The various Air Jordan XIV player exclusives floating around out there have had personal hits show up on a couple different sections of the sneaker. We’ve seen embroidered numbers up near the ankle and in the middle of the tongue, and we’ve also seen personalized logos for the top of the tongue. That detail points to the originally intended owner of these Air Jordan XIV Lows: Mike Bibby. The pair looks to be a relic from his Sacramento Kings days, although an exact production year is unknown thanks to the obscured inner tag. Get more on this Air Jordan XIV Low for Bibby below and then buy them from pmj_aka_heatbeast on eBay.

The Air Jordan IV “Marquette” is the latest of player exclusive pairs to hit for Jordan Brand’s NCAA schools. Following up on the Air Jordan IV “Oregon” designs, which were actually given to the football team at that Nike embroiled university, the “UNC” pair perhaps made a bit more sense. Furthering rewarding Team Jordan’s athletes on the collegiate level are these, which don’t have quite as many school emblems from what we can see, but still do justice to the Golden Eagles what with the special colorway. The same design may or may not have also been doled out to Cal players, which would explain the distinct lack of logos. See more on the Air Jordan IV “Marquette” PE after the jump and tell us where they rank in terms of college retros.

More Player Exclusives from the 2013 National High School Invitational tournament have surfaced – this time for Findlay Prep High School in the form of the Nike KD V. Featuring the school’s colors of navy, red, and white, this PE features the logo on ankle with a clean red/white gradient – a similar color composition seen in the Nike KD V “St. Benedict’s Prep”. It would be dope to see these school PEs release in stores as they did with other Nike Basketball shoes a few years ago, so check out the extra images below and let us know what you think of this colorway.

The First Round continued to extend with teams once up 3-0 and 3-1 unable to close out their respective match-ups, but who are we to complain? Extra basketball is always. As expected, some interesting sneaker sightings need to be reported, like J.R Smith’s Nike Air Trainer SC High “Auburn” and Durant wearing the Nike KD V Elite “Playoffs Home” that is set to drop on May 18th. Perhaps the best NBA Feet sighting of the NBA Playoffs goes to Jimmy Butler of the Chicago Bulls, who whipped out the adidas The Kobe in the White/Black colorway. We’ve got more NBA Feet below so take a look!

A couple of weeks ago we gave you a look at some teaser shots of a PE colorway of the Nike KD V made for St. Benedict’s Prep – one of the top High School-level squads in the nation. Featuring a maroon/grey colorway to match the school’s uniforms, this PE features the Gray Bees team mascot logo on the ankle point on the upper, with a maroon/grey gradient on the midsole hit with white speckles across from toe to heel. A release is unlikely considering the actual game already went down last month (and the KD line has graduated to the Elite ranks already), so check out a full shot below and let us know what you think of the colorway.

Although there was a released version of the Nike Air Max Hyperposite “Area 72″, there’s no doubt that the PE made for Western Conference All-Star LaMarcus Aldridge was far better! The dark upper exudes that deep space landscape with hints of the Area 72 graphics lining the collar of the shoe, with a sick planet-surface style of Swoosh detailing on the heel and toe. These are definitely one of the highlights of the 2013 All-Star Game footwear, so check out an additional shot of the shoes and LaMarcus wearing them in-game, and let us know if you think more Hyperposite colorways should hit stores.

Another look at this incredible Air Jordan IV Retro designed for the UNC Tar Heels arrives, with a close examination of the heels and tongue logo comprising the bulk if this latest update. The diamond argyle print in white, carolina blue, and navy adorns the heels as well as the midsoles and lining, while the foot-print logo replaces the “Flight” patch on the tongue that has been a staple on the Air Jordan IV since ’89. The question is – which Air Jordan IV college PE is the better on, UNC or Oregon? Check out the close-up shots of the Tar Heel detailing below and stay tuned for more updates on this great PE.

The 2013 NBA Playoffs continued with several First Round match-ups continuing toward a Game 7. One of the more competitive bouts has been between the Pacers and Hawks, with players from both teams coming through with some heat (DJ Augustin in the Air Jordan IV “Thunder”, Gerald Green in the Reebok Shaq Attaq, and David West in a Nike Hyperposite “Gradient” PE). Kevin Durant went for the sweep in the Nike KD V Elite, but Rich Harden kept his Rockets alive with the Nike Hyperfuse 2012 Low “Christmas” PE. There’s plenty more to see so check out this latest installment of NBA Feet tomorrow and stay tuned for more later this week.
