Dwyane Wade, Carmelo Anthony, Chris Paul – they’ll be busy on the 26th of February, because they’re representing their respective Conferences in the 2012 NBA All-Star Game. Jordan Brand’s Big Three has a copious amount of All-Star appearance under its collective belt, and for this upcoming occasion, they’ll be rocking some new PE colorways of their signature shoes. Starting with the Eastern stars, Dwyane Wade will wear a sick White/Royal/Navy colorway of the Jordan Fly Wade 2 and Carmelo Anthony will rock a similar colorway of the Jordan Melo M8 with a jaw-dropping navy-blue elephant print, while the West’s best point guard will rock the Red/White colorway seen in our Jordan CP3.V Media Launch coverage from last month. Which of the three do you like best? You can see these in-game on February 26th, or cop your own on February 23rd when all three will hit select Jordan Brand retailers, so take a look below and let us know what you think.

The Nike Air Flight One remained quietly in the Nike Basketball archives since 1995, until in 2011, it manifested itself in the Nike Zoom Rookie LWP – a hybrid model containing the physical and spiritual aspects of the Nike Air Flight One, Air Foamposite One, and Air Go LWP. For the 2012 NBA All-Star Game, Nike will introduce the classic model as part of the Nike Sportswear Space Exploration Collection – a special glow-in-the-dark edition inspired by intergalactic themes. Release alongside that high-energy rendition is the original colorway of the Air Flight One, donned in a White/Blue/Black make-up reminiscent of Penny Hardaway’s Orlando Magic uniforms and coinciding with the destination city of this year’s All-Star Game festivities.

There’s no doubt that Derrick Rose will represent the Eastern Conference All-Stars as a starter in the upcoming 2012 NBA All-Star Game, but what will he be wearing? Here’s a look at the blazing hot adidas adiZero Rose 2.5 in the ‘All-Star’ variety, inspired by the ‘sunshine state’ of Florida; adidas designed the shoes as well as the uniforms as a celebratory gesture to the 20th Anniversary of the NBA All-Star Game being held in Orlando, and we all know Florida is the state for oranges! The glowing orange colorway should give Rose and the East squad a boost to perhaps avenge their loss in 2011. Check out the detailed images below and expect these to hit adidas Basketball retailers on February 23rd at $110.
