Air Jordan 2 Retro – White/Silver 3M – New Pictures
Thanks to Kenlu we obtained some more photos of the Air Jordan 2 Retro – White/3M we showed you last week. Compared to the last photos we showed you these new images defiantly give us a much better look at sneakers. The base of the Air Jordan 2 Retro is made from white leather with a splash of grey on the heel. Silver 3M material is used for the pipping throughout the sneakers, as well as on part of the heel and around the toe which really helps to make the sneakers pop in the right light.
At this time we arent quite sure when an official release will happen but we are sure itll be sometime in 2010. As for these being part of the rumored Air Jordan White Collection, that has yet to be confirmed. Follow the jump to check out a few more shots of the kicks.
Air Jordan 1 High Strap (GS) – Grey/Metallic Silver/Blue
For all the younger female Jordan fans out there comes a brand new Air Jordan 1 High Strap which is sure to snap a few necks in the classroom. This Air Jordan 1 High Strap grey leather base with metallic silver on the mid-panels, toe-box and around the ankle. If you look at the close up shown above the silver paneling actual has a texture to it. Accenting the sneakers is a pair of bright blue laces and a blue outsole below a white mid-sole. The Air Jordan wings logo on the strap is finished in black as is the pinstripe on the actual strap.
This Air Jordan 1 High Strap (GS) is set to release in November 2009 in girls sizes and our friends at Millennium will be one of the many Jordan Brands retailers to carry the sneakers. Click here to check out more pictures.
Jordan Sixty Plus ‘Boston Celtics’
Next month the Air Jordan 60+ Collection will continue with the release of two Jordan Sixty Plus models and two Air Jordan 1 Phat Lows in colorways resembling the Boston Celtics and the Cleveland Cavaliers. Shown here is the Boston Celtics Jordan Sixty Plus which uses a white leather base with the heel panel constructed from black patent leather. Further use of black is used throughout the sneakers as are slight accents of green. In addition to Boston Celtics colorway this pair of the Jordan Sixty Plus also sports a black speckle design on portions of the mid-sole. The sneakers could use just a little bit more green in the design if you ask me but it is what it is. The Boston Celtics Air Jordan 1 Phat Low is where the Celtics green really comes into play.
