Jordan brand created 4 colorways as PEs for college and NBA teams: white/black, white/red, white/purple, and white/pine. They were not initially released with the other OG colorways, and after basketball season was over, Nike allocated leftover stock of those 4 colorways to Eastbay for distribution. It was a mildly limited release with not all sizes available (college/professional basketball players tend to have bigger feet). The fact that Eastbay was the only retailer to get these + the fact that pretty much no one liked XVs + the limited size run made publicly available makes these pretty rare but not too sought after.

UNCs were from the regular release. There was a 4th color though - I think it might have been purple.

Yeah... still not PEs though, in the sense that people use that term. ...Though that term has been so completely abused that it really doesn't mean anything anymore.

Shoes made available to the public via retail aren't really PEs, despite what they may say on the box or how they are marketed. Yes - that even goes for Sugar Ray and Q-Rich 8s from HOH, or Ray Allen 13s. Those were remakes of PEs.

Most of the Brons that people post aren't PEs either - at best, they are F/Fs.

Copeland's also had those Team Bank XV's in their clearance bins.

from what I've read up on them, these were PEs that were made in excess and eastbay sold em.

Guess I wasn't done for the month after all, but this last one was just a good deal.  These are made with really high quality materials, and were once a $250 shoe.  I got them for $98 shipped.

Nice man. you didn't pick up the hat?

Not of a fan of the CW for shoes. But at Nike not making enough pairs to go around if some of the money goes to a good cause. Seems like a lot of people wanted them

I didn't see the hat when I purchased. I'll probably buy the hat tomorrow or something when I go to buy the ligers. Can't wait to rock the kicks, hope a 12 aint small
