You know the Nike Air Trainer 1, the legendary shoe designed by Tinker Hatfield that birthed the entire cross-training concept. Now there’s a new Trainer 1 on the market, but it’s definitely not what you’d expect, because it’s not even a Nike shoe. But if anybody is allowed to use the same name as one of the most influential models of all time, it’s Jordan Brand, who now present their own Jordan Trainer 1. Today we get our first look at the all-new Jordan cross-trainer, which features an elephant print jacquard textile upper that fuses seamlessly into a neoprene inner collar. With what looks like ample tread on the outsole, the Jordan Trainer 1 should prove to be a versatile training model whether you’re in the gym or on the turf. Get a preview of two black and red colorways here, and expect the Jordan Trainer 1 in stores soon.

I like the design on this model more than its predecessor. This colorway is pretty appealing but it’s not for me. I like the two-tone finish overall.

The color combo is essentially a classic, but I?m not really fond of this model. Although it hasn?t been seen since ?99, I?m sure fans of the silhouette are elated for the revival.

Another clean colorway of the Air Jordan 12. It seems like the Air Jordan 12 can do now wrong this year, not even in GS sizes.

Pretty clean colorway but I think more red should have been added to give it more of an Olympic/USA theme.

Blake Griffin is one of the most talented, explosive power forwards in the NBA, but lately, the perennial All-Star has showcased a refined game that’s grown alongside Chris Paul as one of the best one-two punches in the league. Blake also shares the spotlight with CP3 on Jordan Brand’s roster, and his Super.Fly series has showcased Flight Plate technology for a supportive yet lightweight ride for a premium basketball model going on 5 years now. The latest Jordan Super.Fly 5 adds Zoom Air cushioning to the footbed while a new XDR rubberized outsole creates a premium grip so you can play on all surfaces for longer periods of time. The upper utilizes mesh and fuse technology while fierce stripes add an aggressive aesthetic to match an even larger Jumpman branding on the side panel. Jordan Brand will be bringing the familiar “Green Glow” shade back to the model later this summer when the shoe officially unveils in the coming months. Check out more photos below and know that you can grab your pair today on eBay.

So not only did Fat Joe wear an exclusive white and gold Air Jordan 8 for the BET Awards last night, but there was also another pair that didn’t quite make it the Los Angeles.

Joe posted on his Instagram the Air Jordan 8 that you see above which features an all-black upper with a “TS” logo on the tongue which stands for his Terror Squad label, as well as lace dubraes with his face on them. The caption on the picture reads “Ok look. These were mine for a couple hours. damn baggage claim stole them in Vegas. I don’t blame you they are 1of1. sorry Reggie I guess I gotta charge it to the game #teamjordan#allthewayup #ripconfettis.” As you can see from the picture above it appears that this is the Air Jordan 8 Confetti that released over the weekend with a few alterations. The confetti print on the inside of the tongue is proof.

Looks like someone at the airport noticed just how exclusive these were and wanted them for themselves.

Jordan Brand’s celebrating the Olympics in style this summer with a number of revisionists’ takes on what could’ve been worn during the Barcelona Games back in 1992. While a number of Nike Basketball’s retros focus on the 1996 team that dominated in Atlanta given the twentieth anniversary occurring this year, Mike was unfortunately absent for those Olympics. Instead, the Jumpman is focussing on classic takes and some Gold Medal references for this summer. The latest patriotic theme lands on the Air Jordan 1 Retro High featuring a Deep Royal Blue and White base with Metallic Gold Coin accents bringing a premium finish to the Swoosh and classic Wings branding.
Expect this pair to arrive at retailers later this summer, but just in case you can’t wait, know that you can purchase your pair right now on eBay.

In addition, more touches of gold are scattered throughout its speckled sole unit to finish off the stylish design.
