Summertime is always the season of the Air Jordan 11 Low, as Jordan Brand brings the patent leather lowtop back in a number of new and old inspirations alike. The last time that we saw the Air Jordan 11 Low “Barons”, we previewed the grade school size run of the baseball-inspired colorway, but today we finally have a look at the adult size featuring a premium black upper with a unique gradient fade throughout the patent leather mudguard.

Michael Jordan’s first retirement came as a shock to many, especially when the greatest basketball player alive decided to ditch the hardwood for the baseball diamond. Mike signed a deal with the Chicago White Sox minor league affiliated Birmingham Barons, as the Sox muted white and black pinstripes were translated to the Double-A club. While there’s no pinstripes on this retro like in past Barons-referencing pairs, the black upper skips out on the Cordura mesh for a sturdier nubuck upper. The iridescent-like sheen found on the mudguard is similar to the Air Jordan 11 “72-10” but with the added benefit of Metallic Silver throughout.

What do you think of the Air Jordan 11 Low Barons? You can expect this pair to arrive in a family size run come April 2017, but there’s still no official Release Date pinned down just yet. Check out more detailed shots below and stay tuned for more updates right here on Sneaker News.

Jordan Brand will be celebrating the Chinese New Year in style this weekend with a Chinese exclusive release of their bold Jordan Chinese New Year Collection featuring the likes of two different Air Jordan 12 colorways and an updated Air Jordan 31. Each model features real Bamboo accents on the lace eyelets or heel depending on the silhouette while Chinese characters add to the celebratory motif. Today we get word that availability stateside will only continue to grow when the U.S. release date rolls around on January 28th, as retail giants like Foot Locker will be stocking the trio.

The Air Jordan 12 Chinese New Year features a “Taxi” like colorway in white and black with a unique mudguard pattern standing out. Chinese characters hit the tongue to match the Bamboo eyelets. The grade school girl’s pair takes a different approach as an off-white upper sees Team red on the lining add a dash of vibrancy. The Air Jordan 31 Chinese New Year aims to go an entirely different route thanks to a premium white leather heel giving way to the patented Swoosh gradient in black. Perhaps the most noticeable asset of this pair is the Bamboo heel contrasting the icy outsole.

Yo! We have big news to share with you! We just came across this huge rumor suggesting that a collaboration between Jordan Brand and KAWS is in the works! Although nothing is confirmed just yet, early rumors suggest it’s going to be an KAWS x Air Jordan 4 collab.

A while back, an Air Jordan 4 with a Black suede upper with hits of Gold sitting on top of glow-in-the-dark outsole displaying Kaws? signature X on the bottom leaked. With this rumor surfacing, it leads us to believe that that shoe could end up being the KAWS x Air Jordan 4 release.

Jordan news source J23App just tweeted the  ?Jordan x Kaws? rumor, being that they’re a reliable source, this “rumor” could very well end up being confirmed by Jordan Brand in the near future. As of right now, it’s being said that the KAWS x Air Jordan 4 will be releasing on March 1st, 2017. It should also be noted that the initial color scheme is said to be Cool Grey/White. Which is kind of odd since the initial color scheme was said to be Black and Gold. I guess we will have to wait and see what the real color scheme is.

If these do end up releasing, on a scale from 1-10, how hyped do you think these end up being? Do I even have to ask?! Stay tuned as more info begins to surface!

Serena Williams has dominated the world of women’s tennis in the same way that Michael Jordan dominated basketball during his prime, so it shouldn’t come as too big of a surprise that the Nike athlete will be getting her own Air Jordan 1 colorway in the near future. Today we get a first look at the upcoming Air Jordan 1 Serena Williams in a grade school size run, as the familiar colorway of Vivid Pink and Black come together featuring Serena’s signature logo stitched on the heel and tongue. There’s still plenty to look forward to after the Air Jordan 1’s big year in 2016 with classic colorways like the Air Jordan 1 “Royal” slated to make a return in the near future, but what do you think of Serena’s exclusive AJ1 colorway holding down the grade school Jordan line? Check out a preview of the Air Jordan 1 Serena Williams below and stay tuned for an official Release Date right here on Sneaker News.

The first-ever “team” model released after Jordan Brand began in 1997, the Jordan Jumpman Pro looks to be back for another retro run to celebrate its 20th birthday. Built with a similar design as the Air Jordan 12, its official Air Jordan contemporary from the same year, the Jumpman Pro features a full-grain leather upper with a Zoom-cushioned sole. Hopefully a better quality retro than the last time the shoe appeared in 2008 with poor leather and no carbon fiber shanks, it looks like the original black and red colorway previewed here does at least have translucent red outsoles like the original, as opposed to the solid rubber on the ’08 version. Along with the original black, red, and white colorway, we see two all-new versions in white/cement and “Cool Grey”.

Are you happy to see the original team Jordan shoe return for its 20th birthday? Get a nice preview of the three upcoming colorways here, and we’ll let you know when they get confirmed release dates.

Jordan Brand’s 2017 retro release slate kicked off this past weekend with one of the more unexpected bring-backs in quite some time: the stealth flight bomber-inspired Air Jordan 15. The all black woven style is definitely a polarizing way to kick off the new year for the Jumpman, but for those of you that wanted to wait to see what else the brand had in store for this January, this coming weekend another near all black retro will be releasing with the introduction of the Air Jordan 12 Low “Max Orange” on January 14th, 2017 for $170 USD.

The Air Jordan 12 Low is slated to have a big Spring 2017 season with a number of fresh colorways headed to retailers beginning with the Air Jordan 12 Low Max Orange. While this pair is nicknamed for the vibrant side panel stripe on the lower half of the silhouette, this particular colorway boasts a mostly Black and Anthracite appearance for a simple look perfect for any occasion. A synthetic suede and nubuck construction holds down the entirety of the upper while a tumbled leather mudguard adds contrasting texture. What do you think of the look?

Check out where you can buy this Air Jordan 12 Low Max Orange below and be sure to head over to our Air Jordan Release Dates page for an updated look at all of the coming Jumpman releases.

Scheduled to debut later this month will be the Air Jordan 8 Take Flight, as it’ll be one of the newest colorways of the silhouette to kick off Jordan Brand’s standout 2017 lineup.

Evoking a militaristic vibe, the sneaker’s aesthetic is essentially inspired from bomber jackets and fighter planes. Nubuck, along with the addition of neoprene for the very first time, comprises the overall silhouette, which is draped in sequoia green.

Black and wolf grey accents are implemented on the rear mudguard, tongue and sole unit, while pops of max orange adorn the chenille Jumpman-branded tongue patch and graphic detailing on the outsole to cap off the respective colorway.

Priced at $190, you can buy this pair at select JB and Nike retailers starting January 28th.
