It’s only right, right? With all the Yeezy madness and the success of recent re-retros of retro+ colorways, the red suede pair from the Air Jordan 5 “Toro Bravo” Pack has to be a favorite for a second run. The shoes are still a standout at the summits, in the streets, or in the pages of Celebrity Sneaker Stalker or Kicks On Court. Is there any doubt that these wouldn’t be a hit as a solo release? We sure don’t think so. Bring ‘em back! Kicks: Air Jordan 5 “Toro Bravo” Red/BlackReleased: 2009 Article source: Nick Kicks

However, Nick Young proved this season that no matter what he says, the one they call Swaggy P

DeMar DeRozan’s Case for 2013 Kicks On Court Champion
We knew something had changed with DeMar DeRozan when he laced up the Air Jordan 11 Low White/Red in the Raptors’ first preseason game this year.

Attention-worthy player exclusives and NikeiD versions of the Kobes IV-VII graced DeMar DeRozan’s feet throughout his first three seasons in the league. Yet, this season, DeMar predetermined to switch his on-court rotation up – at least for the beginning of the year. “I usually wear Kobes for the entire season, but I wanted to start off the season with something different in the process of me waiting on the Kobe 8s to come in,” said DeRozan. “I just tried to go with old retro Jordans that

Golden State Warrior Draymond Green’s Nike LeBron X iD Collection
Moments before last night’s Game 1 of the Warriors vs. Spurs series, Draymond Green displayed three fourths of his Nike LeBron X iD collection for us to see.
