Release Reminder: Retro VIII "Pea-Pod" LS


Last weekend fulfilled many Jordanhead’s appetites with the long awaited arrival of the Air Jordan 8 Aqua’s. Unlike before, Jordan Brand is taking a new approach to release dates spacing out Lifestyle and General Releases so that no one has to plunk down nearly $300 just to stay up with the game.

This week is the release of an interesting color up of the Jordan 8. While Navy and Orange together create a nice and simple colorway, the addition of “pea pod” ruins the party for many. The shoes do feature a soft nubuck upper, contrast stitching, as well as orange piping edging the leather; a handful of little details many sneaker enthusiasts appreciate.

Thankfully, since the shoes are a Lifestyle release, Jordan Brand has put together some of its better clothes to hook up with the kicks than normal. Matching hoodies, T’s, and accessories will make that pea pod color look more intentional. Oh yeah, they release tomorrow. Try your luck on Eastbay or Foot Locker so you can sleep in.
