Last April, Michael Jordan sat courtside as his Charlotte Bobcats were swept out of the playoffs by the Miami Heat. On his feet, an unreleased premium Air Jordan 1 that we've heard little about since. That changes today with an image of three different premium make-ups hitting the web.

Jordan's exotic black-based pair is joined by pairs in cream and tan. Each shoe sports a premium leather upper, rumored 14k gold branding, metal eyelets, lace deubres and contrasting white soles.

There's no release date for this trio at the moment, but the word is that they'll hit sometime this year.
