Max 1 in ’96.  Two colorways will release during the Spring 2011 season, with Pro Blue and Varsity Red uppers both accented by black ‘teeth’ at the top and bottom.

The design of the Air Jordan XIII was inspired by MJ's "Black Cat" nickname, and this colorway may do the best job of getting that point across. Last seen in 1997, the "Playoff" Air Jordan XIII will finally make a return in retro form this year. While that news may disappoint some collectors, others will be happy to know that little to nothing has changed about the 2011 version. Tumbled black leather and tonal nubuck take care of the upper, while white "pods" and hits of red and vibrant yellow accent the look.

Release information for the "Playoffs" has been rumored for several months now, but the Jordan Brand finally confirmed a release date today. You'll be able to pick up the long-awaited retro on February 26th. They'll be on stock of store for the price from $65 to $160.

Even thought there are lots of retro 13. These shoes are very much known as collectables. The last shoe before these were publish in 1997 so who knows when the next ones will be released.

They are exact copies of the originals which were first released in 1992, and do not feature any changes or alterations. They feature a simple white leather upper with perforations throughout which act as a ventilation system for the foot. The midsole is black, and features white and red accents. Gold accents can also be seen on the shoe, particularly on the Jumpman logo, heel tab, and outsole.

                                                                                                      


“Cardinal” Air Jordan VII made its return when it was retried in 2006. This was the first jordan of 2006 to be available everywhere, because the first two released were limited per state releases. These retailed for is between $65 and $160 which was a little jump from when the Air Jordan VII was last retried.




The nickname “Cardinal” comes yet again straight from the colorway. These also came with a Air Jordan VII retro card, but the card has been updated since 2002. It now has a completely different graphic on the front as well as an updated shoe line on the back.

Retro 13 playoffs

PLAY OFFS

The news just keeps getting better and better for those like myself who find the Air Jordan 13 one of the most appealing Jordans. As part of their Holiday 2010 and Spring 2011 Collection Jordan Brand is bringing back the classic XIII’s in three OMG colors. News already broke on the Flint Grey’s releasing in November and the White/Red’s releasing in December, and now it’s being reported that the Playoff’s will officially release in January.

Rumors about the Air Jordan 13 Retro “Playoff” have been circulating for about a month or two, but until now there’s never been a word as to when we could even suspect them to release. The information comes from 23isback.com , which has proven to be a trusted source so take it for what it is right now. We’ll be sure to provide you with any further updates so stay tuned for further details.

After months of not seeing leaked images, we're seeing new photos of the upcoming "Playoff" here on beNay's  blog spot.  However, after a 13-year hiatus, it's hard to complain. This original Air Jordan 13 colorway is more low-key in comparison to fellow pairs like the "Flints" and Black/Red, but perhaps just as beloved. No ballistic mesh on this pair - just dimpled full grain leather, tonal nubuck, white pods and hits of yellow and red. This is probably the original Jordan 13 run that represents the "Black Cat" concept the best. I'm surprised that nickname hasn't stuck with the shoe more, considering the "Playoff" 13 was actually a shoe Michael broke out for the All-Star Game.

Cool Greys

             Cool Grey 11 is out on the streets, they're the latest shoe from the Jordan brand and they're taking the sneaker world by storm as Jordan shoes always do. However, they are competing with the signature shoes of Kobe Bryant and LeBron James for the most popular shoe on the market. To find out which one is the best, I break down all three shoes and tell you, which one is the winner.

The Cool Grey 11 release date has finally arrived. The much talked about Air Jordan's, which have been among the most widely anticipated sneakers in recent memory, hit stores today. There was much rejoicing in the sneaker community when a retro version of the shoes was announced for the 2010 Christmas season.

Featuring two kinds of grey leather on the top of the shoe, and the trademark Jump man logo on the sole, the newest Air Jordan remakes are retailing for $106.95 more than their retail price in 2001, when the original Cool Grey design was released.

RETRO 13

Retro 13

The 13 Flint is undoubtedly one of the most popular shoes in the history of Air Jordan. Some have placed on their list of the Almighty top 5 of all-time. And it is fair to say that is commendable. Air Jordan XIII (13) "Flint" will be published in November, but the publication of the data or the availability of sound and was released.

So finally after all the pictures that have been floating around for over the past 6 months now about the Flint's the Jordan 13 will be released on Black Friday (Nov 26th) for. We don't know what to think about the inflated price tag yet again on a shoe that uses to cost $135 back in the day. Even though we know the streets will grab them up, I want to know what your thoughts are about the price tag on these shoes are.

The White/Red pair was Jordan’s favorite for Home games during the     ’97-’98 regular season and we were lucky to get a low-top version in 2005, so the mid-top will be a huge hit once it releases. The Black/White pair was seen on MJ’s feet during the All-Star Game of that season as well as during Home Playoff Games. However the Retro releases looks to features a 3M-reflective mesh-like rather than the original leather – quite possibly the Black/Voltage Cherry GS kids release.
