Air Jordan VIII ‘History Of Flight’ – Available on eBay

Air Jordan VIII History Of Flight   Available on eBay

The Air Jordan ‘History Of Flight’ Collection was a depiction, by way of footwear, of Michael Jordan’s illustrious career and trail-blazing iconism of the shoe game. Placed on display at select Niketown locations around the glove, the Air Jordan ‘History Of Flight’ capitalized on the trademark White/Red colorway made famous by Michael by re-creating every Air Jordan in that colorway. Next up in our mini-feature of the History Of Flight is the Air Jordan VIII, so let’s think back to one of Michael’s most famous moments in the Air Jordan VIII; in Game 6 of the ’93 NBA Finals, Michael, who was expected to take the final shot of the game, passed the ball along to a wide-open John Paxson, who hit the series-winning 3-pointer. Michael, of course, went on to be the greatest player of all-time, while John Paxson continued his Bulls tenure as part of upper management, creating yet another championship attitude behind Derrick Rose and the Bulls.

Nike Zoom Hyperenforcer iD Samples

Nike Zoom Hyperenforcer iD Samples

Last week was an absolutely massive one for NIKEiD, as the Swoosh’s online customization service launched new models including the Zoom KD IV (plus its YOTD template), Special Field Boot and the return of the Air Max+ 2009, followed a day later by Elephant print options for the latest Air Force 1 iD limited engagement.  It was a big couple of days, but arguably none of those shoes came with more options than the Nike Zoom Hyperenforcer iD that also launched on January 31st.  These offer a variety of colors in relatively simple blocking patterns, but the big draw is the unprecedented option to choose between Zoom and Max Air cushioning in the heel.  Nike Basketball tends to give models like these unique names, but in a year when we’ve seen the Zoom Kobe VII and Air Jordan 2012 take swappable cushioning units to new heights, it feels right to have a silhouette that you can build from the ground up.  Check out a few more sample designs after the jump and let us know which colors you applied to the Zoom Hyperenforcer on NIKEiD.

Could we expect this colorway in 2013, the 23rd Anniversary of the ? Sneaker News first showed you this funky Air Jordan V sample back in July of 2011 – a product sample that was never produced (with just 3 pairs rumored to in existence). The combination of colors isn’t very different to what we’ve grown accustomed to (a quick glimpse and you might even mistake these as an original), but these are in fact a brand new seedling that leaked out probably in 2007 when the AJV was re-released in a wide array of colorways. the most notable feature of this sample is the translucent red outsole (something never seen in the Air Jordan V), but the red inner lining might have you wondering if this was a variant version of the original ‘Fire Red’. We’ve got a detailed set of images below (with some nice side-by-side comparisons with the actual Air Jordan V ‘Fire Red’) so take a look and check out the listing from abtmchan on eBay.

Nike Zoom Rookie LWP   Black   Gold | Sample

Penny Hardaway’s Memphis Blues, Memphis Express, and White/Silver PEs of the should provide a nice hint of what could possibly come in terms of future Zoom Rookie colorways. Simply put, the tonal package just works. We’ve yet to receive one in the uni-color make-up, but the March release of the Anthracite/Black seems to be the closest, but check out this Sample version of the Nike Zoom Rookie LWP in Anthracite, featuring a golden swoosh at the toe and along the stitched applique along the length of the tongue; Black and Gold has always been an unmistakeable combination, resulting in numerous classics like the original Defining Moments Package as well as the honorable Black History Month releases, so there’s no doubt that this Anthracite/Black with the acute golden touch would’ve been widely popular. We’ve got additional angles for you below, so take a look and let us know what you think. via diirtyvandal of NT.
