Air Jordan Campus Chukka   Fall 2009 Preview

The Jordan Campus Chukka is an interesting new offering created by Jordan Brand in hopes of capturing a piece of the lifestyle sneaker market. By now, you’ve probably already seen the Campus Chukka in Black and Light Chocolate colorways. The Black pair was already dropped in very limited quantities at UNDFTD, but now it will be available as a wider release later this fall. Joining the Black/White model will be another new colorway that also keeps things classy and conservative. The shoe features a Sail upper with touches of Khaki and Olive on the midsole and outsole. The Sail Chukka will be available some time in August and the Black pair should also be hitting select retailers later this fall. Via Jumpman23.

Air Jordan Schoolin   Fall 2009 Preview

You may have already seen the Ray Allen PE edition of the Jordan Schoolin’ and now there are two new colorways set to drop in the very near future. Both versions stick to simple traditional Jordan color schemes, helping them to fit right in with the rest of the Jordan basketball arsenal. One pair sports a Black on Black upper with a Stealth outsole and some subtle Varsity Red accents. The other new Jordan Schoolin’ splits the upper between White and Black with some touches of Stealth on the heel, lining and Jumpman logo. Both colorways are slated to be released this month, so we’ll be sure to keep you posted on the exact dates. You can get a closer look at both versions of the Jordan Schoolin’ after the jump.

Air Jordan Phly Legend Premier   Team Red   Sail   September 09

Jordan Brand already has the Campus Chukka, but with this latest edition of the Phly Legend, JB is adding a real schoolyard vibe.  Pictured above and after the jump is a detailed look at the burgendy woolen Premier edition Phly Legend we caught a glimpse of yesterday.  Gone is the classic Air Jordan ‘Wings’ logo that typically graces the Phly Legend’s side panels.  It’s been replaced by an ‘AJ’ embroidery that gives this shoe the overall impression of a varsity letter jacket.  We expect these in September, so stick with Sneaker News for updates.  via FlightClub

Michael Jordan x Gatorade Limited Edition Collection

Jordan Brand has the tendency to release limited runs in sets of 23 or multiples thereof.  This amazing collection we’re featuring here doesn’t have any Jordan Brand-ing, but this might satisfy those of you who are eagerly anticipating the rumoured ‘Gatorade’ Air Jordan VISole Collector recently received number 4 in a set of only 23 of these crazy packages from ‘G’.  Inside is a special edition Gatorade-emblazoned Rubbermaid cooler, complete with MJ hang tags.

Opening the cooler reveals two molded foam layers supporting a total of six special edition 32 ouncers.  Each features something about Mike’s basketball or business careers, with #5 depicting his heroic ‘Flu Game’ performance and a Sharpeed signature.  Last but not least is a Sony eBook reader that came preloaded with a special message from MJ himself.  With super-limited collections like these, you’ve got no chance of getting one (except maybe getting lucky on the ‘bay), so enjoy the photos after the jump and let us know which is your favourite flavor.

Air Jordan 1 Retro High   01 Retro vs. 09 DMP   Side by Side Comparison

A lot of people are excited about the return of the beloved black/red colorway of the Air Jordan 1 High from the upcoming 60+ Bulls vs. Celtics DMP pack, but be aware that there will be some slight differences from the Retro version that dropped in 2001. For one thing, the shade of red used on the new version will be slightly different and is also a smoother type of leather. The shoe also seems to have been thinned down a little bit from the original and will come with both red and black laces instead of only black. Some other modifications are a bigger Wings logo on the ankle, and as you probably expected, the Jumpman logo has been added to the heel and will replace the Nike Air logo that was on the tongue label. You can check out some more side by side comparison shots after the jump and remember that these kicks will drop as part of the Bulls/Celtics DMP Pack that drops on July 11th. Via NT.

Jordan Hallowed Ground   White   Black   Red   November 09

Back in May, we gave you a look at the black colorway of the Jordan Hallowed Ground and now we bring you some nice pics of the white/black/red version. The shoe seems to draw some inspiration from elements of the Air Jordan IX and X, giving it a somewhat familiar look that still manages to forge its own identity. On this pair, you will find a white leather upper with some sections of patent and some interesting stitching patterns. Additional areas of black can be found around the bottom edge and heel of the upper as well as on the midsole. To finish them off in classic Jordan fashion, some minimal red accents are also thrown into the mix. As an added touch, the Jordan logo on the tongue can be read the same whether upside-down or rightside-up. Like the black pair, these kicks will be a Foot Locker exclusive and will be hitting stores at the end of the year. You can check out some more great shots of the Jordan Hallowed Ground after the jump. Via FootLockerUnlocked.

Jordan Pro Classic   Fall 2009 Preview

Like the Phly Legend, the Pro Classic is another Jordan model that keeps it nice and simple with a more casual lifestyle design. The shoe will be coming back in five new colorways over the next few months with a variety of colors and materials to choose from. Three versions of the Pro Classic all use the same color blocking with the only difference being the accent colors. All three feature a black on black base with either Varsity Red, Royal and Maize providing the highlights on each respective model. The other two new Pro Classic models feature a little more imagination. Both sport a healthy dose of Elephant print on various sections, one using a Military Blue upper and the other with a brown/rust color scheme. You can get a better look at all five colorways after the jump along with the release info for each. Via Jumpman23.
