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.

As has been the custom as of late, the Air Jordan XX8 will eventually transition into the Air Jordan XX8 Lite, a sneaker set to shave some height off the extended shroud design of this year’s player shoe. Shown here are the first few shots of the Air Jordan XX8 Lite, which appears to get rid of the zip up option in favor of a more straightforward mid-cut sneaker. See the full shots of the camo laden Air Jordan XX8 Lite after the jump and stay tuned to find out the latest release information.

Get a look at the clip, which features plenty of Air Jordan gear and a look at a few upcoming Air Jordan XX8 colorways, right after the jump and tell us if you approve.

Enjoy this thorough recap of the All-Star footage below and let us know which pair you like best!

In comparison to last year’s lackluster Air Jordan 2012, the Air Jordan XX8 has exploded out of the gate – with much of the credit going to OKC Thunder star Russell Westbrook. As the “chosen one” to carry on the torch of the Air Jordan legacy, Westbrook has elevated his game to new heights while keeping us interested with his sporadic Air Jordan XX8 on-feet sightings. Now that the cat’s out of the bag, should we expect to see Mr. Why Not? wear the XX8 on a nightly basis? That could be the case, as we saw him wear the Air Jordan XX8 in a ‘Black/Orange’ PE during last night’s match-up against the Houston Rockets (he didn’t have much traveling to do). These are indeed slightly different from the pair we should you last night as the upper shroud is a tonal black rather than a carbon-fiber seen in the pair last night. We’ve got a detailed gallery below so take a look and stay tuned to Sneaker News for more NBA Feet sightings!
