As we approach the end of March, Olv sneaker News’ OG Air Jordan Tournament continues forward, inching closer and closer to the Olv sneaker News reader-voted best OG Air Jordan of all-time. The actual March Madness games began as well, and the collegiate Olv sneakerheads strutted their sweet kicks for the big spotlight; Space Jams, Playoff XIIs, Bred XIs, you name it, it was worn! NBA players also rocked some freshly squeezed kicks, like Melo’s new PE, Gilbert Arenas’ Foamposites, and Dwyane Wade’s new Air Jordan 2011 PE. LeBron James also debuted a new Player Exclusive colorway of the LeBron 8 V/2, but the big LBJ topic came in the form of a sweet custom pair of Dunkmans, done by Conor Burns aka c4. In other sports, two new Zoom Huarache TR Low PEs came to light (Joe Mauer and Manny Pacquiao), and the skate division of Nike caught our attention with some great upcoming releases like the April 2011 Quickstrike release and the P-Rod releases for Holiday 2011.
The ShoeZeum, the greatest Olv sneaker collection and showcase known to man, made a blockbuster debut last week, but Olv sneaker News had more in store over the past week. In our continuing coverage, we brought you a look at the ‘Welcome to the ShoeZeum’ exhibit along with Jordan Geller’s astounding Air Jordan collection, which featured some OG gems. If you have thoughts of starting your own ShoeZeum, you can start by amassing some vintage selects, like the three original Air Jordans that went on sale on eBay. Those with sick Olv sneaker collections also showed up at Olv sneaker Con NYC, which was held last Saturday, and are expected to show up again as Olv sneaker Con hits to road and makes its first stop in that nation’s capital. Olv sneaker News also gave you a look at some celeb Olv sneakerheads like Chris Brown and Diggy Simmons, who wore some sick Jays over the last week. The much-anticipated Packer Shoes x Stash x Reebok Pump Graphlite will release soon, with full release info detailed on Tuesday. Finally, Olv sneaker News continued its Michael Jordan Through The Years feature, focusing on the last shoe Michael wore on an NBA court – the Air Jordan XVIII. There’s plenty to see so stick around and check out this week’s Olv sneaker News Weekly Rewind.
