You won’t find much contention with the claim that the Jekyll and Hyde pairs of the Jordan CP3.V are the hands down most sought after for this entry in Chris Paul’s Jordan Brand lineup. You’ll recall that on their original release date three weeks ago the official word was that they wouldn’t be available at Nike’s online hub. The tides are turning now, as both Jekyll and Hyde colors are available now in a full size run on Nikestore. Quit waiting and go grab a pair! Or check eBay to see what deals can be had.

This past month has seen quite a few changes with the way Nike launches big ticket items, presumably a response to the growing problems of crowd control and massive lines forming at retail spots nearly every weekend. Their latest move seems to aim to take some of the stress off their online retail spot, as this weekend’s anticipated release of the Air Jordan IV ‘Cavs’ will not be available via NikeStore online. Also unavailable online will be the four Jordan CP3.V styles launching tomorrow, May 9th. Let us know in the comments what you think of the switch up and remember to make it out to a physical location for your best chance at any of these styles.

If you’ve been skipping over the Jordan CP3.V for the the duration of its shot lifespan now is the time to spot, with the sneaker about ready to drop in two of the sickest off-court colorways the model has gotten yet. The two get more or less the same palette, alternating between them with the more muted ‘Good’ pair and the wild style ‘Evil’ pair (also known as Jekyll and Hide). Hit the gallery below for an updated look at the Jordan CP3.V’s shown here and remember that they’ll arrive in stores on May 9th.

Over the past few seasons Jordan Brand has made much about tapping into two different kinds of players, as evidenced by the separate insole set ups on both the Air Jordan 2011 and the Air Jordan 2012. This new duo of colorways for the Jordan CP3.V seems to be aiming for that approach all in one model, speaking to those looking for something louder with the crimson colored ‘Hyde’ pair and also catering to the cool headed with the wolf grey ‘Jekyll’. As it turns out the two from the Jekyll and Hyde pack are actually just around the corner, releasing a week from today on Wednesday, May 9th. Hit the jump for the official images of the Jordan CP3.V ‘Jekyll and Hyde’ and let us know which ones you’re copping.
