Chris Paul Goes Back-to-Back in Jordan XX3 PE’s
Posted by Matt Halfhill | Nov 23, 2008 Friday evening, Chris Paul and the New Orleans Hornets returned to their old, temporary home of Oklahoma City to face off for the first time against the OKC Thunder. Oklahoma City was in fact where Chris Paul played his first NBA game after being drafted by the Hurricane Katrina-displaced Hornets.
While Chris Paul’s next signature shoe, the CP3 II does not release until next spring, his shoes have been anything but shabby. For Friday nights game, Paul wore an “away” Black/University Blue colorway of the Air Jordan XX3 in a commanding victory over the Thunder. The following evening, Chris and company took on the Thunder in New Orleans where Paul wore a “home” White/University Blue Jordan XX3 Player Exclusive. Get a good look at both pairs after the jump. The season is just under a month in. Is it safe to say that between the 6 Rings and the XX3s that CP3 has had the best PE’s so far? UPDATE: A pair of the Away colorway has been posted on eBay for the benefit of the Boy’s and Girl’s Club of Oklahoma County. Thanks Sneaker News. |

CP3 doing it really nice color way they should release these kicks in theses colors like they did with the Melo 12 pack and the melo 2’s. Chhris Paul Deserves a special pack for what he has done in the playoffs n over seas with the Redemption Team.

The limited XX3’s are ugly. The black ones shown here aren’t much better.
I don’t like the look of suede on this shoe.

THOSE BLACK ONES I THINK BLOW AWAY THE THREE COLORWAYS THAT ARE COMING OUT THIS MONTH. IT EVEN BLOWS AWAY THAT SUPER LIMITED BLACK AND RED THAT’S LIMITED TO 529 PAIRS. THAT XX3 OF CHRIS PAUL’S A DEFINITE NUMERO UNO ON MY LIST…
