Air Jordan II Retro QF – University Blue/Black – Release Reminder

We’ve seen a couple Air Jordan 2s so far in 2010. There was the White/Black/Varsity Red colorway, which was an original, and the Bin 23s 2s which were extremely limited. Well another Air Jordan 2 is getting ready to hit shelves around the nation. This Air Jordan II Retro QF comes in a University Blue/Black colorway. This might not be the best pair of 2s this year, but many sneakerheads have been looking forward to this colorway. Most of the sneaker uses University Blue, which was the turn off for a lot of people. Black appears throughout the design, including the midsole and heel. Jordan Brand finishes off the design with a translucent outsole. These will release tomorrow, July 31st, at Jordan Brand retailers. Will you pick up a pair?

Nike Air Max Hyperdunk 2010 Black, Red, Retro

Even if Nike Hyperfuse has somehow taken over and stole the show in the scene of basketball sneakers, it does not mean that all the other shoes have been disregarded already. In fact, the complete hyper lineup is still very notable in addition to the entire Nike line. And there are still lots of shoes that will still be released with many interesting colorways that are very worthy to report or blog about. The latest we have seen is the brand new version of the Nike Air Max Hyperdunk 2010 in black, red and retro colorway.

The uppers are made in black entirely and has a flywire embedded carbon fiber. This means that they are not just lightweight than any other typical basketball shoes out in the market. But it also is known for being durable and long lasting, no matter how much you would abuse it. It has retro accents for good contrast.

Air Jordan 1 Retro High – Chocolate/Velvet Brown/Sage/Garnet

There’s no surprise that the latest colorways of the Air Jordan have been disliked. I haven’t been a fan of the Air Jordan 1 lately, and most sneakerheads feel the same way. Well this latest colorway of the Air Jordan 1 Retro High will just add more negative comments to a legendary and classic sneaker. This Air Jordan 1 Retro High comes in a Chocolate/Velvet Brown/Sage/Garnet colorway.

The sneaker features a chocolate upper, which is mostly constructed of leather. Velvet brown covers the toe box, midfoot, and the collar area. Garnet appears on the Nike swoosh, Jordan wings logo, and the Jumpman on the tongue tag. Sage is seen on the shoe laces, tongue tag, midsole stitching, and the outsole. If you’re looking forward to these, expect a release sometime this August.

Air Jordan II Retro QF – University Blue/Black

We haven’t seen much of the Air Jordan II so far in 2010. Although we have seen the Premio and the OG colorway of the Air Jordan 2, another colorway of the Jordan 2 was eyed by sneakerheads. The Air Jordan 2 University Blue/Black seems as if it was the most anticipated, but some could argue with the OG colorway. If you ask me, the OG colorway was more hyped and liked around the sneaker community. But some can’t wait for the release date of this Air Jordan II Retro QF, which is July 31st, 2010. So for those of you who don’t have patience, you can pick up a pair now on eBay. Will you cop this Air Jordan II Retro QF?

Air Jordan I High Retro – Black – Shadow Grey – White – September 09

Air Jordan I High Retro - Black - Shadow Grey - White - September 09

Jordan Brand has been spitting out Is like they’re going out of style. Highs, Mids, Lows and everything in between have been released or will release sometime in the near future. Lately they’ve been going back to their roots or listening to the people who want retroes of OG color ways instead of “variant” looking color ways. Whatever the case may be Jordan Fall 2009 preview was filled with retroes of OG color ways (some with a twist).

Thanks to FootLockerUnlocked we’ve got some better shots for you. This version uses a black full-grain leather upper with sections of what looks like aged shadow grey or Elephant print on the toe box, Swoosh and rear panel. The laces are also grey. Expect these to hit Jordan retailers some time in September, until then check out the pictures after the jump.

Color: Black/Shadow Grey-White
Style: 332550-001
