In what has been a pretty big year for Jordan Brand, the Jumpman will be closing out 2016 with a toned down colorway of one of their most popular sneakers.

Set to arrive retailers on the final day of the year is the Black Cat colorway of the Air Jordan 6. This Air Jordan 6 comes covered in (almost) all black with the defining feature being the large perforations that have been placed on the toe and side panels. Adding some pop to this release are reflective 3M hits on the laces and on the perforations by the ankle. For some strange reason, subtle hits of White have been added on the midsole along with some blue detailing on the outsole.

Look for the Air Jordan 6 Black Cat at select Jordan Brand accounts beginning tomorrow, December 31st, for a retail price of $190.

Michael Jordan’s first post-retirement shoe, the Air Jordan 15, is set to return next week as we’ll see the OG Stealth colorway receive the retro treatment.

Many of you may remember when this shoe originally released back in 1999 as the silhouette takes inspiration from a stealth fighter plane. This “Stealth” colorway comes covered in Black throughout the majority of the shoe with subtle hits of Anthracite and Varsity Red landing on the branding, midsole, and heel.

Take a look at the official images above and look for the Air Jordan 15 Stealth to release on January 7, 2017 for $190.

It has been pretty well documented that actor Mark Wahlberg has close ties with Jordan Brand with one of the latest bits of evidence was him being gifted the Air Jordan 11 Suede last month.

In the latest episode of Wahlburgers, a reality television show that follows Mark and his family around, it was revealed that Marky Mark will be collaborating with Jordan Brand to design his own shoe. In the episode, Mark took a trip to Beaverton to meet with the Jordan Brand team where he says he wants to talk to Phil Knight and Michael Jordan about creating his own workout apparel for the everyday guy under the Nike brand.

While the images above show some recently released, as well as unreleased Jordan retros, it appears that the shoe that Wahlberg will be working with will be the Jordan Formula 23 Trainer. It also may only be a pair designed for promotional purposes for his Wahlburgers restaurants, so don’t expect a retail release.

Jordan Brand continues to experiment by making classic Jordan retro silhouettes into shoe appropriate for the golf course. Up next is the Air Jordan 1 Chicago. Here’s a first look at the Air Jordan 1 Chicago Golf Cleat.

The Air Jordan 1 Chicago Golf Cleat comes equipped with spikes on the outsoles to make it suitable and more than appropriate to get you ‘Tiger Woods’ on. The branding on the shoe is slightly modified, but aside from that, it’s essentially an Air Jordan 1 Chicago. What are you initial thoughts? Would you be down to rock these on the green? Expect to see these drop early on in 2017.

Aside from the Air Jordan 11 Low Columbia that will be making a return next year, Jordan Brand also has new colorways of the Jordan 11 Low that will also be dropping. One of those colorways is the Air Jordan 11 Low Barons. Here are the official images of this Jordan 11 Low set to drop in April.

As mentioned above, this Air Jordan 11 Low Barons is a brand new colorway placed on the model. It comes with a color scheme consisting of a Black nubuck upper accented by the Ash Grey patent leather placed on the toe and mudguard. Adding more of a premium feel to the shoe is the Black leather placed on the heels. A White midsole, milky translucent outsole and Metallic Silver branding complete the look. Now that you’ve gotten a good look at the shoe, are you excited about this release? Look for this to drop during the month of April for the retail price of $175.

We just gave you a first look at the 2017 version of the Air Jordan 11 Low Columbia. Now we have the shoe’s official images for you.

Just like we mentioned in the post before this one, this retro is not done to the exact specifications as the pair that released back in 2001. Yes, the color scheme remains the same but there are minor differences on the shoe. For starters, the translucent outsole appears to have more of a Blue tint to it. Secondly, the Blue used on the patent leather mudguard/toe appears to be more of a University Blue. Regardless, it’s pretty dope to see this classic colorway of the 11 Low making a return. Expect these to drop sometime in May for the retail price of $175 for adults and $130 for grade school sizes. Are you happy to see these making a return? Let us know in the comments below.

Back in September we let you know that Jordan Brand would be bringing back the Air Jordan 11 Low Columbia sometime during the month of May 2017. Today we have our first look at the actual 2017 model of the low top Columbia 11.

Said to be a part of Jordan Brand’s Summer 2017 lineup, the Air Jordan 11 Low Columbia hasn’t dropped since 2001, so it’s safe to say many of the people who own pairs of this colorway are in need of an upgrade. Although this “Columbia” of the Air Jordan 11 Low will be making a return, it appears to not be constructed in the same manner. The 2001 version was done in a White mesh upper, this 2017 version is constructed out of a White leather. What does remain the same is the Columbia Blue patent leather placed on the toe/mudguard. A White midsole and translucent outsole round out the look of the shoe. Are you a fan of the new leather upper? If so, you can expect to see these drop sometime during May for the retail price of $175

The Air Jordan 11 Low UNC won’t be the only Air Jordan 11 retro releasing Summer 2017 paying tribute to Michael Jordan’s past. Everyone knows Michael Jordan as the GOAT basketball player with the GOAT signature sneaker line, but MJ did take a hiatus away from the sport he dominated to try his hand at baseball. That’s where this Air Jordan 11 Low Barons colorway comes in, to remind you that even though one of Mike’s greatest signature sneakers came after his first retirement, we can still remember his Birmingham Barons stint fondly.

The Air Jordan 11 Low Barons will be available in both adult and kids’ size runs this Summer 2017 season featuring a premium all-black upper with hints of Metallic Silver throughout. The Air Jordan 11 “72-10” comes to mind here with the combination of a clean white midsole and solid white outsole unit while the patent leather mudguard features a premium pre-cracked aesthetic with iridescent touches for a look we haven’t seen before. What do you think of the look?

Check out more detailed shots of the Air Jordan 11 Low Barons below and head over to our Air Jordan Release Dates page for an updated look at the Jumpman’s coming 2017 schedule.

Tar Heel fans, rejoice. Jordan Brand loves paying tribute to Michael Jordan’s alma mater, the University of North Carolina, with shoutouts to the school in the form of University Blue accents on a number of Jordan retros in years past. Now the Air Jordan 11 Low UNC is finally returning in retro this summer.

The summertime is always when the Air Jordan 11 Low thrives, and the Air Jordan 11 Low UNC will return at the perfect time, over 16 years after the patent leather gem featuring Columbia Blue debuted at retailers in 2001. A little bit has changed since =the original, as an updated blue tint can be expected to hit the icy outsole unit to match the UNC shade on the mudguard. Of course, this year’s rendition comes with a slight alteration in the particular shade of blue, as the original “Columbia Blue” is now known as “University Blue”. Are you excited about the return of the Air Jordan 11 Low UNC?

Essentially taking cues from the black panther, the sneaker inherits a stealthy black finish across its entire upper with 3M reflective detailing evident throughout. The respective theme is further evident on the insoles with a graphic, while the circular hologram on the heel and outsole simply mimics the panther?s eye with a greenish hue.
