Jordan Six Rings ‘Motorsports’ – A Closer Look
Thanks to the man Kreig Robinson from Michael Jordan Motorsports we are able to provide you with a closer look at the Jordan Six Rings ‘Motorsports’ we showed you the other day. As y0u should know by now the Six Rings were created alongside the Air Jordan VI ‘Motorsports’ to celebrate the 6th Anniversary or Michael Jordan Motorsports. The design scheme and colorway on each of the sneakers was done up in a fashion to match the new paint jobs the sportbikes and trailer received, as well as match the uniforms of the team members. The whole package is just lovely. The Six Rings, the VI’s and the bikes and trailer to match. A match made in heaven.
Unfortunately for all us Air Jordan fans these sneakers will never be released and have only been produced in extremely limited numbers exclusively for the riders and crew of Michael Jordan Motorsports, and close personal friends of MJ. There may be a pair or two which pops up on eBay or through one of the consignment shops, but dont ever expect to see these sitting on stores shelves.

Jordan Six Rings ‘Motorsports’
In 2003 Michael Jordan set out on a venture to establish his very own motorsports team in honor of his love for street bikes and the MotoGP. Each year Jordan has taken one of his popular Air Jordan models and produced them in a design exclusively for his riders Aaron Yates and Geoff May, and the rest of the Michael Jordan Motorsports crew.
Seeing as how this year is the 6th Anniversary of the team Jordan took his 6th signature sneaker and created the Air Jordan 6 ‘Motorsports’ in a white/black color scheme to resemble the fresh new paint job the bikes and trailer got this year. If you recall we took a look at the sneakers quite a few times earlier this year. To go along with the VI’s Jordan also had a limited run of Jordan Six Rings produced in the same white/black color scheme to match the paint job on the bike. Get it? 6th Anniversary, Six Rings. It makes perfect sense, just like the Air Jordan VI did.
Unfortunately the Jordan Six Rings ‘Motorsports’ will never be officially releasing to the public. Just like the VI the Six Rings are only being given out to the Michael Jordan Motorsports riders, the crew and Jordan’s personal friends. So just enjoy the pictures provided by clicking here. Props go out to G-Roc over at TSG for the photos.

Jordan ‘Break To Build’ Commercial
Jordan Brand has released a new commercial as part of their Become Legendary series. The latest commercial is titled Break to Build and has sort of caused somewhat of an argument through the YouTube comment section. Towards the end of the commercial, 0:54 to be exact, Dwayne Wade can clearly been seen wearing wearing a warm-up jacket with an adidas three-stripe logo. Its a known fact adidas is the supplier of NBA uniforms but you would think Jordan Brand would of done something to cover up the adidas logo shown in full focus. It has obviously caught the eye of enough people for the comments section to spark a massive list of remarks.
Check out the video for yourself above features Dwayne Wade, Derek Jeter and other Jordan Brand athletes.
Jordan CP3.III Preview
Chris Paul, arguably one of the most hard working athletes in the NBA will soon be getting ready to debut his third signature sneaker, the CP3.III. Honestly speaking, im not a big follower of Chris Paul’s sneakers. Dude is great on the court without a doubt but when it comes to the sneakers im not such a big fan. No disrespect Chris. Due to that i cant really report on its styling compared to the previous models but according to NiceKicks the CP3.III consists of a bulkier silhouette than any other previous Chris Paul sneaker and can be compared to the CP3.II more so then the CP3. You will also notice a little resemblance to the Air Jordan 22 thrown in there.
At this time no available release details have been posted. A few more pictures can however be found by clicking here.
Air Jordan XII ‘Rising Sun’ – Official Release Date
As you know by now the release of the Air Jordan XII ‘Rising Sun’ has been put on delay. The sneakers were originally suppose to release this past weekend on October 24th, 2009, but due to some issues with the insoles of the sneakers sporting the Rising Sun graphics Jordan Brand was forced to delay the release until the situation was handled. It is now being reported by Jordan Brand that an official release date has been set for November 21st, 2009. However, numerous reports are floating around the web about just exactly what is going on with the insoles. Some are saying the sneakers still include the Rising Sun graphics on the insoles while others are reporting that the sneakers no longer feature the Rising Sun insoles due to the complications Jordan Brand faced.
Whatever the case my be watch for them to hit Jordan Brand retailers on November 21st, 2009 or grab a pair now online at one of the many shops who have been selling them earlier with the Rising Sun insoles.
