Sneaker News recently reported the upcoming Retro releases of the Air Jordan X for late 2011/early 2012. Will we see this brand new colorway hit the shelves? Here’s a look at an Air Jordan x Promo Sample which features a white/black ‘Oreo’-like upper. It features the signature checkered inner lining and Jumpman on the heel, but the one new aspect of the Air Jordan X is the color-blocking. No other Air Jordan X features a different colored mudguard (in fact, all of them have tonal uppers), and the closest resemblance this has to any original colorway is the Air Jordan X ‘Steel’, which features a white mudguard and Steel Grey lacing units. What do you think of these unreleased Jordans? Would you like to see color-blocking like this in the future? Check out the extra shot below and chime in with your thoughts on this Air Jordan X. A big thanks to Fatboykickz for the pics.

I'm not really feeling these.. they tried too hard. I'm glad the 10s are coming out.. and i really hope finally after years some basketball 10s come out.. LIKE the Chicago Bull 10s New York Knick 10s Orlando Magic 10s Sacramento King 10s or Super Sonic 10s. I would love for all of those to come out. or at least The Chicago Bull 10s and New York Knick 10s

oreo 10s
February 16th, 2011 at 12:15 am
Not feeling the black mudguard personally prefer the og look without it. But at the same time I'll admit if they do re-release looking like this it still wouldn't keep me from copping.
February 16th, 2011 at 12:25 am
Glad their coming out again this isn't bad, but i'm not coppin
February 16th, 2011 at 1:12 am
They make a fusion out of this sneaker then want to do this C'Mon Son give the people what they want
February 16th, 2011 at 1:37 am
BEETLEJUICE! BEETLEJUICE! BEETLE JUICE!!!
February 16th, 2011 at 3:33 am
people on NT sayin these look fake, you guys better hope they arent since you posted those Lu black/ white 3s and claimed they were legit…..what I'm saying is if these are fake, then you [SN] will seriously lose your reputation, imo based on what heads on NT isnt very high as it is…..i kinda like em, but they arent fire.
February 16th, 2011 at 5:05 am
I like the concept bcuz Xs lack color blocking but PLLLEASE dont do this wit the Steel Xs you gotta respect the OGs JB.
February 16th, 2011 at 5:43 am
I need the linen X's back!!! Please! I'm looking for a pair since the summer of 2010 and I just can't find one. Pleeeeaase JB!
February 16th, 2011 at 8:08 am
Sonics dont exist nomore.
February 16th, 2011 at 8:38 am
yeah im with most everyone…but if ur gonna bring these out at least wait till u give me my chicago cw…and i'll take the sonics too please
February 16th, 2011 at 9:46 am
lol @ Gas station colorway but yeah those are garbage just retro the City X's JB.
February 16th, 2011 at 9:55 am
as long as they bring back the Steel colorway. ill be fine. these not bad tho.
February 16th, 2011 at 10:39 am
These are awful. Please dont ruin the X's. I was very excited to hear about them re-releasing. However if they look like this I will easily pass. Cmon JB!
February 16th, 2011 at 11:01 am
damn people abbreviate in ebonics now…. wdf….
February 16th, 2011 at 11:04 am
so you like possibly fake shoes. you say all that shit then say you like them…. go suck your boy toys on NT d-bag
February 16th, 2011 at 11:06 am
Shit looks fake !
February 16th, 2011 at 12:43 pm
I'll take the OG colorways over this BS anyday. Steel Gray, Sonics, Kings, Chicago, Magic… u know..the classics.
February 16th, 2011 at 1:01 pm
Smh! i totally agree, the OG 10's were perfect..so with that being said, dont mess up a good thing JB.

I'm just stating the fact that SN posted those Lu altered samples and called them legit. They cant deny it…..And yes SN doesnt have that good of a rep since it bites off hella sites, mainly NikeSB.org, and doesnt get a lot of its info directly. I stress "a lot" because it does get some exclusive info such as certain events and such, but for the most part it bites. And honestly most of the time, it doesnt give credit to the real soruce, (dunkbar.de does a lot of its own research and NikeSB.org reports on it, but they give credit to dunkbar.de where as SN gives credit to NikeSB.org (not the real source))
NT/ISS heads are the sneakerheads that make the trends and if they dont like SN, then thats it. Still they shouldnt have posted the Lu's and claimed they were legit because that shows they arent the real "authority" in sneakers.
Just to show the opinions of one NT head who posted after I did in the Lu follow up thread,
""Sneakernews is a complete JOKE. First, they get most of their information from HERE. They promote the dumbest things ever, they've had Gilbert Arenas shoes on there for the past few months. They advertised the guy on ebay trying to get ridiculous money for his collection (which is what he wanted, publicity). Then, good lord the amount of fake shoes on that site they promote. There is a pair of OG sample IV's that exist somewhere and some guy on ebay had them (clearly fake) and they just blew that right up, had it on their site and more updates for almost a week. The people that post there are dumb as well (no offense to anyone reading). They had the pony hair IV's and other Lu stuff on there and I brought it up just go get about 15 "thumbs down" because they don't wanna accept that their site is terrible ""
February 16th, 2011 at 10:16 pm
Ahahahaa sidney they neeed to stick to the OG colorways
February 16th, 2011 at 10:46 pm
They came out as 10s once.. they can easily remake it and do it again.. and make them knick 10s Bulls 10s Kings and Magic 10s
February 20th, 2011 at 1:41 am
not really liking these and hope they still release the steel 10s caus im tryin to get those not these
