Release Date: January 28, 2017
Price: $190 (Adult) – $140 (GS)

During 2005, LA-based streetwear label, Undefeated, produced a special rendition of the Air Jordan 4.

In 2017, the Air Jordan 8 will be reinterpreted in a color scheme that is somewhat reflective of the lifestyle imprint’s signature tones, although, this forthcoming pair doesn’t correlate with the Los Angeles brand as previous rumors suggested.

The sneaker’s nubuck-based upper is essentially draped in sequoia green, while black and wolf grey accents are implemented on the rear mudguard, tongue and sole unit. Finally, pops of max orange adorn the chenille Jumpman-branded tongue patch and graphic detailing on the outsole to cap off the respective theme.

Update: (12/09) Sneaker retailer, Sole NYC, has received a look see sample of the purported sneaker.

Update: (10/19) GS sizes are reported to be offered as well and will retail for $140.

Author’s Take:

Renz Ofiaza, News: I?m a fan of the silhouette, as well as the LA-based brand, and this offering looks pretty solid (pending this is how the real pair will look). Nonetheless, this will obviously get the attention it deserves. Re-sale prices should be pretty high.

A couple of weeks ago Forbes reported that Michael Jordan is the the highest-paid athlete of all-time. But The GOAT isn’t only a wealthy man in the sports world, he’s also filthy rich according to another standard.

A new report by Forbes ranks Michael Jordan as the 4th richest celebrity in America for 2016. According to Forbes, Jordan has an estimated net worth of $1.2 billion. Michael only trails Oprah Winfrey ($2.8 billion), Steven Spielberg ($3.7 billion), and George Lucas ($4.6 billion) on the list. So what’s MJ’s “key source of fortune”? Yeah, you guessed it. Jordan Brand.

Two Instagram photos have gone viral, showcasing the highly-coveted fragment x Air Jordan 1 that released in late 2014 with a Marshall’s tag with a $59.99 price. It sounds completely inane that these rare gems would appear at the discount retailer, but we’ve definitely seen some random gems pop up from time to time. Considering the shoes sell for around $1,500 on eBay and Stadium Goods, many are calling this a hoax.
