Spots all across the country held events celebrating the launch of the Air Jordan 11 “Concord” today, but only the new LEED Platinum Niketown in Portland, Oregon had the shoe’s famed designer, Tinker Hatfield, signing boxes and greeting fans. Hundreds of sneakerheads flooded downtown Portland yesterday to get a wristband for the event, which promised a pair of Concords and a chance to meet Tinker. This morning at 7AM, small groups of Jordan faithful were then allowed into the store to cop their pairs and get the box signed by the man responsible for designing MJ’s most iconic shoes. Check out our photos of the event below, including an inside look at Nike’s newest, most environmentally friendly store at the heart of the Rose City.

The spirit of Christmas has filled the shelves as Jordan Brand generously unveils three of the most- anticipated colorways of the season with silhouettes from three of the biggest names in the industry – Carmelo Anthony, Dwyane Wade, and Chris Paul. This trio pack is dubbed as the brand’s “Christmas” collection, loaded with all three signature sneakers in nothing but red-green combination only.

Is there any distinction between the three? Let us first consider the Carmelo Anthony which appears in mostly green Flywire-fused upper with red full length Max Air unit plus red-orange tongue, lace, and Jumpman logo. Chris Paul is showcasing a mostly red upper with hints of green on the tongue and ankle including the midsole. At final point, the Dwayne Wade pair flaunts an all-red upper with side panel perforations plus green lace. One thing is for sure among these three – they all have white outer soles.

Which pair do you think truly signifies Christmas?

Just want to buy a pair of Nike Zoom Rookie LWP – Dynamic Blue/Wolf Grey right now? Nike Zoom Rookie LWP – Dynamic Blue/Wolf Grey.

No doubt that the next Penny Hardaway edition will be much anticipated like most of the sneakers in Nike holiday lineup. The latest release will showcase a combination of dynamic blue and wolf grey, that both work for a perfect blend with no other tone interruptions.

Just plainly said, the Nike Zoom Rookie LWP is an ideal middle ground between the legendary Orlando colorways and the variety of grey renderings that have been so famous either as stand-alone or a complementing shade. This time, dynamic blue takes over the base in Foamposite shell while the grey performs well as far as overlays and mesh inserts are concerned. Grey plates with detailed half-punched holes are also showing up on the quarter and side panels as interesting accent. The shoe lace even shows up in favor with the mostly grey appearance, and lastly the bottom flaunts an icy outsole.

Huge credits to AGS for the great images.
