October is here and that can only mean two things: the start of the NBA season and the start of the signature shoe season! That’s right, October is one of the most exciting months of the year as we’ve waited all summer long to find out what the NBA’s best will be rocking on court when the season begins. Today, we’ll take a look at Clippers and Jordan brand star Chris Paul’s newest signature kicks, the CP3.VII. Drawing inspiration from East LA and the 80s era that CP3 grew up in, his seventh signature shoe pays homage with a lead colorway that combines a mix of white, black, purple and green. Designed for the speed of Paul, the Jordan CP3.VII features Nike Zoom technology, dynamic Flywire and a herringbone pattern on the outsole for excellent multidirectional traction for his aggressive style of play. Switching from Podulon to Podulite, the Jordan CP3.VII is engineered to provide responsive cushioning for one of the games most unpredictable point guards. Ultra-lightweight Flywire technology is customizable through the laces and wraps the midfoot and arch for an adaptive, glove-like fit. Perforations throughout the leather or synthetic upper (depending on the colorway) provide excellent ventilation.
Over the weekend we saw the Court Purple “Bel Air” colorway drop and now tomorrow, Wednesday, October 9th the White “Bel Air” will drop at House of Hoops by Foot Locker stores and Footlocker.com (starting at 8am EDT) for $125.
