OG AIR JORDAN 12 TAXI

I was organizing my shoes the other day and came across my OG pair of Air Jordan 12 "Taxi" still fresh in the box. These are definitely one of my favorite Jordans of all time. The classic white/black colorway with gold lace loops was simply beautiful. The quality of the leather and durability certainly lived up to the Jordan Brand slogan "Quality Inspired By The Greatest Player Ever". Wish JB would go back to their old standards.

Still fresh in the box!

Classic colorway!

The leather was so smooth

Gold lace loops!

AIR GRIFFEY MAX 1 GREY/MARINE

The Air Griffey Max 1 got a new look. The Grey/Marine color looks so clean and simple. Get these while you can because these have been flying off the shelves like a Griffey Jr. homer!

The different grey materials used was a nice touch.

AIR JORDAN 1 25th ANNIVERSARY EDITION

To commemorate this achievement Jordan Brand will release special edition white/silver shoes starting with the Air Jordan 1 Retro High Silver. The shoe features a metallic silver material and a special edition suitcase. The new 23 logo is also present on the tongue. Be sure to grab pair even if it's just for the suitcase.

The suitcase is sweet!

Love the new 23 logo they put.

Quality is on point with these Air Jordan 1 Retros

The Silver finish resembles foil or gum wrapper

FINALLY COPPER FOAMPOSITES!

Hope you saved a few pennies to get these Penny Copper Foamposites. Last year's Eggplant Foamposites were very popular and sold out quickly. This Copper colorway has drawn more attention so don't wait or they'll be gone. Nike finally came up with a clever idea of making a Copper color of the Air Foamposite One (former NBA star Penny Hardaway's signature shoe). The scheduled release date is this Saturday February 13th. BTW these will cost a pretty penny as they retail for $200.

Icey soles!

BIG DAY IN LA!

Another crazy release day in LA. It was cold and raining, but had a great time hanging out with fellow sneakerheads. I'm Disappointed that there was no All Star Kobe Vs. Picked up some Kobe V Bruce Lee and Jordan 6 Motorsports. Shout out to Mike, Nick and other fellow Niketalkers and Twitters for the help. For more pictures check out ILNOJ . See you at the next one!

HYPERDUNK LOW SNAKE POOL

Last year's limited Hyperdunk "Snake Pools" editions were highly sought after by Kobe and sneaker fans. Nike decided to release a low top version of the Hyperdunk "Snake Pools" this year. For those wondering they are called "Snake Pools" because Kobe wore this color during a commercial where he jumps over a pool of snakes.
