We know Jordan Brand has some intriguing retro releases in store for us such as the “Cement” Air Jordan 4 and the “Playoffs” Air Jordan 12, but what will be the surprise release from JB this year? In 2011, the “Black Flip” Air Jordan 3 was undoubtedly one of, if not the most shocking release from Jordan Brand. Chicago Bulls guard Richard Hamilton is obviously a big fan of the luxurious “Black Flip” 3s. Our Kicks On Court column spotted the veteran guard wearing this shoe on his way to joining the 15,000-point club. Did you purchase or pass on the “Black Flip” 3s this past December? View these kicks plus more, worn by Kevin Durant, Monta Ellis, Jordan Crawford and others, below.
