adidas is getting a bit a ‘fruity’ with their newest colorways of the Forum Mid and the Forum Low. For this release, the adidas Forum Mid is decked out in a black and green upper meant to represent the outside of a watermelon. Along with the multicolored upper comes a white midsole and red accents to spruce up the colorway a little. The adidas Forum Low is featured in a pumpkin colorway with a tonal orange upper accented by a white midsole and pink stripes. Both pairs are part of adidas Consortium’s latest releases and are now available at select retailers including Solebox.

Earlier today, we showcased the Air Jordan 2009 (2K9) – All Star Game – Ray Allen Player Exclusive (PE) and now we are getting a first look at an Air Jordan 2009 PE made for Joe Johnson. As most of us know by now, Johnson will be representing the Atlanta Hawks and Team Jordan in the NBA 2009 All Star Game and Jordan Brand has made this PE in recognition of JJ’s accomplishment. This pair features a relatively simple upper composed of white leather, white satin, a navy blue midsole, and university blue accents. This Joe Johnson Air Jordan 2009 Player Exclusive is not yet scheduled for release, but don’t be surprised if it drops in limited numbers in the upcoming weeks.

With the Air Jordan 2009 S23 releasing a little while ago, we are now getting a first look at an Air Jordan 2009 made exclusively for Ray Allen to rock while he participates in the NBA 2009 All-Star Game. This is the first AJ 2K9 to feature an upper composed of more than two colors and it looks quite promising that future colorways will definitely make some sneakerheads change their opinions of this model. Yielding a predominately white leather upper with navy blue satin and a university blue trim, this pair nicely matches with the jerseys of the Eastern Conference NBA All-Stars. As it is with all current colorways of the Air Jordan 2009, this pair comes with a blown-glass midsole which gives the sneaker a very clean and unique look. There is currently no information indicating that this pair will be made available to the public, but stay tuned for updates.

As time goes on, more and more Air Jordan player exclusives are created. Though most are designed for NBA players, there are also a handful of player exclusives made for those partaking in Michael Jordan’s second favorite sport, baseball. These two pairs shown above are Air Jordan IVs made exclusively Andruw Jones, the former center fielder of the Atlanta Braves. Both pairs feature black bases, the traditional Andrew Jones baseball insignia stitched into the heel, and spikes on the sole. The first pair comes with red wingtips, blue inner liner, a red heel tab, and a blue and white midsole. The latter of the two pairs features a black base with red accents and a white midsole. Both pairs were made exclusively for Andruw Jones, and will not be released in the future. Via NT.

Most Air Jordan Player Exclusives are made for professional sports athletes, but this Air Jordan V (5) Retro PE is made for a different type of player. Mike Phillips, an extraordinary saxophonist, is the only non athlete in Team Jordan and this pair was made exclusively for him. Being a part of Team Jordan definitely has its perks and having a player exclusive made for you is one of them. This PE is very similar to the Air Jordan 5 (V) Retro Black/Metallic Silver-Red which released in 2007 and the only notable difference between the two pairs is the lack of the number 23 on the player exclusive. Replacing the “23″ on the rear of the sneaker is a red saxophone with the letters M and P around it. As it is with most player exclusives, the closest you will get is probably checking out the pictures after the ‘jump.’ Via Kenlu.

With the Air Jordan Retro I (1) High Strap – A Tribe Called Quest dropping only a little while ago, we are now getting a first look at an Air Jordan PHLY High with the same treatment as the aforementioned AJ1. Featuring a black upper with green and red accents reminiscent of the A Tribe Called Quest’s cover art from the Midnight Marauders album, this pair yields an interesting and unique colorway that not all are fond of. This pair also includes red inner lining, and a green and red stripe on the midsole. Aside from the red and green elements of this sneaker, it has a black leather base with black laces. Though the release date for this Air Jordan PHLY High – A Tribe Called Quest is unknown, we suspect it to drop in the upcoming months as a limited release. Via NT.
