The Air Jordan 3 True Blue is on most people’s short list of the greatest Air Jordans ever made. Despite having been brought back a few times through the years by Jordan Brand, the anticipation for each comeback is welcomed by sneakerheads, Jordan fans and hypebeasts alike. The sneaker landscape is much different in 2016 than it was the last time the True Blue made a return to stores; competition from other brands and changing tastes have all but rendered only the most limited or hyped Js relevant. Despite the shift (and the True Blues $220 price tag), we don’t think Nike will have any problems selling these this Black Friday and through the weekend.

Check out our unboxing of the Air Jordan 3 True Blue, courtesy of Champs Sports. For more live unboxings and to make sure you’re notified the next time we broadcast, go like our Facebook page.

The Air Jordan 16 has been back in the spotlight as of late due to high-profile collaborative editions from the likes of SoleFly and Trophy Room, but for the first time since 2008, it’s back in an original colorway. Retroing in an OG look for only the second time since the black and red colorway appeared in the 7/16 Countdown Pack, Michael Jordan’s sixteenth shoe is hitting the shelves for a special Christmas treat for its appreciators in the white and Midnight Navy color scheme. Replicating the original release from way back in 2001, the “Midnight Navy” retro comes complete with a full-grain white leather upper and shroud and a glossy navy finish for the signature patent leather toe cap.

Get your latest detailed look for the return of the “Midnight Navy” Air Jordan 16 here, and mark your calendars (or put them on your list to Santa Claus) in preparation for the December 22nd drop date.

With the AJ 3 True Blue releasing this weekend, another notable Jordan silhouette with the Air Jordan 1 High Top 3, will follow days after to cap off the month of November.

As suggested, the basketball sneaker?s aesthetic is defined by the mixture of three iconic original AJ 1 colorways ? ?Chicago,? ?Banned? and ?Royal?. Each respective palette is prominent on a particular portion of the silhouette?s premium leather composition for a unique build. Three sets of matching laces also complement the aesthetic.

Furthermore, the three colors utilized is in reference to Michael Jordan?s draft placement in the 1984 NBA Draft.

With adult sizes priced at $160, you can purchase a pair at select Nike and JB stockists starting Cyber Monday, November 28th.

This ?What The?-inspired theme on the sneaker came out solid and I like how three colorways were only utilized. I?m a fan.

Three more days until the remastered OG Air Jordan 3 True Blue will make its official debut, as it’ll follow-up on the last appearance from 2011.

As suggested, this 2016 model stays true to its original design ethos. White tumbled leather comprises its upper, while the signature cement grey paneling is prominent on the eye stays, heel and toe cap.

True Blue accents located on the midsole unit and inner lining, followed by pops of red adorning the outsole, tongue and eyelets round out its classic color scheme. Furthermore, classic ?Nike Air? branding is applied on the insoles and back heel tab to round out its distinguishable details.

Offered in full family sizing, adult (mens) sizes are listed at $220 ? while GS, PS and Toddler sizes retail for $160, $80 and $60 respectively.

Purchase a pair at select Nike and JB stockists starting this Black Friday, November 25th.

The luxury-themed trims of the Air Jordan 31 continue to surface as we get a first look at an Air Jordan 31 “Snakeskin”, revealed by a Jordan Brand employee through Instagram. Featuring a grey suede and greyscale Snakeskin upper, this Jordan 31 replaces the enlarged Jumpman on the heel with the classic Wings logo on the ankle section of the shoes. Like the Air Jordan 31 Lux that was revealed at Complex Con earlier this month, this Jordan 31 doesn’t make use of the Flyweave upper. A retail release hasn’t been confirmed yet.

2016 has most certainly been the year of the Air Jordan 12 for Jordan Brand, but it looks like at least one more new release for the heralded design will leak over in 2017. Perhaps the last Air Jordan 12 we’ll see for a while, Jordan celebrates the Chinese New Year with this special colorway of the Air Jordan 12 exclusively for the young ladies in Gradeschool Girls (GG) sizing. After an early preview last week, today we get a full look at the colorway, which features a tonal light tan upper with a woven texture for the signature toe paneling, faux wood lace eyelets and “Jumpman” labels, and a red inner lining and Chinese characters on the tongue.

Slated to drop in January 2017, enjoy this early look and stay tuned to our Jordan release dates page for an exact drop date.

Jordan Brand has one last Air Jordan 1 OG colorway planned to release before the end of 2016 with the Air Jordan 1 Storm Blue dropping at nationwide retailers on December 23rd for the perfect unexpected Holiday 2016 offering.

The Air Jordan 1 “Storm Blue” is one of those rare Jumpman pairs that’s never seen an actual retro release. While the Holiday 2016 slate will undoubtedly revolve around the likes of the Space Jam 11s and the True Blue 3s, Jordan Brand was kind enough to include one last OG installment before we head into the new year. Strangely enough, the GS size run has already released in Europe, but for those of you hoping to get your hand on this White/Storm Blue installment, you won’t have to wait that much longer.

Are you excited about the Air Jordan 1 Storm Blue returning in the near future? Check out more detailed shots below and stay tuned updated on the latest Jumpman plans via our Jordan release dates page.

We’re only one week away from the Air Jordan 1 High Top 3 releasing. I had convinced myself that this was not a Jordan 1 that I felt I “needed” in my collection. Now that I’ve come across these latest images of the shoe, I’m having second thoughts cause the be quite honest, they’re looking pretty good right about now. If you happen to be in the same predicament, I’m pretty sure looking at these new images will also make you have a change of heart.

At first I thought there wasn’t enough contrast between the two pairs, but now that I see the shoe in different angles, I feel like it has just enought differences from the left and right shoe to give it a unique look. Although I would have prefered that Jordan Brand use a different (better) type of leather, perhaps one with more texture (kind of like the Breds), it’s still dope enough to be a shoe I’d consider picking up, even if it’s just to put on my self. Being that it utilizes some of the best colorways of the model, it’s truly of work of art. Set to drop in adult sizes as well as kid (GS) sizes, you will be able to get your hands on a pair beginning November 29th (Cyber Monday).

Being a member of the Jordan Brand team has lots of perks. Not only do you get to wear tons of dope sneakers on the court/field, but Michael Jordan also hooks you up with pretty much every upcoming release off the court.

LaMarcus Aldridge is one of the newer members of the Jordan Brand family and the people over at the brand gave him a real nice package for the holidays. Posted on his Twitter, Aldridge gives us a look at the Space Jam box set that he received which has also been given out to influencers and YouTubers in the sneaker community. The special package includes a custom giant Space Jam-themed box, a Blu-Ray copy of Space Jam the movie, and the upcoming 2016 Air Jordan 11 Space Jam and the Air Jordan 31 Space Jam which are housed inside the bottom compartment of the box.

How much would you be willing to pay for this special Space Jam promo package if it was made available at retailers?

Its been well documented that DJ Khaled has real close ties with Jordan Brand as they’re always sending him releases weeks and even months ahead of the official release date. And thanks to his Snapchat, Khaled gives us all a first look at some of those kicks.

He wasted no time throwing them on-feet as he wore the Black Cat 6s to the AMA Awards last night. The sneakers feature an all-black leather upper with perforations and reflective detailing.

Ah, to be a Jordan Brand athlete. LaMarcus Aldridge knows the numerous perks in rocking with the Jumpman, as the San Antonio Spurs star Power Forward recently received an awesome Space Jam 11 Package complete with an all-black Tune Squad jersey, a commemorative 20th anniversary Space Jam Blue Ray, a ‘Monstars Secret Stuff’ water bottle to answer the call to Michael Jordan’s legendary halftime speech that involved some placebo trickery from Bugs Bunny, and much more.

While we’re fairly certain that the option to purchase all of these Air Jordan 11 Space Jam associated products in one awesome box won’t be available to the public this Holiday 2016 season, you can stay updated the latest Jordan release dates right here on Sneaker News. The Air Jordan 11 Space Jam is slated to release on December 10th for $220 USD.

Drake is everywhere. Avoiding a news day without an appearance from the Candian actor turned rapper would be a surprising feat given Drake’s Apple Music deal, news of his latest album on the way, a pending collaboration with Kanye, or even his collaborative efforts with Jordan Brand. (His Air Jordan 12 OVO Black is rumored to drop at All-Star Weekend this coming February). The latest Drake-infused news comes in the form of an Apple Music spot where Drizzy attempts to bench press a little more than he can handle after getting pumped up to Taylor Swift’s “Bad Blood” at the gym.

Drake chose to skip out on any of his OVO Jordan collaborations for the limited Air Jordan 12 Wings in the video. While we don’t necessarily agree with his taste in workout music, the footwear selection was on-point. Check out the latest Apple Music video spot below and stay tuned for more of the latest Jordan Brand updates right here on Sneaker News.
