Air Jordan XX3 (23) Premier Black Varsity Red

The time as finally come for the Air Jordan XX3 (23) to take its seat amongst some of the greatest sneakers of all time.

Jordan Brand began releasing the Air Jordan XX3 on January 25, 2009 with the extremely limited and sought after Premier White / Titanium – University Blue colorway which can now be bought for upwards of $1,500. In order to end the installment of Air Jordan 23 releases, Jordan Brand will once again release a colorway which will only be available at 23 stores across the U.S. and each store will only have 23 pairs. Jordan Brand’s official website, Air Jordan Flight Club, is also set to have an extremely limited amount of pairs available on the release date, December 23, 2008.

This brings the grand total to only 529 pairs of the Air Jordan XX3 (23) Premier – Black / Varsity Red being released. Featuring the black and varsity red colorway to commemorate Jordan’s success with the Chicago Bulls, this pair is a great way to say farewell to the year long installment of Air Jordan XX3 releases. Getting your hands on a pair of these will most definitely prove to be a difficult task, but we’re here to help. Below, you can check out the official list of the 23 stores that will be receiving the Air Jordan XX3 (23) Premier – Black / Varsity Red. If you’re interested, we would advise you to find your way to one of the twenty-three locations as soon as possible because we guarantee you that there will be long lines and other sneakerheads wanting these as much as you do.

  1. They look great… i just don't like the red collar around the ankle. In fact the red totally takes over the sneaker… but if the collar wasn't red too then maybe this would be the best release ever in the 23. Right now its stands at 5th.

    But that's just me.

  2. Love it or hate it these shoes are a must have for collectors, theres no denying that. going to the stores is out of the question and I have a pair available right now sz 10.5 .. yea I know its fucked up but when you know people at JB it just is what it is. I also will have a pair on my website too. im thinking of doing a raffle and its only 2.30 to enter and if your name is picked guess what you win the shoes – free shipping also. the raffle will run for 2 weeks. I have too many goid damn people emailing me and I will be generating entry numbers when notified. — and yes on your feelt the fuckin shoes are unbeleivable. good luck J heads – make sure you get a pair !! please dont sleep on these youll regret it !!!

  3. these clowns are gonna be real disappointed when their shoes won't sell at their ridiculously marked up price, there aren't that many people who can pay that much, especially this time of year…you can see from the fact that all these titaniums are still available out there at those prices and they came out 11 months ago…ha, and all these "Pre-Sale Auctions" have sold nothing for their sellers, CHRISTMAS IS NO TIME TO TAKE ADVANTAKE OF PEOPLE, Shame on YOU…

  4. america is built on capitalism from cell phones, electronics, clothes and even sneakers. we all pay upmarked prices regardless . sneakers in general cost from 8.00 – 25.00 to be manufactured in other countries and we pay 100.00 + on average. it is what it is.. if you have the money you cop them , if not then continue to complain. Duvenyle your an idiot , christmas time has always been the perfect time to take advantage of people – retailers been doing it forever .. hello?! where have you been hibernating the last 40 years??

  5. i take it you're a reseller Jesse, just shoot yourself, bet you voted for Bush & McCain too, didn't you, no one needs a "history lesson" on our economy, it seems to have gotten us in a real nice spot nowadays huh…i'm one of only roughly 1,000 who actually have a real pair of Titaniums, and I certainly didn't have to pay $1500+ for 'em, won't pay that for these Breds either…the resell won't be there in the coming years, just the intial hype drives them up and then they go splat just like the Titaniums did…those ads out there for $2000+ have been there for months…and will stay there until they wise up, like you need to talking out your asss about what sneakers cost in other countries, alot more people need to be paid on sneakers besides the 'sweatshops' employed to manufacture them…been hibernating the last 40 years? you're a prime example of what christmas has turned into, a BIG merchandise JOKE, not the Family Holiday it should be…

  6. ill try to get them. if i do succeed, i will put on ebay. shoes are to wear, not for collecting.

  7. Wouldn't it be cool if Jordan brand focused more on making the true "Air Jordan" like these readily available, and focused less on making silly team and lifestyle shoes wih the jumpman slapped upon them?

    The pricetag ($185, $190, whatever) should be the limiting factor.

    THERE IS NO NEED FOR JORDAN BRAND TO MAKE THEIR SHOES SO LIMITED!!!!!!!!!!!

    Merry Christmas everyone!

  8. IF ANYBODY IS SELLING THE 10&13 COUNTDOWN PACK FOR A RESONABLE PRICE PLEASE LET ME KNOW BY THE WAY THESE J'S ARE FUCKING FRESH I THINK I'M GETTING ME A PAIR

  9. I have never bought Air Jordans before because of the difficulty of actually buying a pair and I have only recently found out about all the models. I am currently living in the UK but I would really like to buy these. I have tried joining the Air Jordan Flight Club but I have not received a reply from texting the number given. If anyone could help me out here, I would like to buy a pair of these at retail price @ size 9.5 (US) or if anybody can help me access the Flight Club website then please let me know @ shahmizzle@gmail.com. Thank you very much.

  10. sounds like Flight Club is cutting off the invites cuz so many requested already…they don't want the site to crash…hope you got invited! i sure hope i can snatch a pair at 230 cuz this resale shit is gonna murk me…gotta complete the set of 12 though…if not, anyone want these Titaniums, sz 7.5, #17 of 529…?

  11. i think im gonna pass, im happy with my white/infrared 6s i just coppedd

    dont need these

    dont want these

    wont get these

  12. What is this Aficionado place in Chicago? I went to that address and it was Synergy!!! Was that some time of sent off? Is anybody else getting them in the Chi besides NikeTown and House of Hoops because they both already put all of them on reserve.

  13. The only reason why these Js selling at $230 is because Nike knows theres gonna always be people dumb enough to buy it. I swear, next they gonna release some limited "#45" edition jordans thats gonna sell for $450……

    Fuck you JB!!

  14. i know there very limited, but does ne one know what time jordanflightclub.com is going to have them

  15. after readin all (most) of da comments, i dnt think ima cop em…in a way, yea i dig what yall sayin bout limited releases wit jordan but at the same time i understand why people b dropn 2-3 hundred on shoes; cuz we can…i wanted to get dese but i aint make it to the store quick enough for the 11/12 package n had to drop 500 to get em…so ohh well fuk it…

  16. lol . guess what! ven if your not out side waiting in a line in front of a store , you sure as hell will be waiting online on the computer because they may not hit the site till 10:00 – 4:00 pm est . so clear your schedule and stay in front of your PC. when you blink you may miss out. and no they arent telling what time it could be later in the evening .. so just call out and chill in front of your computer

  17. ^ just join it takes like 5 min

    and i hav a guess as 2 wat time they go up…

    the eminem 2s didn go up until 7pm est, so mayb the 23s rnt goin up till later as well

  18. why people always askin for invites all u gotta do is go to the dam website. Flight Club aint some undercover club thats real exclusive i went to the web site and had 2 invites in my inbox in 2 minutes. Wise up people. And if u pay 1000-2000 for some dam shoes u got issues. I seen a dude on ebay he went and bought 12 11/12 jordan packs and had them all in one picture for his auctions for 569 a peice. I hate people like this tryin to get over some kids coulda bought those who really wanted them this shit is gettin stupid. I bought two packs on eastbay and only sold 1 pair of XIIs just so i could buy the black/red 6 rings. The shoe game gettin real f****d up. Kinda makes me sad its come to all this premiere exclusive crap. Just put the dam shoes out there for the people man all the dam people and let everyone get paid and look good. Im so salty im bout to walk around bare foot…but not till my 11/12 packs are worn out. holla

  19. and what dam store lets one person buy 12 packs of the 11/12 jordans…..let me know so i can burn it down.

  20. lol damn.. but these sneaks will be real sweet .. and QPRECISE you bastard !! you werent lieng you have a pair all ready you sneaky idiot !!! how did you get them!!?? thats some BS .. you have them on your myspace as a main pic with you standing in your house with them then took it down !!! i hate you !!!

  21. thank GOD now i knw exactly what time theyr comin out online!!! dnt bother askin coz i aint tellin!

  22. don't you guys get it JB want to play the game like drug. Give you a tease and you are hooked. if everyone can get a pair of J anytime. then there is no fun. they are so smart……….

  23. Yeah they did 529 times two last time. Maybe 1000 pairs US only would've been great for everybody. But bring out a better shoes Columbia XI or Cool Grey, Space Jams, Infared VI, sumthin to heal the wounds of all the impossibe shoes. I mean people were at shiekh on friday. Srry I have a life Worked 3 days n sold some 11/12 pack made at least 1100. So i can't complain

  24. I HEARD THE STAFF AT SHIEKHS TUCKED AWAY 9 PAIRS DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THERE IS ANY TRUTH TO THIS

  25. I heard it was going to be 2:30 pacific time so how did it change so much everyone is making up their own shit

  26. theres too many chumps on here that dont even deserve to get these shoes…. probably wouldnt even want them if they werent limited to 529 prs

  27. That includes u 2 coochie…I mean gucci u want em like everybody else. I'm good I got better things to do and better shoes to try and get rather than chase a dream. I'm cool wit my 11/12 packs I already spent to much money not to mention I'm in Ohio u know we ain't gettin none.

  28. I just want to know are people really buying these at the resale price, I know a lot people who collect sneakers may spend a 1000 on a pair but over 2500. If you got money like that to waist. Then more power to you. I love sneakers but it's not that serious. To all the resellers keep doing what you doin. If someone is stupid enough to pay then why not. I personally buy to wear nothing more just a something to brag about. I don't understand these shoes ain't even close to being the best ones. The titans ain't selling like that.

  29. haha th staff at SHIEKHS IS DOWN TO 14 PAIRS BEFORE THE DOORS EVEN OPEN !!! LOL !! THOSE PEOPLE IN THE LINE ESPECIALLY NUMBER 15 – 23 ARE GONNA BE PISSED !! BAD BUSINESS ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY HAVING PEOPLE SITTING OUT THERE A FEW DAYS. ALOT OF STORES ARE FLIPPING AND DOING A RAFFLE ON THE CAMPERS TOO !! GONNA BE SOME SURPRISED PEOPLE WHEN THE DOORS OPEN FOR THESE

  30. I was number 23 in line, but after finding out they are only selling 15-18 pairs at my store, I got pissed and left!! But on a good note. I ended up buying some Bred 1's with strap off the shoe rack for only $70!! They may not be as limited as the 23's, but the 1's made my day!! Especially since I thought they sold out of every pair in my city….

  31. so 23 pairs on flightclub? wow trying to buy the eminems which at 313 pairs on flightclub was hard but 23 is frickin impossible.

  32. no one in their right mind sells these for 300 unless they're FAKE !!! gets ta steppin bootleg boy…why don't they screen these fake posters…

  33. I'm pretty mad that I can't get to the store on release day. I doubt I'll get any in a fourteen for less than five bills.

  34. how they gon change the list from the Titaniums !?! We had the tites in STL and don't get the breds..? wtf, gimme a break…ya makin it real hard to like your company's release procedures Mike…i'm guessing the worldwide release didn't go well with the titaniums so they didn't do the whole 529 outside USA with these breds ???

  35. I think every shoe that has ever come out should be use to wear. I love every jordan shoe ever execept da 15's and i know my history on all of them. People who buy shoes just to resell them, are just killing da shoe game for real people like me who actually are sneaker heads!!!!!!!!!!! But like yall are saying if someone wants to pay that much for a shoe than what can we sneaker heads do, its part of da game. Im happy with my "defining moments package", 11/12's, and all of my OG's and retro 11's, 6's, sad to say that some of yall can't even tell da difference from an OG and a retro air jordan. but oh well, I will try to get these in airjordanflightclub.com if possible. YALL REAL SNEAKER HEADS STAY UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  36. So they release at 8:23PST according to the Nike Customer Service rep. So 10:23 Central, 11:23 Eastern. I really hope those who get them online wear em, other wise youre doing what Koopa and alot of other people are saying, killing something you claim you love. But how can you love something you're not willing to wear but rather just try and make a profit off of. Sure the money is nice but think about when you first started buying shoes, I can be you 9/10 times it was not for the purpose of resale.

  37. I don't like to hate on people, but fuck all da "greedy resellers" i could understand $1000 but $3000, I'm a true jordan fan, also own lots of vintage kicks, know all websites who sell authentic shoes, and even they are not as greedy like some of yall!!!!!!!!

  38. 1 PAIR DOWN WOOOO .. MAN 1 TO GO, I MAY KEEP EM THE SNEAKS ARE UNBELIEVABLE IST FUNNY HOW SOME PEEPS WERE IN LINE AND I WALKED TO THE FRONT AND TOOK EM FROM MY FRIEND WHO HAD GOT EM FOR ME. PEOPLE WERE LOOKING AT ME LIKE WOW.

  39. all these ebays ads out there will still be there tomorrow !!! ahahaha, and the next day…they really think people are gonna pay around $3,000 for these! hilarious, it's never gonna happen…look how long the titaniums have been out there at $2,000+, and they're wanting even more for these and they don't look as good to alot of people…if they were gonna sell, they woulda sold out on ebay already…there is not that type of demand for em, maybe up to $1,000, that's about it from me…

  40. YEA MAYBE MID 1,400 ANY MORE THEN THAT IS A BIT CRAZY. IM GONNA WEAR MINE SCREW RE-SELLING I DONT HAVE TROUBLE FINANCIALLY

  41. man if i got them, im not sure what i would do. i really luv the xx3's they looks so nice to me and i have the old love and gold stealths. but to potentially make some nice change, that would be hard to pass up. but yeah anything being sold for over 1500 will is just plain sad to me. even that much money is pushing it

  42. yea man , the longer i look at these the more i want em . i have the allstars too but i like black better

  43. yo…….if u kno the time..shut up..cuz u only making it harder for urself to get them…if 2many log in at once…gonna mess up your own chance…so sssssshhhhhhhhh……..dammit…stop snitchin

  44. Yeah im good good with my motorsports nd tha stealths most ppl only goinh to get them to resell them. i got my xi xii pack too so fuck yall im out til that blk red ones drop jan. 31 holla bitches lol

  45. ill give 900 for a pair of 10-11 dont even think 2000-3000 ha ha ha you can keep posted da for 2 yrs on e bay no one in their fight mind would spend 3000 for them shoes. Honesty never worn a fake pair of J's in my life and Iam 32 got the 1st pair to ever come out. But Ive seen a real pair and a fake pair and those mofos look exactly the same, so be careful, not hard to get a tag and A wooden shoe horn. Hella people going to get ripped off, so sad. After the spizike Im done out of the game for ever, the way jb handles things these days is just wrong, back in the day u had to save up could take months but you could always go and cop a pair. DOWN WITH NIKE, IM NOT TAKEN ANY MORE CRAP, AND LIKE 2 PAC SAID FOLLOW ME BOUT TO GO COP SOME PUMPS IF PEOPLE STOP CUMN OVER EVER PAIR THEY CAN BE PUT BACK IN THEIR PLACE

  46. good luck with those King…hope that $130 scuff mark makes your day…lmfao…you could've waited until after the initial hype and snatch a pair at alot more reasonable price, when these clowns realize that they're way overpricing their kicks…

  47. these shoes aint all that anyway i dont want a shoe thats only hype driven. If nike wasn't nike they woulda sold these everywhere and tried to get paid. Nice to so someone aint hurting for cash. But they forget everyone else is. They obviously dont give a f***. Im starting to see nike in a new light there true colors.

  48. i feel ya Swerv, in this economy, you'd think the higher ups would throw their weight around a little better to ensure a positive image was being made of the company as a whole…they are definetly taking a step back in my eyes too

  49. Honestly im taking a break on shoes these are my last pair and to be honest these arent that great it's just it's final shoe they will retro it in a few years.

  50. HONESTLY; IM NOT RESELLING THESE. THEYRE GOING ON DISPLAY BESIDE MY TITANIUMS. I WORE THE TITANIUMS LIKE 10 TIMES BUT I DO NOT PLAN TO WEAR THESE AT ALL

  51. Did these come out on flight club yet. I have been looking all day and having seen anything. Will someone let me know. Thanks

  52. ON THE JORDAN FLIGHT CLUB THEY COME OUT AT 1130!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  53. damnnnn fuck… i got hit wit da cannon mann.. i had them shits in the cart and paying.. and when i got to the end it said they were solddd…. dammmnnn

  54. I feel ya man. I also had them shits in my cart and the fucking site ****** me over. Gave me some damn website error shit and I got ****** over. Hella pissed, I fucking had them too!

  55. look at that **** hella post for this shit on ebay nobody wants these damn show they want the money i hope nobody buys this **** from the resellers…

  56. BOYCOTT EBAY JORDAN RAPIST RESELLERS! DO NOT BUY THIS JORDAN 23 BREDS FR ANY OF THIS BITCHES!!!!

  57. not only jb and resellers and ebay boycott stores like shiekh where they set aside 9 pairs for employees then then employees try to sell to customers for like 600 hundred or stores like moes that hold 8 and try to get 400 a piece for the rest

  58. REAL TALK, WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE TO COP, BUT REAL SNEAKERS HEADS WONT PAY 1500 FOR THOSE UGLY KICKS WASTE OF MONEY

  59. I WOULD PAY 500 FOR THEM, THATS MORE THAN DOUBLE THEIR PROFIT, iAM NOT PAYN THEM FOR SITN IN THE RAIN FOR DAYS, THATS ON THEM, DONT BUY NOT IMPRESSION ANYONE WITH THOSE, LOOK FAKE SO HELL SUCKAS

  60. I had them in my cart too and was already checking out, I even put in all my credit card info and when I clicked on place order it said “there was an error going to the order commit page” or some crap like that. what the hell, I had them in my cart they shouldve been mine, shouldn’t they be held for you if they’re in UR cart. That pissed me off! So close

  61. I despise buying a pair of shoes this limited with no intention of actually wearing them, but if you made $1500+ just for sitting in front of a store i gotta give you props, all resellers make yo paper any way you can!

  62. nothing wrong with making money, but those fools are selling the xx3 premiers for way to cheap, anything under 3500 is CRAZY ONLY 529 IN THE WORLD HELLO
