Old and New: Air Jordan 2.5 Team White/Varsity Red/Cement Grey

Old and New: Air Jordan 2.5 Team White/Varsity Red/Cement Grey

Jordan Brand has profited heavily off of decimals, as the Beaverton-based Nike subsidiary has combined Michael Jordan’s signature shoes to create updated performance packages. Earlier this month, the company released the 2.5 Mid, a Shelleyian combination of the Air Jordan II and Air Jordan III. Several Jumpman sponsored hoopers have worn the shoe on-court, including Chris Paul, Ray Allen, Gerald Wallace, and Michael Finley. The team white/varsity red/cement grey/black version of the Air Jordan 2.5 is scheduled to release on January 10, 2009, but pairs have arrived on eBay already.

Release Date: 01/10/2009
Name: Jordan 2.5 Mid Team
Style #: 331987-161
Colorway: White/varsity Red-Cement Grey-Black
Price: $130

Nike Terminator High Safari

This Nike High Terminator safari is a model meant for Spring 2009. It has Safari patterns for the entire shoe. This new sneaker is sold now at Leaders 1354.

The toe box starts with large circles of the Safari print. The pebbles are in a darker shade of grey with the background in light grey. The mudguard surrounding this toe box uses the opposite; the pebbles of the Safari print are in light grey, with the background in a darker grey. The panels holding the shoe lace holes are made of the same pattern as this mudguard’s design. The plain grey shoe lace complements the Safari print panels.

The midsection has black pebbles on a dark grey background. This is the dark colored Safari print on this shoe and the contrast is striking. The black Nike Swoosh makes a clear statement on the Safari print. The mudguard at the heel repeats the same pattern of the mudguard for the toe box. The Nike logo is proudly embroidered on the Safari print.

The midsole below the toe box has additional “star” shaped treads. After the load of Safari prints, the midsole is plain grey. The outsole is black. This Terminator is a master piece in the use of Safari prints.

Nike Womens Air Force 1 – Varsity Maize

Nike Womens Air Force 1 - Varsity Maize - #1

For the ladies looking to add to their Air Force 1 collection, 2009 is shaping up to be a good year to do just that. Here’s yet another Nike Air Force 1 for women – this time in yellow. Expect the shoes to hit stores in the United States in the final week of January.

The colorway of these kicks features varsity maize and white. While the majority of the shoe is yellow maize, while the white swoosh, lining and outsole stand out in nice contrast. The maize is used in different textures of the shoe, including smooth leather and textured patent, which keeps the overall look from being too bland. These sneakers are set to release in the US on January 24th. Via Sneaker News.
