When the Nike Air Trainer 1 released back in 1987 it was a game changer.  By now you already know most of the stories surrounding the shoe’s legacy -epecially the stories involving John McEnroe, Andre Agassi and Bo Jackson-. But many don’t realize how many re-issues -or similar drops- there have been of this particular colorway over the past 35 years beginning way back in 1990.   By the year 2000 when – a long with the Scream Green Huarache- they re issued for a third time it seemed as though the love affair most mainstream buyers had for the shoe had faded as this shoe showed up a ..read more

When Jordan Brand dropped the XXXIV last year the overall consensus was this is a great looking basketball shoe that performed well.  The shoe was like nothing we had seen before and thats what most have come to expect from the Jordan flagship shoe. Having seen what they cooked up last year held high hope for what we would see this year but many instead were left scratching their head.
