This is the colorway that Jordan Brand wants to end 2016 with? They could have done much better. Oh well, that still gave us lots of dope pairs throughout the year.

Author’s Takes

Andres Carrillo, News: I wouldn’t say I’m a fan of the Air Jordan 9 since I don’t own any pairs, but I think this one of the better colorways in existence. You can’t go wrong with a classic Chicago/Bulls colorway. I don’t plan on picking up a pair unless I can get it for well below retail.

Another Look At The Air Jordan 11 Low Barons

Following a full reveal of the Air Jordan 11 Low Barons, more new imagery of the forthcoming silhouette continue to be unveiled, this time juxtaposed against a natural setting.

Somewhat reminiscent of the Air Jordan 11 72-10, the sneaker’s defining element is focalized on its patent leather overlays which are shaded in a dark ash grey hue. Tonal black further comprises the upper, while the notable ?23? and Jumpman logos are embroidered on the heel tab.

Rumors suggest this pair to make its debut sometime in 2017.

Stay tuned to KicksOnFire for further updates.

Author’s Take

It does somewhat evoke the 72-10s a bit. I’m generally not a fan of the sneaker in low-cut I?m not really a fan of the silhouette in low-top form, but, it?s always an appealing profile.

Another Preview Of The Air Jordan 5 Tan Tongue

Additional previews of this upcoming Air Jordan 5 in an olive/tan finish is featured, as it may possibly be another iteration from JB’s standout pinnacle lineup.

The basketball sneaker has been elevated with more lifestyle appeal with a revamped upper that seems to be comprised of leather/nubuck in dark olive green. The focal point is directed at the tan leather tongues which further add luxe flair. Other notable details include the traditional mesh netting on the sides panels being more refined in a minimalist finish, as it?s all topped off with waxed rope laces and icy translucent outsoles.

Stay tuned to KicksOnFire for further updates.

This pair is suggested to make its debut in 2017.

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.

Theres An Air Jordan 1 Sample That Reminds Us Of Michael Jordans Jeans


Michael Jordan’s jeans have been a cultural phenomenon thanks to the oversized fit and frequent appearance of ripped and torn selvage denim. MJ’s own kids even referenced their dad’s signature off-court style with the Air Jordan 1 “Family Forever” from a few years back. Today we get a look at a rare Air Jordan 1 sample featuring a ripped light denim exterior complete with Pinnacle-esque Metallic Gold branding on the updated ‘Wings’ pendant branding.

The latest Air Jordan 1 Ripped Denim Sample comes complete with frayed piping to further the whole aesthetic while contrast stitching hits the midsole in an effort to pay homage to light wash jeans. Jordan Brand employees have actually been spotted wearing this rare sample at past events, so we know that they’ve legitimately been produced by the brand sometime in the past couple of years. Whether this Air Jordan 1 will actually make it to store shelves in the future remains to be seen, but what do you think of the look? Check out a better view below and stay tuned for more Jordan release date updates right here on Sneaker News.

If this Air Jordan 3 doesn’t look familiar to you that’s because it’s one of the rarest sneakers in existence.
