Jordan Brand is bringing back the Air Jordan 6 in a number of new colorways to start off Spring 2016, but they have a few more releases in-store before the end of this year. The Air Jordan 6 “Black Cat” featuring 3M speckles and added perforations will be the last release of the year alongside this grade school exclusive Air Jordan 6 “Purple Dynasty”.

The Air Jordan 6 Purple Dynasty will release on January 30th, 2016 for $140 USD and features a luxurious purple suede upper perfect for all of you Lakers or Kings fans out there. Why not even the Phoenix Suns and Charlotte Hornets faithful then too? The simple colorway manages to keep a premium aesthetic thanks to the materials used, something that’s been an added feature to the grade school girl’s lineup recently with such offerings like the Air Jordan 11 Heiress.

What do you think of this look? Check out more detailed shots below and grab the Air Jordan 11 Purple Dynasty at select retailers on December 30th. Stay tuned for more Jordan Release Dates right here on Sneaker News.

The post Air Jordan 6 “Purple Dynasty” Release Date appeared first on Sneaker News.

You’ve seen the Air Jordan 31 in “Space Jam” and “Bred” colorways already, and now another classic color scheme from Air Jordan history hits the latest performance model. This time it’s the “Black Toe” colorway that gets re-interpreted onto the modern Air Jordan 31, which in this case we assume is meant to reference the Air Jordan 1, but could also make due as the “Black Toe” Air Jordan 14. The shoe features a black Flyweave toe that transitions to white leather at the heel, with red accents to complete the classic Bulls color palette and a translucent outsole below. No release date for the “Black Toe” Air Jordan 31 is available yet, so stay tuned to Sneaker News for further information if you like what you see.

The Air Jordan 6 Retro is back in a big way in 2017, and it’ll all be highlighted by this brand new colorway inspired by the mid-February classic. The Air Jordan 6 “All-Star” features an iridescent leather upper with hexagon Jumpman logos on the heel and insole – perhaps a nod to the Hornets, a franchise that was once located in New Orleans. As you know, the 2017 All-Star Game was originally scheduled to be held in Charlotte before the NBA made the decision to switch locations.

The Air Jordan 6 “All-Star” is confirmed to release on February 16th for $225 in both adult and kids sizes. Get a look at the official images ahead and look for these and several other new 2017 Jordans on our Jordan release dates calendar.

Following up on the release of the premium AJ 3 Wool, will be this kids-exclusive Air Jordan 3 to cap off the silhouette’s last iteration for 2016.

Draped in a bold, yet understated colorway of tonal black leather covering its upper, the defining element consists of rio teal accents gracing the inner lining, midsole unit and signature elephant print detailing prominent on the heel and toe cap.

Furthermore, the design is pronounced with gold accents gracing its Jumpman logos across the tongue and heel, as well as the lower eyelet. Finally, a clean white midsole and black rubber outsole caps off the bold design.

Priced at $140, you can purchase GS pair at select Nike and Jordan Brand retailers now, although, availability at more retailers begins on Christmas Eve, December 24th.

Additionally, GP and GT sizes will be offered as well, and retail for $80 and $60 respectively.

This past weekend brought a number of updates to Jordan Brand’s 2017 release slate, and today we get a look at a brand new Air Jordan 31 colorway headed to retailers on March 10th, 2017. The Jumpman will round out their 2016 with a brand new Air Jordan 6 Black Cat colorway featuring a premium perforated leather construction with additional 3M reflective accents, and now the Air Jordan 31 Black Cat will follow suit in the new year.

The Air Jordan 31 is heavily influenced by the Air Jordan 1 as Swoosh branding returns on the Flyweave upper in a gradient, but here the Black and Anthracite base focuses more on the Jumpman branding. The overall silhouette shape resembles Mike’s first signature silhouette while a premium leather heel panel provides support while also allowing for a more lifestyle ready aesthetic than past Jumpman signature models. The Jordan 31 Black Cat benefits from premium leather heel tags with a unique panther logo embossed on the inner tag so there’s no doubt about the Black Cat nickname that accompanies this pair.

The post The Air Jordan 31 Takes On Michael’s “Black Cat” Identity appeared first on Sneaker News.

The Air Jordan 6 is one of Michael Jordan’s more iconic retro models given the fact that it was the pair that MJ won his first championship. The Infrared colorways remain to be some of the most recognizable in the Jumpman catalog, but it’s also nice to see Jordan Brand experiment with the model like with the upcoming “Black Cat” colorway with additional 3M touches, micro-perforations, and more. This coming March 11, 2017, the brand will be taking a look back at the past with the release of the Air Jordan 6 “Alternate”, an homage to an early production sample that Mike could’ve worn during the 1991 playoff run.

Much like the Air Jordan 4 “Alternate” that released not too long ago, this pair features an alternate colorway construction featuring White, Pure Platinum accents, and a Gym Red finish for a decidedly different take on the classic “Chicago” theme. ‘1991’ stitching hits the inner tongue while Jordan Brand decided to skip over the additional icy blue tint on the outsole much like they did for the Air Jordan 6 Maroon. Today we also get news that this upcoming colorway will be available in grade school sizes in addition to the usual adult size run. What do you think of the look?

Be sure to head over to our always-updated Air Jordan Release Dates page for a full look at the coming Jumpman retro release slate for 2017 and let us know if you’re a fan of this Alternate Jordan 6 pair by taking your thoughts to our comments section below.

The classic Air Jordan 8 will be treated in Jordan Brand’s alternate iteration next year, as this particular pair is reflective of the original Bugs Bunny theme.

Essentially a tribute to an unreleased variation which didn’t make it into production when the Bugs Bunny pair released in 1993, the silhouette is dressed in an appealing color scheme of white, black and red.

White leather with perforations covers its upper, while contrasting red and black accents are scattered throughout its entirety. A graphic inner liner and ?1993? on the pull tabs completes the respective design.

Retailing for $190, you can purchase this standout pair at select JB and Nike retailers starting February 25, 2017.

With its suggested retail price listed at $140, you can expect to find this pair at select JB and Nike retailers starting in January 2017.

I don’t know what the majority of you guys think, but if you ask me, the Air Jordan 31 has been dishing out some clean colorways as of late. Adding to their already impressive arsenal is this Bulls-esque colorway that has the model done in White, Black and Red.

Done in the model’s original construction, the Air Jordan 31 comes in a predominantly White woven and leather upper, with hits of Black sprinkled on to the toe. The Red hits come into play in areas such as the Flywire, gradient midsole, outsole and branding on the insoles. A White leather tongue tag, a Black Jumpman on the side of the heel and outsole and the Black fading Nike Swoosh on the paneling completes the look of the shoe. No word yet on when these will drop, but keep it locked and we’ll provide the information for you as soon as it becomes available.

The post Another Bulls-Themed Colorway Of The Air Jordan 31 Has Surfaced appeared first on KicksOnFire.com.

Previously believed to be the “Hare” colorway, this new Air Jordan 6 is part of Jordan Brand’s “Alternate” collection that debuted in 2016.

Covered in a combination of White and Pure Platinum throughout the upper, this Jordan 6 utilizes leather and nubuck throughout. Perforations have then been added on the side panels as well as smaller ones on the heel/ankle. Finally we have Gym Red detailing on the tongue, inner liner, heel tab, and midsole. This colorway was designed with the mentality that MJ would/could have worn it during his playing days. The year 1991 has even been added on the inner tongue to complete the look.

Take a look at the official images of the GS pair above and look for the Air Jordan 6 Alternate to release on March 11, 2017 for $190.
