The Air Jordan 2.0′s retooled design on a classic silhouette, which gave it some much needed modern day performance enhancements, looks to be only the beginning.

Here is our first look at the Air Jordan 8.0 which are set to release in 2012. Another revamped original with modern day performance features could be, in my opinion, a great touch for some of the most beloved designs from the Air Jordan Legacy series. I for one would love to be able to play in the Air Jordan VIII, as well as many other early AJ’s, yet performance wise this wouldn’t be the best choice.

Let us know how you feel on the possibilities of playing in a classic Air Jordan with performance enhancements as well as let us know which Air Jordan you’d love to see get the point 0 treatment… AJ 3.0 or 4.0 anyone?

Other than music, Fat Joe is also known for his extensive Air Jordan collection. Not only does the rap mogul carry all kinds of rare heat and general release J’s, he also has a line of Air Jordan PEs, exclusive only to the man himself and his crew.  Today, we can take a quick look at an Air Jordan VIII (8) “Terror Squade” PE in Midnight Navy/Peapod – Orange Blaze that surfaced recently. This PE is probably a 1 of 1 piece of Rare Air that is kept deep in the Terror Squad sneaker archives. Thanks to MN for sharing.

NBA star Mike Bibby is a fellow “sneaker head” and a Jordan Brand player, so it would make sense that Bibby has his own Air Jordan PEs. This Air Jordan VIII low is a player exclusive for Mike Bibby, back when he was in playing in Sacramento. With an colorway identical to the Air Jordan VIII low retro ‘Iceberg’ that dropped back in 03, this PE features an all White leather upper with some Chrome accents. Bibby’s jersey number (10) appears on the straps and 1Z on the side of the shoe to represent his Team Dime Affiliation. Check out the detailed shots of this Air Jordan PE after the jump, and this shoe can be yours thanks to eBay seller abtmchan.

Seems like all the Air Jordans are going to have Pantone 248 make over, with the Air Jordan VIII, IX and X joining the collection. A Carolina Sky Blue nubuck upper with a White mid and bottom sole and White accent, lets not forget the Pantone 248 lasering on the upper. Check out the detail pics of the Air Jordan x Pantone 248 collection seen after the jump and let us know what you guys think about the collection. via. SC

We were shocked to see the Nike Air Jordan Fusion VIII in the iconic black/bright concord-aqua tone colorway, which took influence from the Air Jordan VIII Aquas. But, SneakerFiles has another exclusive surprise: the release of the Nike Air Jordan Fusion VIII (8) in the classic Bugs Bunny white/black-red colorway. This fusion features the Nike Air Force 1 midsole and outsole, with a full white leather upper sporting the characteristics of the Jordan 8′s. From the strap to the iconic heel panel, the Bugs Bunny 8′s are represented strong on these kicks. Stay tuned for more exclusive info for these babies.
