Shoe Debut: Jordan XX2, D-Wade Converse, Nike AF25

Nike's Jordan Brand is rolling out the XX2 in stores Feb. 17 in celebration of 22 years of the Air Jordan shoe line. Also coming out about the same time are the Dwyane Wade Converse 2.0 (unrelated to Web 2.0) and the Nike AF25 Premium, setting up a three-horse race for hoopsters' attention and dollars.

Some of the XX2 shoes are already showing up on eBay, selling for an average price of $173 since Feb. 1, while the D-Wade (pictured) and Nike AF25s shoes have yet to appear on the site. To see the XX2 commercial spot, see the link below. Incidentally, this time last year, a full set all 21 previous Air Jordans, signed by Michael Jordan himself no less, went for $425,000.
