It’s fair to say Nike brought the business this year for Black History Month. The Nike SB, Nike Basketball, Nike Sportswear and Jordan franchises all dropped commemorative kicks, but the extra premium goods have been saved for last. This new Jumpman23 custom pack by Just Don takes deluxe to another plane, with legit python snakeskin slathering the Swoosh and heel strap of the immortal first Jordan silhouette and the bill of a Jordan snapback. The AJ1 is also decked out in nubuck and features a swag of dainty details to put under the microscope, including the African print we’ve seen in the other Nike BHM releases. This is a limited edition custom job, with just 37 pairs available in varying sizes. The online auction, which benefits the Big Brothers Big Sisters charity, can be found here.
First spotted last week during NBA All-Star Weekend, today brings another look at what appears to be an Air Jordan XX8 (28) “Yellow Camo” PE for none other than Jordan Brand’s All-Star athlete, Maya Moore.

Although Carmelo Anthony only spent one year at Syracuse University before heading off to the NBA in 2003, he certainly made an impact during his stay with the Orangemen as he helped lead the team to their one and only NCAA Championship title, amongst other honors he’d achieved in a single season.
During halftime of yesterday’s Syracuse vs. Georgetown game, Anthony had his jersey #15 retired amongst the thousands in attendance who applauded his efforts. In addition to the brief ceremony, several Syracuse players were spotted in a special edition Jordan Melo M9 “Syracuse” colorway. The signature kicks take on a vibrant metallic orange and white color make up with a patent leather toe box, navy accents throughout, and white signature branding for a clean finish.
Check out a few images from the event yesterday and keep it locked right here to Sneaker Files for more on the Jordan Melo M9 “Syracuse”.
