The Air Jordan 1 has seen its share of special makeups the last few months. For the Olympics, the show gets a splash of navy, red and silver, much like the VII and VI before. Side embroidery reminds there is no "I" in TEAM. Heads up from Bounce Mag. 

The Air Jordan Fusion models have proven to be pretty successful. Now Nike presents the Air Jordan Fusion 5 Lo. The sneaker comes in a black/varsity red colorway and features a “Is It The Shoes?” all-over print. We are not big fans of this particular colorway, but the Fusion Lo in good colors can look nice, so we are hoping there is more to come!

Shkuze has some sizes in stock now. The general release will follow some time in May. Check out more pictures after the jump.

There has been much talk about it and now it will finally be released. The Air Jordan 1 Opening Day Pack has landed at Ubiq. Definitely two nice colorways of this classic.
Check them out in detail after the jump.

The Air Jordan x Levi’s Pack is being released this weekend and already the next interesting pack comes from Brand Jordan – the Opening Day Pack, which honors the short time that Michael Jordan played Baseball.

This quickstrike release has two pairs of Air Jordan 1s dressed in home and away colors of the Chicago White Sox. Also in the package are fitteds and a matching T-shirt. We will keep you posted with more info as we receive it, but look for these March 29th for $100 per pair. Via Nicekicks.
Check out the second colorway after the jump.

The Air Jordan Countdown pack is about to be released. The pack consists of an Air Jordan 10 and an Air Jordan 13. The bundle will go for 310 USD. Concepts Boston will be releasing the pack on the 19th of January!

Jeff Staple has put up a nice post to his blog, giving some background on how the Nike Considered line was started and how the original shoe of the line evolved. Staple Design was also involved in the project from the start. Finally he connects the dots between the Considered line and the new Air Jordan XXIII’s, that also take a much more environmentally friendly approach then previous models in the Jordan collection.
It is nice seeing how a small project evolves and a concept that has been developed in that project, that was first intended for a small audience, is then pushed into bigger projects with much bigger audiences. Kind of shows that it is all worth it in the end. Jeff also points out an interesting article on the subject in Fortune Magazine.
Make sure to read it!

A while ago the Jordan Brand x Levi’s collaboration was announced. The package that will be released in March 2008, consists of denim and this Air Jordan 1. Here is a first look at the sneaker, which comes with an upper made up of red leather and denim, which has a crackle print. The Jordan trademarks are embroidered in gold on the sneakers.

Let’s see what else will be part of this pack. Something to look out for. Check out more detailed pics after the jump.

To celebrate the 23rd generation of Air Jordan, Nike has made a special leather basketball. Not only have they used premium aged leather on the ball, it also features lots of details embossed and printed on it, telling the Michael Jordan story. Pics via Kenlu.
There is no set release date so far, but this will definitely become a hard to find collectors item. Many more pictures after the jump.

Here we have already the second Nike Air Force 1 x Jordan fusion and this time the mixed in the Air Jordan 5. With a retro colorway, mixed outer sole, and all other attributes of the original Air Jordan 5, this AF1 is the perfect translation. We kind of like the outcome, certainly more than the first remix of the Air Jordan 12’s. Pics via BKRW.
Expect these to drop Spring 2008! More pictures after the jump.
