Jordan Hardcourt Classic

Posted: 27 Dec 2010 01:20 PM PST

Jordan Hardcourt Classic

One of the biggest surprises in our holiday-themed Kicks On Court was the new sneakers worn by the Jordan Brand athletes. Of course, Dwyane Wade turned heads by debuting the Air Jordan 2011 on court; yet, the sneaker selections of Ray Allen and Quentin Richardson caught many by surprise. Many thought the two players were wearing PE versions of the Air Jordan 12 or the Jordan Alpha Team 1. However, we can now confirm that this shoe is the Jordan Hardcourt Classic. This sneaker actually draws a lot of design inspiration from the aforementioned, 1997 released Jordan Alpha Team 1 which was designed specifically for college/high school players. The most glaring difference between the Jordan Alpha Team 1 and this Hardcourt Classic is the visible Air unit seen throughout the sole. It is safe to say Jordan Brand is putting a lot into its performance-based product as of late. The Jordan Hardcourt Classic will hit retailers some time in January 2011. What are your preliminary thoughts on the Jordan Hardcourt Classic? View these kicks, plus photos of Ray Allen and Quentin Richardson wearing them.

Alexander McQueen for PUMA 2011 Preview

The legendary Alexander McQueen passed in early 2010, but his cutting edge designs remain a stronghold in both high fashion and urban design. Having put together a long-running series of sneakers for PUMA, McQueen prepared the final marks on his legacy before his untimely passing. The Street Climb Mid and Low will appear in very clean grey and navy blue builds, respectively. Though not illustrative of his most outrageous work, these PUMAs still do justice to Alexander’s name.

Nike LeBron 8 V2 “Summit Lake Hornets”

Posted: 27 Dec 2010 09:43 AM PST

Nike LeBron 8 V2 Summit Lake Hornets

Much like the reoccurring “Dunkman” theme, the “Summit Lake Hornets” color scheme will always be apart of the Nike Basketball LeBron signature line. The Summit Lake Hornets was the team LeBron James first played organized basketball for back in his middle school days. As for this Nike LeBron 8 V2′s makeup, it features a mainly black base much like the Nike LeBron VII P.S. “Summit Lake Hornets” that released earlier this year. Reflective 3M sits atop the midfoot area, while teal accents appear in the form of the tongue border and swoosh. In addition, a darker blue shade is seen on the laces, swoosh border and speckled sole. No word on when or if this shoe will release; yet stay tuned, as more info should surface soon.
