Ray Allen’s Air Jordan Retro Player Exclusives prove that he’s sneaker game is untouchable (no disrespect to any of the winners in our 2012 NBA Feet Awards). During last night’s crucial Game 5 match-up between the Boston Celtics and Philadelphia Sixers, Ray proved again that his PE game is one lock as he wore the Air Jordan 2012 in a sick White/Green PE, matching his Boston Home threads. Ray’s role has diminished considerably, but you can bet his clutch sharpshooting will be deciding moments for Game 6 and a possible Game 7, so check out Ray in his latest PE heat after the jump and we’ll keep you in tune with more NBA Feet action!

In 1997, when Jordan Brand officially became an entity independent of Nike, the first ever womens-exclusive Team Jordan model debuted. It was the perfect method of brand expansion as it tapped into the burgeoning WNBA, which had its inaugural season in 1997, and the growing awareness and popularity of women’s basketball as a whole thanks to superstars like Cynthia Cooper and Cheryl Swoopes. While there was no true model name for this shoe (simply dubbed ‘Womens Air Jordan), it was a highly popular model around the WNBA at the time (seen below in the in-game shot), with the male counterpart finding no shame in going 1.5 sizes to cop his own pair; it carried a sleek design with the Air Jordan XIII signature ‘dimples’ on the upper, and to this day remains one of the most unique and collectible Jordan models to date. It’s not often we get to see these fifteen-year-old Jordans, but here’s a look at a Girls size of this model below; take a look and don’t forget to place your bid on the listing from sneakah_king on eBay.

The only thing close to the joy of learning that a bunch of OG Air Jordan III colorways would be releasing in 2011 was learning that the shoes would be coming back better than ever thanks to the return of the original elephant print shoe box. So naturally, knowing that there will be a string of OG Air Jordan IV releases coming in 2012, there has been much speculation over whether or not the classic “cement” speckled box would be coming along for the ride. Finally, we get a look at what we were all hoping for, and aside from the switch from “Nike Air” to “Jumpman Air” branding that we saw with the III’s, things are looking to be on point. Now we can shift our attentions and imaginations back to what colorways may be coming inside these cardboard delights during the next year. We know that the White/Cement and Military Blues are on the way and can only assume that the Bred version will follow the lead of the Black/Cement Jordan III and drop next Black Friday, but we can only wonder what Jordan Brand will have up their sleeves for new color schemes for the beloved silhouette. via Air Randy
