Michael Jordan announced yesterday that he’d requested a name change for the Charlotte Bobcats, a rebranding that would have them become the Charlotte Hornets once again as of the 2014-15 NBA season. Getting a head start on the campaign, there’s already a “Back the Buzz” movement going on out in Charlotte. Said movement has some complimentary Jordan Brand gear up for grabs, as ticket buyers can get their hands on the “Buzz City” jacket pictured here. Hit up Back the Buzz for more info and let us know how you’re feeling about the name change.

Jordan Brand’s various signature sneakers didn’t really get a chance to participate in this year’s “Area 72″ theme. Shown here is what almost looks like an outtake from that set, a special version of the Jordan CP3.VI AE dressed up in some “Supernova” graphics. The shoe appears to be nearing the end of its life-cycle but maybe, just maybe, they’ll see a retail release in the future in this awesome colorway. Regardless, make sure you hit the gallery below for the full photos of this crazy Jordan CP3.VI AE style.

Gathered here is an incredible original package that contains all the items sent out upon initial joining, including a membership card, a t-shirt, a letter from MJ, and more. Get a look at this incredible Air Jordan Flight Club find in better detail right after the jump.

Check out the sneakers in all their blue-mudguard glory after the jump and tell us if you’d be stoked about this sort of colorway if it ever released at retail.

The Air Jordan XX8 “Why Not”, originally thought to be a player exclusive for one Russell Westbrook, just got a little bit more exciting. It turns out the sneakers will come in a special box, one that wears that Westbrook slogan via an all over print-taking things much further than its singular appearance across the Air Jordan XX8 inside. Continue reading for the full shot of the Air Jordan XX8 “Why Not” packaging and remember that these will be in stores come June 8th.

Yet another unreleased version of the Air Jordan 1 “J2K” has popped up. This time it appears to be an outtake from last year’s retro release, sporting the same blacked out triangular base. The difference is that these go quite a bit blacker, getting rid of the extra bits of red tossed in via the laces, tongue tag, outsole, and “Wings” logo of the released version. Get a better look after the jump and then see how much this Air Jordan 1 sample went for from jordunk23 on eBay.

Jay-Z is one of the rappers out there that’s actually old enough to remember when the Air Jordan VIII “Bugs” first came around. Granted, we can’t really comment on how into sneakers he was at the time so who knows if he ever laced up an OG pair.
