Air Jordan Cement Box Returns in 2011

So it appears as if somethings might be on the rise yet again for Jordan Brand. It has been one of the most talked about things when it comes to Jordan's over the last few years....when will we see a different box? Well, for those OG heads out there that go way back and even lovers of Jordans current day will respect this blast from the past.

Below are early shots of a possible remake of the early 90's box tops that Jordan's use to come packaged in. Expect to see a little twist from Jordan with some of the 2011 releases. We personally can't wait until they start doing this! So for all of you all that paid a higher premium just to get the shoes 2-3months earlier just might be kickin yourself....or maybe not. Let us know.

Autopsy of the Nike Dunk Pro SB

This video hit the web almost a week ago and is currently catching a ton of attention. Nike SB line is really stepping their quality control game up for 2011. Even thought the only changes we've seen so far is adding zoom air and a cushioned tongue, Nike we are sure is going to have some tricks up their sleeves. Check out the video below and peep the pictures of the new Dunk Pro that will release sometime in January of 2011. We will keep the streets posted.

Air Jordan 13 “Playoffs”

So this is one Jordan out of the 13 series that we are really looking forward to them bringing back. They still have a tentative date for sometime in Feb of 2011 but could change at any time. This particular color Jordan broke out during the 1998 All Star Game and rocked a low top version of the shoe in certain games throughout the Bulls playoff run that year as well. Retail will be $160 once it drops but we will keep you posted with detailed shots once we get our hands on a pair early.

Air Jordan Melo M7 – Blackout

The Melo has started to hit stores over these last couple weeks. As they start to bring out additional colors in this years model it is really starting to grow on us here @SSD. The "Blackout" edition reminds us of this stealth like materials used like something out of a S.W.A.T. type team. Expect these to hit locations in early Dec for around $130. Keep it locked once we have more of a solid release date for you all.





Air Jordan XIII ‘Altitude’ & Air Jordan 1 Anodized Release Date Change

It seems as if there is a new Jordan releasing every week, and actually when you think about it there is. The news just broke earlier today that the new release date for the Retro 13 Altitudes and Anodized Green Retro 1's will now release on Dec 11th. So not only will these now drop on the same day, remember the doernbecher collection is launching the same day! Better save up that cheese people. December is going to be an expensive month! We keep trying to tell you all.

Check with your local retailers because quite a few people will be doing midnight releases on Thanksgiving evening (night before Black Friday)These will be a general release so sizes will be widely available even if you are not able to make it out in time.

Nike WMNS LunarMax+ – Holiday 2010 Colorways

Ladies look alive within the next week or so. The Lunar shoes have been making a huge bang in the workout scene as of late. No matter if you are actually working out or just looking for some comfortable runners, these Lunar Max+ are money in our opinion. If you notice Nike took the same lunar outsole and added the visible air unit to the heel for additional cushion and support. Retail is about $120 and can be found on Nike.com or finishline.com.

Nike LeBron 8 ‘Veterans Day’

If you were watching the Heat get smoked by Boston last night then you might not have caught what Lebron was rocking on his feet. These "Veterans Day" exclusives that apparently will release just before Thanksgiving, were worn by Lebron to give honor to those that served in the service. We have seen pictures of these earlier on and actually look pretty cool up close. Expect these to be limited and retail will also be $160.



Air Jordan Retro VII (7) BIN23 New Pics and US Release Info

Retail again will be that $175 range but you can expect them to pop up online after they release for 3times it's worth.

Expect these to hit in a few other colors before the year is up but the black/white/silver joints pictured below will hit accounts sometime this week. Nike retro is killing it this year.

Converse Chuck Taylor Low Duck Boot

Look who is stepping into the "Duck Boot" look. Even though Converse decided to go with a low top version the inspiration behind these are taking from hunting duck boots. 2 piece suede upper and thick ridged outsole on these make for a pretty interesting looking shoe. These have already dropped this past week at you select Converse accounts. Thought?
