15 Sneakers We’re Most Thankful For Returning in ‘09

The Air Jordan 12 Retro White/Red is arguably the most sought-after Jordan release not named the “Space Jam” (Speaking of…keep on clicking). This is one of those shoes where one may remember certain instances in Jordan’s career while he was wearing these. Originally releasing in 1997, Jordan lead the Bulls to their fifth championship while wearing this sneaker. This is one of two sneaker on our list that will release later this year.

    honorable mention are the 95′s…at times they just push new C/W with this shoe that are kinda over done or just “meh those are ahight”…dont get me wrong its one of the most comfortable shoes out…i think they should slow down on some of the releases of this show…

  • my name sucks

    heard the new skechers are dropping soon.

    and some new airwalks. f*ck jordans. shoes are hella played. shaboobabalaboopy

  • DEADSTOCK

    I didn’t get a retro card with my rising suns..i thought those were the first pair to deem the return of the RC

  • jihod

    Not only did the sole get pulled from the rising suns but they pulled the retro card as well lol

  • R E E

    i can do without all these shoes. I can un-DS my Space Jams from 01 and be GOOOOOOOOOD.
    And to the folks saying GUCCIs should be on this list…
    Could you please read the TITLE:

    Not 15 ‘cuz there wasn’t much, but I was happy to see, Air Trainer III’s in the Ginger (not Med. Ball) c/w and the Air Trainer SC’s in the OG c/w, never thought I’d ever see it happen.

  • Janitor

    What a year! My five:
    1. Space Jams (pre-ordered!)
    2. Jordan 12 white/red (tryin’ to lock that one down)
    3. Penny 2 Atlantics: damn you for being a quickstrike! ‘Settled’ for the black/white/royals Penny 2s
    4. Jordan TB 3s: got mine! Oh Canada!
    5. Air Max 95: waiting to hit clearance, will pick up the freshwaters
    Honourable mention: Jordan 1 purple metallics. Waiting to arrive from Hong Kong.
    Was never a fan of foams (too bulky. to me flightposites are the real ‘eggplants’)

    2010 has some great (Jordan) stuff coming up too: powder blue 9s, white/red 6s…there goes my paycheck!
