Air Jordan 2010 Outdoor Black/White Posted: 25 Jun 2010 05:28 PM PDT Regardless of the variety of colorways that the Air Jordan 2010 Playground Outdoor has released in, sneaker heads everywhere have expressed negative opinions regarding the overall design of this new model. Photos have surfaced of a new colorway of the Air Jordan 2010 Playground Outdoor. This new design of the Air Jordan 2010 Playground consists of a completely black upper set on a completely black sole. Hints of white can be seen on the text printed on the straps and the tongue. Does this more subtle colorway change your opinion of the Air Jordan 2010 Outdoor?

Nike Air Royal Mid VT Club Purple/Blue Posted: 25 Jun 2010 04:58 PM PDT It has been nearly two months since we last showed you the new Nike Air Royal Mid VT “Macarons” Pack. The pack of five monochromatic Air Royal Mid VTs received mixed reviews regarding the materials and colors used. In this pair of Nike Air Royal Mid VTs we are showing you today, Nike makes use of three colors in a very unique and different way. A blue molded leather is used on the toebox tongue, while an eye catching purple cloth-like material is used on side panels, swoosh, and back. This color paneling is unlike any we have seen recently and is sure too catch the eye of many. White is used sparingly on the laces and midsole. Head over to Nike’s 21 Mercer store to pick up a pair.

Air Jordan 9 “Charcoal” Detailed Photos Posted: 25 Jun 2010 03:28 PM PDT Just two days ago we saw the Air Jordan 9 “Charcoal” 2010 retro for the first time. This famed colorway is returning for the first time since its original release in the nineties, and older sneakerheads couldn’t be more pleased. The upper of this shoe combines black and Dark Charcoal suede. True Red accents appear on the liner, tongue and heel, just as the OG shoe did. We noticed the charcoal used here is slightly lighter than the hue used on the OG pair. These detailed photos give us a better look, which should further help you decide on whether you want these when they release.
