According to MediaTakeout, Kanye West isn’t stopping at Nike – and isn’t stopping at Louis Vuitton. Kanye has his heart set at teaming up with Jordan Brand to add another notch to his designer repertoire and his fashion resume. MediaTakeout states:

“According to a pretty well placed source, Kanye is negotiating to design a limited edition pair of Nike Air Jordan’s. The insider claims that negotiations are still early, but that both sides are excited about working out a deal.”

One can only imagine what Kanye would have up his sleeve if this rumor does come to fruition. The possibilities are endless. Let’s see how this turns out.

The Jordan PHLY Legend has been claiming its spot as one of the more widely accepted sillouettes in the Jordan Brand arsenal. And this colorway is no exception. You can pick up a pair now at your local and/or online Jordan Brand retailer for about $95.

Dwayne Wade now on Jordan Brand – no more Converse
Jordan brand is now the official homie of Dwayne Wade. I’ve been waiting for this news for a long time. Its been officially announced – Dwayne Wade will now be a member of Nike’s Jordan Brand. This is the best news I’ve heard in a long time. What this means now though, is the upcoming Converse Wade V will most likely be cancelled. Wade now joins Chris Paul, Carmelo Anthony and Derek Jeter under the Jordan brand umbrella. Read the entire story below…

Wade changes brand to build his own
NBA scoring champion Dwyane Wade is changing shoes, making the switch from Converse to Nike’s Jordan Brand.

Nike announced Friday that the star Miami Heat guard will now be representing the Jumpman label, joining the likes of Chris Paul, Carmelo Anthony and Derek Jeter.

Wade had three years remaining on his deal with Converse, which had him as the centerpiece of its attempt to reinvigorate the company’s once-thriving basketball business. That relationship seemed rocky when the 2006 NBA Finals MVP rarely wore his most recently released signature shoe, the “Wade 4,” last season, favoring an older model instead.

The Jordan Brand is a 12-year-old division of Nike, which also owns Converse.

“I grew up on the south side of Chicago idolizing Michael Jordan and have worked hard to achieve the same success that he’s had on the court,” Wade said. “I have enormous respect for this brand.”
Wade told The Associated Press that he inquired about switching allegiances from Converse to Jordan’s brand before the 2008 Beijing Olympics, doing so, he said, out of concern over Converse’s long-term viability in the basketball marketplace.

The 2008 request was declined, but earlier this month, Wade said he was “almost positive” a switch would happen.

“I didn’t want to be in the Converse brand anymore because it seemed like they didn’t know what to do with me,” Wade told the AP.

Coming off a year where the Heat went from 15 to 43 wins and Wade won his first scoring title, Nike apparently agreed that the switch now made sense.

“I’m thrilled to have Dwyane Wade join the Team Jordan family,” Michael Jordan said.
The deal was finalized Thursday afternoon. Complete terms were not released, although it was believed that the new deal, at minimum, matches the remaining three years on the Converse contract.

It’s a significant add to Wade’s endorsement résumé which already includes deals with T-Mobile and Gatorade.

“I want to go global,” said Wade, who is planning a trip to China later this summer for a series of business meetings and appearances. “It’s something I feel like I have to do. I want to continue to build my brand.”

Wade made a cryptic reference to the move on his Twitter feed late Thursday night, saying he had “good news coming…..stay tuned.” Dozens of people quickly starting pleading for more information, even Wimbledon finalist Andy Roddick, who inquired via Twitter if that was Wade’s way of saying he had agreed to a contract extension with the Heat.

The move wasn’t totally unexpected: As recently as last week, Wade was at a charity event with children in Miami wearing apparel featuring the Jumpman logo, prompting one of the kids he was meeting with to ask if he still was aligned with Converse.

Wade donned a blue pair of Converse sneakers at the Zo’s Summer Groove game he co-hosted Sunday with Alonzo Mourning.

That’ll likely be his last appearance in that brand. A “Wade 5″ shoe was to be released by Converse in the coming weeks, although it now seems likely that orders from retailers for that model will be canceled.

Shoe Gallery Miami’s Jordans XX3 Finale Release
Photos and Words by David “DRO” Rosario (www.davidrosario.com)

The red searchlights spun around the Downtown Miami skyline and could be seen from afar on the evening of December 23, 2008. The elusive “Finale” (final) colorway of the Jordan XX3’s were on their way to being released at Shoe Gallery. Since news broke about the release, a small group of dedicated sneakerheads made way to Shoe Gallery almost 11 days before the actual release. They set up shop for a camp-out until the sneakers were released on December 23rd. 22 other Jordan brand retailers around the country joined Shoe Gallery in releasing the final colorway of the XX3’s. A total of 529 pairs (23 per store) were sold worldwide, making them ultra-exclusive.

Shoe Gallery always goes far and beyond to treat their dedicated customers right and this release was no exception of that. Red searchlights greeted them and made Shoe Gallery the eye of Downtown Miami on the night before Christmas Eve.

Everyone who got their pair was grateful to finally be able to hold their prize and get to finally…well, go home. The first person in line was proud to be number “one” and Shoe Gallery gave him a few additional pieces of gear on-the-house in a show of their appreciation. It was funny that throughout the 11 days of the camp-out, a few of the people in line worked out a system were they would alternate going home and then come back in line and switch and etc. A great show of dedication mixed with a bit of maturity. With that, see ya next year with the Jordans 2009 coming soon!!
