First Look At The Air Jordan 11 Blackout (Prom Night)

Earlier this week we found out that the Air Jordan 11 Blackout/Prom Night is now expected to release some time in late May. While the release date has not been confirmed just yet, today we get our very first look at the shoe courtesy of these leaked images you see above.

This new colorway of the Air Jordan 11 gets the pitch black treatment as the upper comes done in suede/nubuck instead of the traditional cordura mesh. The OG patent leather mudguard, laces, branding on the ankle and heel, laces, inner liner, and midsole have also been blacked out. An icy blue translucent outsole completes the look on this Air Jordan 11 that is expected to drop on May 26th for a retail price of $220.

A First Look At The Air Jordan 1 Shattered Backboard Satin

Just yesterday we let you know that a Air Jordan 1 Shattered Backboard Satin release was in the works. A rendering of the shoe was shared, but no actual images of the shoe were provided, until now. That said, here’s a first look at what is believed to be the Air Jordan 1 Shattered Backboard Satin.

Right off the bat, the first thing you notice is that unlike the Royal and Bred Satin releases, this Satin version does NOT come dressed in all-satin. Instead, Jordan Brand opts to add leather to the design of the shoe. The shoe’s first image shows that the satin version of the Shattered Backboard comes in the same color blocking as the OG SBB, the only difference is that the Orange parts of the shoe (toe and collar) opts for a Satin finish. Another welcomed change to the shoe is the decision to add a thick embroidered Swoosh on the side paneling that’s very similar to the women’s Air Jordan 1s from the ?Season of Her? collection.

Another important detail on this release: It’s said to be a women’s exclusive!

No word yet on when these will drop or for how much, but as soon as we have that info, we will share that with you too. Thoughts?
