During the All-Star Weekend in Houston, TX, Jordan Brand displayed a series of Air Jordan XX8 concepts behind glass showcases to boast the incredible design ideas of the XX8 – a shoe once thought to be “too plain” thanks to the monotone shroud upper. Those notions were quickly erased as Jordan featured several graphic prints on the upper, like this interesting composition of what appeared to be fragments of origami. Turns out the Air Jordan XX8 “Fractal Elephant Print” as Jordan Brand calls it were made specially for the 2013 Jordan Brand Classic, which goes down on April 13th at the Barclays Center. Will we see “Fractal Elephant Print” on Air Jordan Retros – particularly the Air Jordan III? We’ll have more event info for you later today so take a look below and stay tuned to Sneaker News for more updates.

In case you hadn’t noticed, Russell Westbrook is very much the flag bearer for the Air Jordan XX8 as far as NBA players go. His tenure in the sneakers of course includes plenty of player exclusive pairs, a group which is put on full display here. Shown are four separate sneakers that only Wesbtrook is privy to so far, including a couple straightforward orange and blue affairs, one with a jumbo ‘Why Not’ hit on the outer shroud, and a white based perforated pair. See all of the Oklahoma City Thunder styled Air Jordan XX8 player exclusives for Westbrook after the jump and let us know if you think any of these deserve to make it to the retail realm.

There’s at least one more Air Jordan XX8 style wearing the wavy camo pattern in the form of the Air Jordan XX8 ‘Joker’ shown here. As you can see, the inner bootie goes for the purple and green look where the outside sports a clean black and white. Apparently a handful of sneaker stores across the nation had this Air Jordan XX8 colorway on shelves for a little bit, but they’ve since been pulled for unknown reasons and a release at this point looks iffy. See more on the Air Jordan XX8 ‘Joker’ after the jump and then take a look at what’s out there for this rare pair on eBay.
