Air Jordan XX3 (Jordan 23) Photo Leak!

Jordan Brand planned on making the initial press release and unveiling of the Air Jordan 23 after the dawn of the new year, but shoe enthusiasts with access to top secret material had other plans. Last week, Jordan Brand held a special media day where all attendees had to promise on their first child not to leak anything; unfortunately, other individuals didn’t have to make the same commitments.The Air Jordan XX3 (Jordan 23) is a ground breaking shoe like many of the other Air Jordans. MJ and JB took strides forward with sustainability producing the shoe without the use of any glue - the first of its kind for a performance basketball shoe. This was accomplished with complex and fine tuned engineering from none other than Tinker Hatfield. The stitching on the side of the shoe adds strength to the shoe, but also makes it much harder to bootleg - something else that JB took into consideration when making these shoes.
The Air Jordan XX3 will release in February as usual. Only 23 doors will receive 23 pairs of the special edition Air Jordan XX3 that will retail for $230. The initial color you might ask? We’ll let Gentry tell you on January 1st unless there is another leak, but think UNC. Leaked photos first seen on NikeTalk.

Air Jordan Spizikes “OG Color” Dissected

This year has been a major year for an Air Jordan creation - the Air Jordan Spizike. This shoe is a hybrid of every Air Jordan shoe that Spike Lee and Mike Jordan promoted together. Saving the best for last, Jordan Brand is going to release the “Original Colors” Spizike this December. This sneaker blends the best of each model represented all thrown together on one shoe.
We took some up close photos for you putting the Spizikes side by side with the classic Air Jordans it represents. No more words needed. Release date is November 23, 2007!!!

Supreme x Nike Air Trainer TW II

Originally released in 1988, the Nike Air Trainer TW was an off-shoot of the classic Air Trainer SC. The Trainer TW incorporated some new design features which differentiated itself from its older brother such as a lighter composition and a low cut profile. Through out its time, Bo Jackson was the poster child and spokesperson for the Air Trainer series.
18 years after the original inception of the Air Trainer TW II in 1989, the Air Trainers are back. Four new colorways were created with the help of Supreme. This time around, the shoes have unique colorups that unmistakably take inspiration from several classic Air Jordans.Stateside Supreme stores will see this package release on Thursday, November 8th while the Japanese release will take place one day later on Friday, November 9th.

Air Max 90 Infrared x Air Force 1 Low

You saw the beautiful Air Max 90 Infareds, now welcome to the family the Air Force Infared. It may not be as stunning as its cousin, but it can still hit you in the eye (in the good way). Sure it has a leather toe box and a white midsole but I'm sure we can all look past those irritating details. Not much info is known about these, so stay tuned on this site for more info ASAP!!

Transformer Trainer Release Info

As our long awaited wait has come to an end, the Transformer Trainer 3s are now FINALLY releasing after 5 bloody months after the movie release!!. Whatever, its here now, so dont cry. I personaly think these trainers could use a little more work, other then that theses are stunning. how often do you see a McDonalds look-a-like Trainer. NEVER!! For those who dont know these also come with an extra beautiful flourescent Green set of laces. I personaly would stick with the grey. Having green laces are just pushing the hypebeast line! But whatever. By the way did I mention that the toe box is a 3M material!!

Too bad for the Canadians who bought them in our beloved counrty paid abit more then the American retail. Of course store location matters aswell. example, Goodfoot's prices were $180, but Livestock's prices were $175. I know it may not sound like much but be honest, who would you go too. Blasted Americans and their low retails. OUR SB'S ARE $130 RETAIL, YOURS ARE $70!!!!.

Overall, these were worth the wait. Better then the originals samples by a long shot!

Supreme F/W '07 5-Panel Caps

Believe it or not, but there are also caps which are not New Eras and not fitted! In the past months it has really become crazy around caps, with every brand making their own New Era cap and everybody wanting to top the last hottest cap. What used to be the t-shirt, then the all-over print hoodie, now seems to be the 5950 New Era cap. Let's see how long this will last.
In the mass of New Era caps dropping, it is nice to also see some well designed 5-panel caps come out and Supreme has always well taken care of that. It is no different this Fall/Winter 2007 season. They present a range of different 5-panel Camp caps. They have a Wool Plaid series and a Speckled series, both reminding of the old days and the classic Kangol hats. Otherwise they also offer the Check Caps, which come with a tonal checkered pattern and the Tree Camo caps, where the name hints the design. All styles come in different colorways and of course each cap features the Supreme box logo.

Leader Chicago x New Era Caps

Leaders 1354 Chicago once again got together with New Era to make some fresh New Era caps. For the first time the store does not use their usual 4 letter logo on the front and uses a simple font based logo.

One cape comes with a classic houndstooth pattern and black/white logo. On the back there is the embroidery "Chicago 1354".

The other cap comes in a very refreshing colorway, mixing white, pink and brown together. The turnout is actually surprisingly nice. Again on the back there is the embroidery "Chicago 1354". The caps are now available in store and online. Check out more pictures after the jump.
