We’ve already had a sneak peek at the Air Jordan III, but over the weekend, the entire 2010 Doernbecher Freestyle collection was finally unveiled. The annual project matches six patients at the Doernbecher Children’s Hospital with top Nike designers to create their own unique sneakers, which are then produced and sold for retail with proceeds benefiting the hospital. This year’s line-up features the aforementioned Air Jordan III, as well as an Air Force 1 and a P-Rod 2.5 for the guys, with the girls’ designs represented by the Free Run+, Air Max Zenyth and Zoom Vomero+ 5. Keep reading for a look at this year’s batch of Doernbecher creations and stay tuned for more pics and info on the entire Doernbecher Freestyle Project v7.0 collection. Congrats to this year’s group of Doernbecher designers on a job well done! Help support the cause by grabbing yourself a pair or two when the shoes release in November.

October 11th, 2010 at 8:09 pm
definitely getting those 3s when they come out, prods and the forces look good too, all the kids did a great job in my opinion
October 11th, 2010 at 8:12 pm

October 11th, 2010 at 8:12 pm
I need those 3's now!!!
October 11th, 2010 at 8:26 pm
they did a very good job with these. i would love to have all three of the mens shoes.
October 11th, 2010 at 8:39 pm
I'm glad to see these kids smile and be part of something special. I hope they all sell out and not go on sale like the last run. Lets not forget these kids usually have a terminal illness.
October 11th, 2010 at 8:49 pm
i hope you kids get better. i will buy your 3s for now
October 11th, 2010 at 8:49 pm

October 11th, 2010 at 8:51 pm
can't believe kids design better shoes than Jordan's designers that actually design shoes for a living. SHM
October 11th, 2010 at 8:54 pm
Great shoes for a great cause! I think the all are nice. Those Free Runs look like art very nice use of color. Those Jordan III's are very nice I can't wait to get them.
October 11th, 2010 at 9:05 pm

October 11th, 2010 at 9:23 pm
The Jordan III's, and the Air Forces are my favorites of the bunch. But not bad all around.

October 11th, 2010 at 9:46 pm
thats gotta be an amazing experience for the kids, designs are pretty cool too.
October 11th, 2010 at 9:49 pm
yo that kid should have done the p-rods from last year I'm actually diggin them joints.
October 11th, 2010 at 10:01 pm
So the AF1's are a go because Im a big supporter of the DB collection and I have the past 2 AF1's and the The 3's are a go because theyre one of my favorite models and the clear sole is Ridiculously dope, but i think im throwing white laces in, instead of grey..
October 11th, 2010 at 10:03 pm
WHAT IS THE RELEASE DATE???
October 11th, 2010 at 10:03 pm
CONGRATULATION$ to the group of Doernbecher designers and the kids on job well done! If the shoes don't sell out fast, I would cop the AF1's or the AJ3'$; to help support the cause.
October 11th, 2010 at 10:08 pm

October 11th, 2010 at 10:25 pm

October 12th, 2010 at 10:27 am
THE AF1S ARE TERRIBLE… MIXING ORANGE AND RED SHOULD BE ILLEGAL
October 12th, 2010 at 10:28 am
If I was a chick, I'd get those frees in a minute, but since I'm a dude, I'll cop the 3s and AF1s and possibly the p-rods. It is for a good cause after all. These kids did awesome.
October 12th, 2010 at 10:48 am
The 3's r not that hot…Great thing that Nike has done for the kids tho…Im really feeling the forces and the P-Rods
October 12th, 2010 at 10:48 am

October 12th, 2010 at 11:36 am
Gotta have those 3's
October 12th, 2010 at 12:03 pm
p-rods are fire. it helps knowing the proceeds arent going to rich guys in suits and ties.
October 12th, 2010 at 12:24 pm
Amen bro! knowing that they have these illnesses but can sit there and smile so big just brings a tear to my eye. great job kids!! i hope to get the III's of course, but may try to grab the other 2 mens shoes just for the cause. might even get my girl the girl ones.
