Air Jordan 1 High Top 3 2 Air Jordan 1 High Top 3 Air Jordan 1 High Top 3 1 Air Jordan 1 High Top 3 3

Aside from the standout December lineup from Jordan Brand, this month’s release with the Air Jordan 1 High Top 3 is a notable pair to cap off November.

Featured in its GS sizing, the basketball sneaker?s aesthetic is defined by the mixture of three iconic original AJ 1 colorways ? ?Chicago,? ?Banned? and ?Royal?. Each respective palette simply graces a portion of the silhouette?s premium leather composition for a unique aesthetic. Additionally, 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.

The Air Jordan 11 Low Barons Drop Next April

air-jordan-11-low-barons air-jordan-11-low-barons-1 air-jordan-11-low-barons-2 air-jordan-11-low-barons-3 air-jordan-11-low-barons-4 air-jordan-11-low-barons-5 air-jordan-11-low-barons-6

The Air Jordan 11 Low model will make its return next year as the Spring season will bring forth a brand new colorway of the silhouette. Currently known as the Air Jordan 11 Low Barons, today we get our latest look of the upcoming drop.

Rocking the colors closely associated to the Birmingham Barons (the minor league team baseball team that Micheal Jordan played for during his short stint with the sport), the shoe comes in a Black nubuck and leather upper sitting on top of a White midsole and translucent outsole. The shoe’s most notable feature is the without a doubt the iridescent-like patent leather overlays placed on the mudguard. Metallic Silver on the branding give the shoe some additonal pop. As of right now the shoe has a tentative release date of April 2017 with a retail price set at $175. Are you a fan of this colorway? Let us know in the comments below.

Author’s Take

Even with the iridescent mudguard, I still think the shoe is missing something. Take away the shiny look and it’s essnetially an 11 Low with a Black base, something we’ve seen plany of time before on this model.

AIR JORDAN 11 1

Will we finally be seeing an all-red Air Jordan 11 actually arrive at retailers?

Ever since Carmelo Anthony donned his pair a few years back, there has been rumors here and there that a similar pair could possibly be releasing to the public. Today we take a look at a new picture that has leaked which shows what could be a sample pair of 11s that could possibly be releasing in 2017. The shoe comes covered in red all throughout the upper with subtle gold accents.

At the moment this release is heavily rumored, but we may see it drop during the 2017 holiday season. Make sure you stay tuned to Kicks On Fire for updates.

WWE Kicks: Shane McMahon To Wear Air Jordan 31s For Survivor Series Tonight

Shane McMahon 1 Shane McMahon 2 Shane McMahon 3

WWE is holding their annual Survivor Series pay-per-view tonight from the Air Canada Centre in Toronto, Canada (shout out to my Raptors.) Chosen as the General Manager of Smackdown Live this past Summer, Shane McMahon has not been in action since his epic Hell In A Cell match at WrestleMania 32 against The Undertaker (where he wore some custom Air Jordan 30s).

But Shane O Mac will be back in the ring tonight as Team Smackdown will be facing Team Raw to prove which side is superior. Just like Shane did on the night of WrestleMania, he’ll be wearing an exclsuive pair of Air Jordans tonight. Jordan Brand has laced him up with the Air Jordan 31 USA with a few minor additions like special tongue tabs, lace dubraes, and special packaging that comes with a Shane O Mac dustbag.

So who’s your money on tonight, Team Raw or Team Smackdown? I’m gonna side with Team Raw.

Air Jordan 12 Air Jordan 12 1

Following a quick glimpse, a full reveal of the Air Jordan 12 CNY in its GS/GG rendition is now presented, which will also join alongside the Air Jordan 12 3M Reflective in celebration of Chinese New Year.

This Air Jordan 5 Premium Debuts Next Year

Air Jordan 5 Tan Tongue Air Jordan 5 Tan Tongue 1 Air Jordan 5 Tan Tongue 2 Air Jordan 5 Tan Tongue 3 Air Jordan 5 Tan Tongue 4 Air Jordan 5 Tan Tongue 5 Air Jordan 5 Tan Tongue 6

A detailed look at this forthcoming Air Jordan 5 in an olive/tan finish continue to surface online, as its suggested release is scheduled for sometime in 2017.

Most likely another iteration from Jordan Brand?s standout pinnacle lineup, which is defined by more premium materials — this iteration of the classic basketball sneaker has been elevated with more lifestyle appeal. A revamped upper comprised of leather/nubuck in dark olive green dresses its overall profile, while a notable highlight consists of its tan leather tongues which further adds luxe flair.

Other notable elements include the traditional mesh netting on the sides panels being more refined in a minimalist finish, as it?s all adhered atop icy translucent outsoles.

Stay tuned to KicksOnFire for further updates.

This approach of reinterpreting classic Jordans with premium materials continue to be appealing in my opinion. I?m not against this iteration. It looks pretty solid so far.

A Closer Look At The Air Jordan 11 Wool

The Air Jordan 11 Space Jam and Suede iterations will be joined alongside the Air Jordan 11 Wool this holiday 2016 season — another premium rendition of the iconic silhouette.

Just like the previously released AJ 12, the basketball sneaker is defined by its elevated lifestyle appeal and functionality through the application of a wool-constructed upper rendered in dark grey.

Complementing black accents are prominent on the laces and heel, which also doesn’t incorporate the traditional ?23? logo. Finally, a crisp white midsole unit and slightly translucent outsole finishes off the overall design.

Priced at $400, this model is suggested to make its debut at select Nike and JB stockists soon.

Author’s Take

I?m liking the woolen upper. It?s just nice seeing other materials being applied on the sneaker. The colorway overall is pretty versatile, but, I?ll have to disagree with that price tag ? just like everyone else.

Jalen Ramsey Of The Jacksonville Jaguars Stunts In His Custom Air Jordan 9 Cleats

Jalen Ramsey 1

Jalen Ramsey is an NFL rookie cornerback who currently plays for the Jacksonville Jaguars. Although his time in the NFL consists of only a handful of NFL game, that doesn’t mean he’s not allowed to stunt. What you see above is a custom pair of Air Jordan 9 cleats covered in a jaguar print. Created by sneaker customizer Kickasso, the cleat also comes with Black leather panels and Teal trim lines that help the jaguar print stand out even more. While we’re still unsure this passed NFL protocol to be used in actual game, it’s still a pretty dope work of art, huh?

When we think of this year’s Space Jam Collection the shoes that come to mind are the Jordan 11 and Jordan 31, also the Jordan 9 to a certain extent since Jordan Brand officially started naming it the Jordan 9 “Space Jam” this year.

One of those shoes from the collection is this Air Jordan 1 that you see above. Covered in a leather upper with a patent leather overlays, this Air Jordan 1 features a couple of different shades of black on the entire upper with a contrasting white midsole and black rubber outsole.

Super clean colorway of the Air Jordan 1 that definitely deserves more recognition. If these had Nike Air on the tongue I guarantee you that they’d be flying off the shelves. I may cop a pair of they fall below retail.
