We have a feeling that we have seen more Air Jordan 1 releases in this first three months of the new year than we have seen all of last year. That may be a bit of an exaggeration, but it certainly does seem that way, and anybody who likes the Air Jordan 1 will certainly be able to appreciate all of the different options that they have as of late.
The newest version that we have uncovered is this new Air Jordan 1 Phat LS Marine Blue. The shoe will feature a tonal marine blue upper that is spread across two different materials. The material that is used on the toe, heel and wings ankle seems to be translucent as the seams are totally visible through the fabric. These ones are slated for an April release at the time of this writing. What are your opinions on these new shoes?

This year we’ve already seen the Air Jordan 1 Retro AJKO in the White/Varsity Red/Black edition, and today we bring you the newest edition to release later this year in the White/White/Red edition. These kicks, just like the White/Varsity Red/Black edition, feature the vintage look, with the all canvas upper. Simple colorway, but definitely a nice addition to anyone’s Spring/Summer collection.
The upper of these Air Jordan 1 AJKO come in an all white canvas, with tonal white laces and inner lining. The Varsity Red accents come in the red leather Nike Swoosh, the tongue lining, the Air Jordan Wings, in the tongue tag, and in the distressed sole. Just like the sole, the mid sole gets a yellowed vintage white mix. Great new addition to the AJKO releases, but the vintage look is not cutting it for me, but make sure you stay tuned for any updates.

Last week, University of North Carolina and two other Jordan Brand sponsored universities wore their “Silver Anniversary” Jordan jerseys along with their “Silver Anniversary” Air Jordan 2010 PEs to honor Air Jordan franchise’s 25th year anniversary. Today, we showcase another set of PEs from the UNC vault in the form of the Jordan Icons.
The Jordan Icons is currently the ‘in’ sneaker on the NBA courts as we have spotted players such as Mike Bibby, Ray Allen, Joe Johnson and DJ Augustin wearing them. UNC’s Icons PE obviously owns the timeless white/university blue color scheme. Its leather upper is primarily white and sits atop a university blue midsole. UNC’s logo is seen on the quarter panel and a silver Jumpman rests on the tongue. Why would you want to sign a letter of intent to play anywhere else? Click here to view additional photos.

The Jordan Brand has hit us with many designs in the past and here we have a big change in their style. This pair of Air Jordan II’s features a brown leather upper with the 23 on the side as a wax stamp seal. They didn’t stop there though as they added faux-snakeskin which adds the finishing touch to this pair of what you could call dress Jordan shoes.
They also went as far as complimenting the packaging as they have included a wooden shoe tree as well as a card note that is sealed with a wax stamp. The packaging definitely adds to the style of this pair of Jordans and would make for a nice pick up.

Now the locations have not been made known but by registering with the Jordan Brand or if you follow them on twitter (twitter.com/SoleSeek) you will be able to receive a couple clues on the locations. We’re not sure how helpful the clues will be but any clue is a nice advantage. So if you must have all three pairs let the hunt begin.

Earlier this year, the first model of the Air Jordan Alpha 1, the Bred colorway made its debut on the world. Since that we have seen some other cool colorways like the Ray Allen and Tinker Hatfield editions. This one is probably the pair that you have all been waiting on more news about since this is the one that Dwayne Wade wore on Christmas Day.
If you are still unfamiliar with what the Air Jordan Alpha 1 is, it is an updated version of the Classic Air Jordan 1, enhanced through the use of Zoom technology and new age materials. This allows the shoe to hold on to the classic look that people have come to know and love while still giving players top notch performance. There is a whole lot of perforated leather featured on this shoe, most of that being on the white sections in the midfoot and toe box.
