Early this week we posted a interview from Gentry Humphrey at Kickz101, and during the interview he confirmed that Jordan Brand will release a special Air Jordan skate shoe.

The new Air Jordan Skate sneaker will be called the Flipside, and will take characteristics from the Air Jordan 3. As well, Jordan Brand went to Stevie Williams for some advice, and talked with other skaters about joining. Via nsb.

  2. JB just putting their hands in everything. probably why ryan sheckler was wearing JB stuff on his last show. I don't think real skaters will appreciate it but depending on what they look like ill cop em

  3. if they are designed using silhouettes of the IIIs, then it's going to be really difficult to go wrong. the IIIs are the arguably the the best jordan's to come out, imo. cant wait to see what they look like

  8. i called this like 3 months ago. i think they should use the air jordan 1-5s because in skating u need a flat bottom shoe. They couldnt have picked a better skater than stevie williams. he will definitely represent the jordan brand right.

  9. keep it original, and what Jordan brand was made for basketball, anything else makes it a reflection on what 23 years of classic stuff was all about.

    P.S – JB dont need their hands in everything!!!

  10. even tho skaters used to wear jordans for their grip back then, this seems like a pretty bad idea. I have no problems with JB but like other people said, this seems kind of desperate.

  14. their’s money in the sk8 industry nowadaze…..pretty sure JB can see that…and since their already talkin with stevie williams who is mad respected in the sk8 industry/community…i say why not…..nike sb struck gold bein down with p-rod(and vice-versa)…everyone hated on nike sk8 shoes until p-rod wore them…..JB’s probably hoping stevie can have the same effect with their sk8(inspired,lol)shoes……..1
