Air Jordan Retro Collection – Noctilucence Socks


Last week, we gave you a preview of an interesting new addition to the Jordan Brand apparel arsenal. As part of the Air Jordan Retro Collection, JB will be releasing a set of Noctilucence (glow in the dark) Socks that feature elements from some classics in the legendary Air Jordan catalog. You may have already seen some of the different versions in our preview last week, but now we get a look at some more that are lined up such as some less talked about Jordans like the XVII, XVIII and XXI. It also appears that there will be another variation of the socks that has been created based on the Air Jordan V featuring the “shark tooth” design on the toe and a different collector’s box. Keep reading after the jump to check out a detailed look at the upcoming collection.

Nike Air Max 1 Patta – White/Chlorophyll – Holiday 2009


Back in July, we gave you a look at an intriguing new collaboration between Nike and Amsterdam sneaker heavyweights, Patta, with the Air Max 1 as the weapon of choice. Now, we get a sneak peek at another Air Max 1 colorway whipped up by the Patta/Nike team. This version sticks close to the OG Air Max 1 color blocking, but throws in some Lime Green as the main accent color. The rest of the shoe sports sections of Grey suede and White mesh, giving it a nice classic look with a new twist. Aside from just the color scheme, Patta has put their signature on these by way of a special block-lettered tongue label. Keep reading to get a closer look at these and to compare them with the other upcoming Patta Air Max 1. Both are expected to drop some time this Holiday season, so be sure to stay tuned for more pics and info on the collaboration.

Nike Big Nike High – Lil’ Dez Quickstrike @ House of Hoops


Back in August, we gave you a little sneak peek at a special edition of the Big Nike High inspired by the Nike MVPuppets ad campaign. In addition to the obvious star power of the LeBron and Kobe puppets, Lil’ Dez also put in a strong performance in a supporting role. Although the commercials are over for now, Nike is doing their part to make sure that Dez doesn’t get forgotten, so they have whipped up this new version of the Big Nike High. The shoe sports a solid Sport Red leather upper with a White midsole and Varsity Purple lining. Several personal nods to Lil’ Dez are included, most notably, the tongue label and the Lil’ Dez block letters that replace the standard Nike logo. If you’re feeling these attention-grabbers, they will be hitting House of Hoops locations today, October 27th.

Nike Blazer High – Dark Obsidian – Varsity Red


Don’t even read this description and go ahead and buy these now. Not to sound like a shill, but this pair of Nike Blazer Highs is just such an obvious hit that it seems only natural. They go with that perfect-for-sneakers mix of black (in this case, actually a super-dark blue-black), red and white that suggest they’ll find plenty of fans in Chicagoland. A mix of lightly tumbled leather and smooth nubuck, both in black, form the base for those red and white accents. It’s a simple can’t-miss design and is available today from jordanbrandseller on eBay.
