In order for the Air Jordan Legacy to remain strong, Jordan Brand has the tough task of re-inventing its most storied Air Jordan designs without abandoning the essence of each model. In comes the Jordan CMFT Series, which adapts popular Air Jordan signatures with Nike Air Max running technology. The Jordan CMFT Air Max 10 takes on the Air Max 97-inspired full-length Max Air while utilizing a low-cut version of the Air Jordan X upper. This new tonal Varsity Royal colorway is similar to the three ‘Candy Pack’ releases that hit stores not long ago, but this ‘blue’ colorway is a nice pick-up if you’re a fan of the color. Eastbay just made these available so take a look at the new images below and grab a pair now on eBay.

We’ve been seeing previews since late last year but with new colorways of the P-Rod 4 coming out every month, what has become of the fifth Nike SB Paul Rodriguez signature sneaker? Here’s our first fresh look at the Nike SB P-Rod 5 in a couple months, this trio of simple colorways slated to hit retailers in Q1 of next year. Each of them is crafted in TPU-reinforced suede with no-sew construction and features a moldable foam sockliner along with a departure for the P-Rod series: a switch from Zoom Air cushioning to a LunarLon sole. Click through to see shots of each pair and stick with Sneaker News for more including the P-Rod V release date. via CK.

Earlier today Sneaker News showed you an all-new colorway of the Air Jordan 2011 Quick Fuse in Black/Photo Blue. Adopting similar color-blocking patterns, here’s a look at yet another new Quick Fuse in Black/Varsity Red; a black upper with a patent leather toe-box is matched with a varsity red heel – also in patent leather – and a midsole/outsole combo of varsity red/white. The Quick Fuse is just one of the beginning examples of Jordan Brand footwear designs implementing Nike technology, so what else could be in the works? Check out the detailed images of this new colorway after the jump and stick with Sneaker News for more Air Jordan 2011 updates. via in52.

The Jordan Brand Quai 54 Basketball Tournament will go down in the near future, and last year’s release of the Air Jordan IX ‘Quai 54′ was enough indication that another Quai 54 Retro Jordan would hit this year. Last month Sneaker News showed you the Air Jordan V Quai 54, which features a White/Black-Metallic Silver-Radiant green colorway, and the hype surrounding the shoe grew immediately. We haven’t seen too many shots of the shoe, but recently Fabolous wore a fresh pair for a music video shoot, and now we get another on-foot image – an angle that many sneakerheads like to see before they consider a purchase. Check out the extra shot below and let us know if you think these would look sick on your feet! via air-randy.

Last time we saw a video featuring Complex‘s Joe La Puma, he was out on the town with Jim Jones in NYC, shopping for kicks at Flight Club. This latest clip hits a bit closer to home for Joe, as he invited Clyde from InsidetheSneakerBox to tour Complex’s New York offices and check out some selections from his personal in-house sneaker stash. The building was abuzz with talk of Tuesday’s Sneakerpedia Launch Party, but they still made time to take a walk-through to show off some kicks and talk with Complex sneaker editor Russ Bengston, who just so happened to have some rare OG and PE heat right there at his cubicle. (and on his feet!) Click through to see the video in its entirety and let us know what catches your eye.

If Johnny Cash or Elvis rocked Jordans today, these would be it (Blue Suede Shoes?). Here’s a look at an unreleased sample of an Air Jordan V Retro, featuring a tonal navy blue suede upper. This 2010 unreleased sample features light grey accents around the upper of the shoe and light blue on the Jumpman on the heel, the inner lining, and on the laces, and would’ve made a nice ‘Lifestyle’ release that would’ve fallen in the category of the Green Bean, Burgundy, and Olive colorways. At first, this colorway seems rather new to Jordan Brand, but keep in mind that this combo of colors can also be seen on the 2005 Retro release of the Air Jordan X, which featured a White/Obsidian-Ice Blue colorway as well. Continue reading for some extra shots as well as a video and let us know if you’d purchase these if they released. via yungdrseuss.

Jordan Brand has been releasing sandals almost as long as the Jumpman has existed as a separate division of Nike Inc, so for us to flat-out state that these are the single best design they’ve come up with so far is something of which you’ll want to take notice. Check out the Air Jordan III Retro Slide in True Blue, a sandal that so perfectly mimics its sneaker inspiration that you might find yourself searching through the box for laces. You’re held in with a wide velcro strap on the forefoot, but even that element bears the AJ3′s signature plastic eyelets, and the sole is spot-on with its Elephant print and visible Air cushioning. Click through to get a better look, let us know how they compare to the ‘White Cement’ edition and look for these at select JB retailers like Extra Butter or get yours now on eBay.

One outta two ain’t bad, whether you’re talking about hitting shots from the field or winning a road game against your favored opponent in the Western Conference Finals. But when it comes to celebrating a major regular season award, one simply isn’t enough, so when his Thunder take to the Ford Center court in Game 3, Kevin Durant will break out the ‘Home’ edition of the Nike Zoom KD III ‘Scoring Title’ PE. These joints are white where the ‘Away’ pair was black, making the unique interlocking letter pattern on the side panels considerably more visible, which makes for an interesting foil against the forefoot Flywire panel. Click through to get a better look at a model we should see on Saturday night and stick with Sneaker News to see the Zoom KD III Scoring Title ‘Home’ PE in our NBA Feet feature.

Boing boing. At the turn of the century, Nike introduced Shox technology, which was as comfortable as it was gimmicky. Compared to sleek nature of Max Air, Shox was a turn in a completely opposite direction as Shox cushioning gave its shoes a completely futuristic, robotic appeal. While Shox is still prevalent in running quarters, it’s been slowly phased out of Basketball over the last few years thanks to the supreme comfort of Zoom Air and re-tooled basketball-specific Max Air. Nike Shox Basketball is about to make a big comeback with the Nike Hypershox, which features the newer Air-infused Shox pillars for cushioning and a Hyperfuse upper. The Hypershox is set for a debut later this year, but take a look at this detailed gallery of an upcoming Grey/Red/White colorway below and let us know what you think. via Marqueesole.

A lack of advancement in the field of time-travel technology won’t allow us to go back to the 90′s, but Nike is doing its part to relive its best decade by re-releasing some of our favorite silhouettes. In 2012, Nike has plans of retroing the Nike Air Diamond Turf II, the second model of Deion Sanders’ signature line. This preview of these three upcoming colorways show you the Grey/Freshwater colorway that we showed you earlier this week, a Black/White edition, and the most nostalgic of the bunch, the San Francisco 49ers colorway of white, black, and red with the gold mesh upper. Like the Air Diamond Turf retro releases of 2010, there won’t be any Deion Sanders-related insignia (he’s no longer a Nike athlete). Continue reading for another look and expect these to hit Nike Retro retailers this Spring 2012 season with a pricetag of $120. via CK.
