After seeing them previewed in January, we still have nothing concrete on the white pair’s release, but just one day after the Nike Air Max 90 ‘CBF Pack’ popped up in black, it’s ready for retail. These new Ninetys are created in honor of the national governing body for soccer in Brazil, Confederação Brasileira de Futebol. Those guys musta liked the ostrich Infrared AM90s that dropped a couple years back cos these feature that same bumpy texture on the black mudguard. Everything else is black too, and you can click through to get a better look at the CBF Air Max 90, then grab yours when they go on sale in just a few short hours from Caliroots.

We saw in the ‘Dominate Another Day: Gadgets’ spot that the Air Jordan 2011‘s orange midair-hovering insoles “aren’t even ready yet,” but Dwyane Wade’s taking full advantage of the Quick/Explosive interchangeable insoles. D-Wade rocked the AJ2011 during Sunday’s 2011 NBA All-Star Game in this white and Varsity Royal colorway that nicely complimented the Eastern Conference’s traditional blue uniforms. The Air Jordan 2011 made its grand debut over the weekend, and if you missed your chance to grab the ASG edition, grab it from FinishLine or get your pair now on eBay.

With the second half of the NBA Season now in full swing and the trade deadline approaching, teams on the cusp of contention are turning it up and doing what they can to jump up another level. Just ask the New York Knicks, who just completed a trade for Carmelo Anthony. With their new superstar in the line-up, the Knicks won their first game with Melo hitting a few key shots down the wire. No Knicks PE yet, but Melo wore the White/Obsidian Melo M7 to closely match the Knicks’ Royal and Orange. Earlier today, Sneaker News showed you Amir Johnson’s Air Jordan XII and Gilbert Arenas’ Air Jordan IX, but there were plenty of other notable kicks, like Kobe Bryant’s Nike Zoom Kobe VI PE in purple/white. Joe Johnson wore the Air Jordan Icons for the second game in a row, while John Wall gave his Reebok Question Mid a repeat as well. There’s still a lot more to see so check out the rest of the NBA action after the jump! via ESPN.

When you check out today’s Sneaker News NBA Feet feature, you’ll notice 2011 NBA All-Star MVP Kobe Bryant wore yet another Nike Zoom Kobe VI that partially matched his LA Lakers uniforms last night. We can’t help but wonder why none of the ZK6s have featured both purple and yellow, but there’s no denying this new gradient colorway is quite solid. Fading from purple down to black, these Zoom Kobe VIs make us wonder what a Duke pair would look like with royal blue instead. Click through to get a better look, let us know what you think about the latest Kobe Bryant signature sneaker and stick with Sneaker News to see the Black Mamba wearing these in last night’s Portland game. via in52

With February drawing to a close, a few key items from the Nike/Jordan Brand Black History Month Pack have hit at just the right time. Check out the Nike Zoom Kobe VI and Air Jordan III Retro ‘BHM’ editions, both of which are crafted in black with gold accents. The black sections get a rich tonal effect thanks to the symbols pressed into the TPU and laser etched into the leather of these respective models. They’re each a perfect match for the Nike Sportswear Destroyer varsity jacket, and you can cop the entire collection today courtesy of the homies at Extra Butter.

Charlotte Bobcats coach Paul Silas recently said in an interview that Michael Jordan, at age 47, could still average 20 points a game. Michael participates in the Charlotte Bobcats practices from time to time and based on Coach Silas’ observations, “he still has the shot.” During a recent shoot-around session with Gerald Wallace, Tyrus Thomas, and other Charlotte players, Michael Jordan wore the Air Jordan 2011 in White/Black-Anthracite. Whether or not he chose ‘Quick’ (Zoom) or ‘Explosive’ (Max Air) hasn’t been determined, but the old baldy can still work up a sweat and teach the youngsters a thing or two. Continue reading for more of Michael Jordan and his Jordans after the jump and let us know what you think. via hoopchina.

Amar’e Stoudemire broke out a new colorway for the 2011 NBA All-Star Game this past Sunday, and while the black and blue look would work for regular season play as well, here’s a look at a new Nike Air Max Fly By PE that’s pure New York basketball. Were this colorway any more natural a match for home games at Madison Square Garden, they’d have to have the entire Knickerbockers team name plastered on ‘em. As it turns out, this white-based AM Fly By with mostly orange accents plus a few blue hits is a far better look with the ‘AS’ logo at its lateral ankle, and with Carmelo Anthony having helped NYK secure the win after Amar’e fouled out last night, Knicks fans have even more to celebrate (seriously; get ready for some of the best Air Jordan colorways ever!). Click through to see more of Amar’e's latest Nike Basketball player exclusive and stick with Sneaker News for the latest in NBA Feet.

Hot on the heels of our latest look at the Air Max JR hybrid is this colorway borrowed from 2009′s initial Air Griffey Max 1 retro. Check out the Nike Air Griffey Max II (not to be confused with the Air Griffey Max GD II) in the ‘Fresh Water’ colorway that found the AGM1 leaving retail shelves as fast as they could be stocked. These joints feature a lockdown lacing system, carbon fiber heel counter and Max Air cushioning in the heel and forefoot. They’re not all that dissimilar to the original teal joints that will also retro later this year, so this begs the question, these or OGs? Click through to see more of the Fresh Water Griffey Max II and stick with Sneaker News for the exact release date, currently set for April.

Dudes have been rocking Jordans to prom since the AJXI introduced basketball sneakers to patent leather, but it’s considerably less frequent to see them on what many consider the most important single day of their lives. But we did just see a beautiful bride rocking a pair of 25th Anniversary Elevens, so the precedent has been set for Jays as the footwear of choice for a gala wedding. Such is the case with this crazy Air Jordan V sample that was created as a 1of1 for a Jordan Brand executive’s nuptials back in 2006. The date of the ceremony is embroidered into the inner tongue tag, with the black, white and gold colorway strongly resembling the AJVI DMP (and of course, something of an Un-DMP XI). Click through to get a better view and let us know if you’ve ever worn your Jays to a formal event. Thanks Carter1203

Here’s a double-dose of some NBA Feet Air Jordan action. Gilbert Arenas wore the Air Jordan IX in the OG White/Black-Varsity Red colorway during Orlando’s match-up against the Sacramento Kings. Up North, Amir Johnson of the Toronto Raptors grabbed our attention by wearing the Air Jordan XII in White/Varsity Red. While we know about Gilbert’s penchant for sneakers, Johnson has been relatively quiet throughout the season, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t know his kicks. In fact, he was spotted wearing Playoff XIIIs during the NBA All-Star Weekend, as he was on hand to assist teammate and Dunk Contest participant Demar Derozan for the night. Check out both Arenas and Johnson in their Jordans after the jump and let us know which of the two kicks you like better! via ESPN.
