Jordan CP3.II - Summer ‘09

New Orleans Hornets point guard extraordinaire Chris Paul’s second signature shoe from Jordan Brand proves that Mike is not the only one that the Jordan design team goes all out for. Loaded with nice style touches, the CP3.II will expand its colorway roster with four new versions that will be hitting stores in May. Two black colorways and two white each possess subtle design differences other than color to give all four a style of their own. The Black/University Blue and Black/White/Metallic Gold versions both feature contrast stitching to match their respective accent colors. The two white pairs have a traditional basketball look, but have enough flavor to make them appear anything but ordinary. All four sneakers will hit Jordan accounts on May 1st. Be sure to check out some close-ups and release details after the jump. via Jordan-ugg.com.

Jordan 2.5 Team 5/8th - Summer ‘09

With many of the more hyped Jordan fusion models getting most of the attention, it seems that the Jordan 2.5 Team has quietly slipped under the radar. You can tell by its name and appearance that the shoe is a hybrid that combines the Air Jordan II and III into a single entity, this time with a 5/8th cut. Jordan Brand will be releasing six colorways for the 2.5 Team, with three dropping in April and three in June. The April releases will be the Black/University Blue, Black/Varsity Red and White/Black/Cement pairs. June will bring the White/Court Blue, White/Varsity Red and solid black versions. Keep your eyes out for all six at Jordan retailers in the coming months. More photos and release information after the jump. via Jordan-ugg.com.

Jordan Phly Legend - Summer ‘09

Jordan designs have always been known for taking sneakers into the future, but the Jordan Phly Legend has some old school appeal to it. Rather than continually moving forward, the Phly Legend has a casual classic feel, but still brings some Jordan mystique along for the ride. Jordan will be releasing four new colorways over the next couple of months, adding some nice style elements to the simple shoe. April will see the drop of a Cool Grey/Navy pair with perforations and some wild laces and also a Premium white on white pair with a woven upper and silver accents. Then in May, look for the basic Black/Laser Blue pair to drop alongside a Black/Chlorphyll colorway that uses elephant print on the toe and heel. Check out some closer looks and release info after the jump. via Jordan-ugg.com.

Converse Jack Purcell LTT - Perforated Patent Leather - Summer 2009

We’ve seen a bunch of new Jack Purcells lately and Barney’s did a pair of perforated patent leather Chuck Taylor All Stars this past year, so it’s not shocking to see Converse combine the two. The Converse Jack Purcell LTT appears here in black or white perfed patent leather, both with the signature white sole and toecap. The use of silver metal eyelets and eglets lend a nice finishing touch. Both pairs are expected to drop for Summer 2009, so stay tuned to Sneaker News and we’ll hit you up with the latest info as it’s available. via Jordan-ugg.com

Nike Air Tailwind ‘92 + Air Structure Triax - Spring/Summer ‘09

Earlier today, we previewed the latest Nike Twilight, and now we fittingly bring news of new colorways for two of the classic models that inspired it. The Nike Air Tailwind ‘92 and the Air Structure Triax have both made big comebacks over the last year and now they are back again as part of Nike’s Spring/Summer 2009 collection. The Air Structure Triax features a combination leather/mesh upper in off-white and aqua with black and magenta accents. The Air Tailwind ‘92 model also sports some vivid colors, splashing large sections of the shoe with bright blue and yellow atop the white base. Both pairs have the look of their era of origin, but will surely be right at home amongst today’s models. Expect these to hit select Nike accounts, including End, at the end of April. via Jordan-ugg.com.
