The Air Jordan VII wasn’t as well received as past Jordan models by collectors and fans when they first released, but despite the objections, colorways such as the ‘Bordeaux’ and ‘Hare’ became instant classics. The Air Jordan VII ‘Cardinal’ is scheduled for a June 18th release and during the 1991-92 season, the ‘Cardinal’ VII was Jordan’s sneaker of choice and because of its Chicago Bulls color scheme, it was a perfect match for the home and away uniforms. Check out the additional images from Nike Harajuku after the jump, and if you can’t wait until the June release, you can find some early pairs already on eBay.

The world was introduced to Nike Shox Basketball when Vince Carter jumped over and cleared the seven footer Frederic Weis, for a vicious dunk in what seemingly ended Weis’ NBA career at the 2000 Sydney Olympics. Carter continued to lead Shox Basketball with his own signature line, the Nike Shox VC, but now Nike Basketball is poised to revive Shox Basketball with the Nike Hypershox; a fusion of the upper and midsole of the Nike Hyperfuse 2011 with an Air Shox unit. A cool feature of this Black/Black colorway of the Hypershox is the metallic swoosh on the midsole that changes color when viewed at different angles. Check out the additional images after the jump and let us know what you think. via Kicks-Lab.

2011 thus far has been the year of the Air Jordan III with great releases like the White/Cement, Black History Month and upcoming releases like the ‘True Blue’ and Black/Cement III’s on the way. Another Air Jordan III that is slated to release this year is the AJ III ‘Stealth’. This rendition of the III features a colorway yet to be used on this classic model. Regardless of the colors used on an Air Jordan III, they always seem to be a must-have. Will the ‘Stealth’ Air Jordan III’s fall into that category? Check out the additional images below courtesy of AGS and if you can’t wait until the September 2011 release date, then grab your pair early from eBay.

From Kobe to J.R. Smith, the Nike Zoom Kobe VI took the NBA by storm this season. This latest Nike iD by Toronto Raptors swingman, DeMar DeRozan is similar to the pair he wore during the 2011 NBA Sprite Slam Dunk Contest. Red is featured throughout the upper and midsole with black on the Swoosh, outsole, inner lining and heel cup to add some contrast to the design. The inner tongue features the phrase ‘Comp10′ which is combination of DeRozan’s hometown of Compton and his number, 10, which is also seen on the heel. Check out additional images after the jump and let us know what you think about DeMar DeRozan’s latest Kobe VI iD. via unclesfoto.

Seeing Terrell Owens in an Air Jordan III player exclusive is nothing new to sneakerheads who watch NFL games. During the 2010-11 season, the Bengals’ wide receiver wore his player exclusive Cincinnati colorway on the way to catching for 983 yards and 9 TDs. While playing for the Dallas Cowboys, T.O. also got the PE treatment courtesy of Jordan Brand. This Air Jordan III cleat takes on the upper of the AJ3 with the obvious difference being the simplified midsole and cleated outsole. Navy blue elephant is featured along the toe and heel with the remainder of the upper consisting of white leather. The Jumpman, an element usually found on the heel of the shoe, is mysteriously absent from the cleats, but the clear Cowboys color scheme remains intact regardless. Check out additional images of Terrell Owens’ PE after the jump and try your luck at getting a pair in the auction from mandingo_of_sneakers on eBay.
