The Jordan Classic 23 came onto the scene as one of the earlier lifestyle releases that borrowed many of the signature elements of an Air Jordan Legacy classic, but just like most of the others that came between then and the still-enduring CMFT series, these got the axe somewhere along the way. It looks like we’ll be seeing new pairs coming up in the next few months, though, as the tag on this sample pair reveals a summer 2012 scheduled release. This new Classic 23 AC CNVS built in Military Blue canvas, though there’s still a cupsole on the bottom of these instead of the autoclaved/vulcanized bottoms the name would suggest. These also appear to be rocking more of an Air Jordan 2011 Warrior Print than the traditional Elephant, which is more faithfully reproduced as part of the traction pattern. Let us know what you think of this Air Jordan III-inspired design when you click through for more images and stick with Sneaker News for updates on their release this summer. via Pyrophilly
