The Olympics are coming up at the end of this month and in true retail fashion, there will be a ton of goods released to commemorate the Games.

If you are a sneaker lover, the Olympic Games are a treasure trove of release dates for new kicks - probably the most notable pair being the Air Jordan VI "Olympic."

Originally released in limited quantities in 2001, the Air Jordan Olympic will be seeing a re-release this Saturday, July 7th. With the exception of the midsole being blue instead of white, the shoe is exactly like the original, and for that, you can expect to see them fly off the shelves this Saturday.

If you can't get your hands on a pair but you still want your kicks to show your national pride, there will be many other shoes coming out in the red/white and blue colorway just for the Summer 2012 Olympics.

Nike has long been the dominant shoe maker for just about every holiday and the Olympics are no different. However, other brands have joined the bandwagon as well. 

Finding a pair of kicks to support your nation "going for the gold" should not be hard at all, but we have listed some of our favorites from the USA collection for this summer's Olympic Games in the gallery above.
