Youve Got To Check Out This Air Jordan 4 Transformer Custom Made For Mark Wahlberg

You’ve gotta check out this new Air Jordan 4 Transformer Custom. It’s a 1-of-1 commissioned creation made by The Shoe Surgeon exclusively for actor and sneakerhead Mark Wahlberg.

This bad boy is full of details (peep that heel tab though) as you can see via Jacques Slade’s video above. Slade explains that the shoe was brought to fruition since the people associated with the film’s marketing wanted to have a shoe that tied-in to the movei for promotional purposes. What you end up getting in an Air Jordan 4 inspired by Bumble Bee. A quick rundown of the shoe shows that it comes constructed out of a Yellow leather accented by the brass detailing to mimic the look of Bumble Bee. Check out the images and video above and let us know what you think.

The New Jordan Commercial Puts The Spotlight On Kawhi Leonards Two-Way Dominance

Kawhi Leonard is without a doubt one of the best two-way players in the entire world. He can light it up on the offensive end while also shutting down his competition on the other end. He already has 2 DPOY awards on under his bet and I wouldn’t be surprised if he gets another one this year. Kawhi is an overall excellent player, but what’s his best skill? This new Jordan Brand commercial (The Kawhi Question) puts that question up for debate.

Take a look at the commercial above (along with an Air Jordan 31 cameo) and let us know what you think Kawhi’s best attribute is.

The Air Jordan 13/14 DMP Finals Pack Will Also Release On SNKRS

Jordan Brand will be doing something out of the ordinary next week as they’ll be releasing a pack of retros in the middle of the week. What pack you ask? The Air Jordan 13/14 DMP Finals Pack which celebrates Michael Jordan’s 6th and final NBA Championship.

The historic 1998 championship series saw a tandem arsenal take the court: the Air Jordan 13 and Air Jordan 14. MJ switched back and forth between them during the six-game series, entering it with the former and victoriously exiting it with the latter, in thrilling fashion. Hardly anyone knew it at the time, but that sixth game would signal the end of an era. Now the Air Jordan Finals Pack returns in honor of that legendary achievement, which took two pairs to seal the deal and two hands to hoist the gold.

The pack includes a white/gold colorway of the Air Jordan 13 and a black/gold colorway of the Air Jordan 14. Some of the finer details include “They Can’t Win” and “Until We Quit” on the inside of the tongues of the 13s as well Michael shooting his patented jumper inside the hologram. The shoes will also be housed in a special commemorative box that features a print of the ?Last Shot? play drawn up by coach Phil Jackson.

You’ll have the opportunity to pick up the Air Jordan 13/14 DMP Finals Pack at select retailers, as well as on Nike SNKRS, on June 14th for a retail price of $500.

Scottie Pippen Says The Air More Uptempo Stood Out More Than The Air Jordan 11

Only a player with a game as robust as Scottie Pippen’s would be the perfect fit with the Nike Air More Uptempo, one of the most memorable sneakers in history. The shoes launched in 1996 and were showcased alongside the Air Jordan 11 and the Nike Air Shake NDestrukt, worn by Michael Jordan and Dennis Rodman, respectively. But the combination of the Uptempo’s eccentric design and Scottie’s multi-tool/multi-position game made the Air More Uptempo a true icon in sports and sneaker history.

Scottie recently discussed the Air More Uptempo, noting that the Uptempos stood out above MJ’s Air Jordan 11 and Rodman’s NDestrukts, calling it the “graffiti basketball shoe”. Read the full interview with Scottie on Nike News to get more insight on the retro basketball shoe of the moment.
