Judging by the placement of the lace holes, the shoe appears to be an Air Jordan 1 Mid. With that being said, here’s a first look at the Air Jordan 1 Mid Metallic Silver.

No word yet on when/if these will drop but I can already tell that the number one complaint on this shoe is going to be why they weren’t Highs. Regardless, it’s a dope color scheme on a Mid or High. A White leather takes care of the base, while the Metallic Silver hits can be found on the Nike Swoosh, Wings branding and ankle region. A White sole unit and White laces complete the look. Would you like to see these released even if they end up being Mid? Stay tuned as more info is sure to follow.

March Madness is now down to just the Sweet 16, and both UNC and UCLA remain. The two historic college basketball franchises hang multiple banners in their rafters and have some of the most legendary alumni rosters the game of basketball can offer, but did you know that the two schools squared off in an alumni game featuring Michael Jordan back in 1987? Legendary coaches Dean Smith and John Wooden patrolled the sidelines for the charity event at Pauley Pavilion and a tight matchup went in favor of the Tar Heels thanks to the performance of a young Michael Jordan. You can even catch the entire game on Youtube.

Now Jordan Brand is honoring the off-season alumni game with a brand new Jordan 2 that bridges the gap between MJ’s first few seasons in the league and his time as a Tar Heel. The colorway features a white base, Chicago accents of black and red throughout, and a light blue heel panel in honor of his UNC ties. Now’s the perfect time to drop the Jordan 2 UNC Alumni given the current bracket positions, but we’ll keep you updated on an official drop date via our Jordan Release Dates page. Catch a first preview below and stay tuned for more right here on Sneaker News.

Jordan Brand is always cooking up something special for NBA Finals season, as it’s the perfect time to remind everyone who the GOAT is even if a certain someone has a habit of making it to 6 straight Finals appearances and counting in the current league. This year, Jordan Brand will celebrate the 20th anniversary of Mike and the Bulls’ 6th and final NBA Championship with the return of the Defining Moments Pack, as a special edition Jordan 13 and Jordan 14 in honor of the 97-98 title will release this June.

The Jordan 13 DMP features a ‘Home’ motif with premium white leather allowing for a metallic gold patent leather to truly steal the show. The holographic Jumpman branding replaces the ’23’ with a ’98’ while the inner tongue lining features some competitive banter reading ‘you can’t win until we quit’. Red Jumpman branding on the tongue adds a Chicago touch. You can read more about this pair here. That wasn’t the only pair that MJ wore during his final championship campaign, though, as the Jumpman rolled out the Jordan 14 during the playoffs and it was the silhouette that Mike was wearing during his famous ‘shot’ to clinch a deciding Game 6 win over the Jazz in Utah.

The ‘Away’ themed Jordan 14 DMP has a predominantly black leather upper allowing for the gold foil branding to truly shine on the Ferrari-inspired pendant and outsole shank. Alternate ’98’ branding also replaces the usual ’23’ PE insignia on the heel, but it’s basically camouflaged given the matching black shade. Only the slightest bit of red hits the heel and the XIV circle on the herringbone outsole.

Be sure to check out more detailed shots of the Jordan 13 DMP and Jordan 14 DMP, each slated to arrive at select retailers this June 2017. For more of the latest upcoming offerings from the Jumpman, be sure to head over to our Jordan Release Dates page.

The arrival of the Air Jordan 4 Motorsport is set for this weekend, as its defining royal blue theme throughout essentially commemorates MJ?s Motorsports team.

With adult sizing priced at $190, you can also purchase this standout pair in GS sizes for $130 at select JB and Nike retailers starting Saturday, March 25th.

The Air Jordan 12 Wings will have a follow-up in spirit with this premium pre-aged patina-finished Jordan 1 complete with an homage to the famous Michael Jordan ‘Wings’ poster – you know the poster that most likely hung in your bedroom sometime during and throughout your middle to high school years complete with Mike’s outstretched almost life-sized wingspan.

The Jordan 1 Wings takes a different approach, but is just as premium as the Jordan 12 Wings thanks to a vintage-inspired leather upper complete with black piping, OG Wings branding, and a unique heel and tongue tag featuring the ‘Wings’ silhouette from the 1989 Nike poster. Other premium details include a familiar ‘Wings’ graphic lining that carries over from the Jordan 12, boot laces, and an icy outsole with bold Wings branding. There’s still no Release Date information for the coming Jordan 1 Wings retro, but we’re definitely feeling the different direction Jordan Brand took with this lifestyle take on MJ’s first silhouette. More details to come.

Another classic colorway of the Air Jordan 4 will be making a return this year, which consists of the Linen/Sand iteration that first released back in 2006.

Although it was a women’s exclusive, the forthcoming pair is suggested to remain a women?s exclusive and simply stay true to its OG counterpart. White tumbled leather comprises the sneaker’s majority, while the defining light sand tone is implemented throughout for a solid two-tone finish. In addition, pops of soar blue are applied on the branded tongue.

With its suggested retail price listed at $140, the sneaker is scheduled to debut sometime this Summer or Fall 2017.

Stay tuned to KicksOnFire for further updates.

As a follow up to last year’s Air Jordan 12 Wings, the Air Jordan 1 High will be treated in a similar aesthetic for one of its more stand out renditions this year.

Like the AJ 12, this pair is suggested to be extremely limited and may be a charity-based release with all proceeds supporting the Wings Foundation ? a program that works with teachers, mentors, and communities to instill strong education values in the youth.

Distressed leather covers its entire upper, while notable details include the Wings logo on its tongues, gold metal Wings on the heels, a golden Wings pattern on its insoles and an icy outsole that bears the wording ?WINGS? in white.

Stay tuned to KicksOnFire for its official release date and more.

Last year’s Air Jordan 12 Wings is considered as one of the best iterations of the silhouette, and now, the iconic Air Jordan 1 High will be offered in the same treatment this year.

Flaunting a premium distressed leather construction, the distinctive Wings logo is prominent on its tongues, gold Metal Wings on the heels, followed by the golden Wings pattern on its insoles, as well as the icy outsole that also reveals ?WINGS?.

Michael Jordan isn’t the only person who has Air Jordan 11 Low Golf shoes. NFL star and Jordan Brand athlete Dez Bryant also has them in his possession.

Bryant took to Instagram yesterday to post the golf cleat version of the Air Jordan 11 Low in the always popular Concord colorway. Just like the original Jordan 11, this golf version features a white mesh upper with a black patent leather mudguard. Down below is a TW ?13-inspired cleated clear outsole with Concord accents.

No word on these will ever release or not, but if they do we’ll be sure to let you know.

Jordan Brand is planning on releasing an Air Jordan 5 done in Red Suede, so why not drop an Air Jordan 5 Blue Suede? It only makes sense right? Judging by the looks of things, that’s exactly what they plan on doing. Who know, maybe the Red and Blue suede pair will form some kind of pack, right?

The Air Jordan 5 Blue Suede rocks a semi-tonal look as the Blue takes care of the entire suede upper, as well as the TPU netting, laces and the majority of the midsole. Breaking up the tonal look is the Black on the lining, the Grey (maybe 3M?) tongue and the Silver on the shark teeth on the midsole. We’ve yet to come across a picture that shows the entire shoe but so far so good right? Would you be down to rock an all Blue suede Jordan 5? Stay tuned as more info on this release begins to surface.
