Air Jordan 6 1 Air Jordan 6 Air Jordan 6 2 Air Jordan 6 3

Even more images of the forthcoming Air Jordan 6 Chameleon continue to release, as this latest gallery places an emphasis on the basketball sneaker?s defining aesthetic once more.

Sporting by a stealthy black leather upper which reveals an iridescent finish that shifts in colors depending on certain lighting conditions, it’s suggested that this shimmering element is achieved when rubbed off, which was a prominent feature that was first found on the Air Jordan 12 Wings.

Additional design details include a Jumpman badge embroidery on the heels, 3M reflective accents, more iridescent accents on the lace tips and the clear translucent outsole also inheriting the iridescent detailing for a truly eye-catching finish.

You can expect to find this standout pair at select Nike and JB stockists starting February 17, 2017 for $225.

The Air Jordan 11 Suede Will Be $400


The Air Jordan 11 has always been a premium lifestyle offering from Jordan Brand. When Tinker Hatfield and Michael Jordan were collaborating on the silhouette, both envisioned a pair that could as easily be dressed up in a tuxedo as it could be worn on-court thanks to the beautiful patent leather mudguard and performance-based Cordura mesh upper. But what happens to the Air Jordan 11 when you replace the traditional materials with a bolstered suede?

While we still don’t have a release date for the Air Jordan 11 “Suede”, we do know that it will be the latest model to demand a $400 USD price point joining the likes of other Premium and Pinnacle offerings. The Air Jordan 11 Suede features a luxurious Cool Grey suede upper for a monochromatic finish perfect for any occasion while an off-white Sail midsole and outsole combination ditch the traditional icy tint for a change of pace. Expect this Air Jordan 11 Suede offering to arrive at retailers this Holiday 2016 season and check out more Jordan release dates while you wait for more info.

Author’s Take

This silhouette is one my favorite sneakers, but, this colorway isn?t that appealing in my view. I?m not a fan of the colors and I guess it?s a good thing this is limited to GS pairs only.

It really reminded me of the Saint Laurent high-tops when I first saw this style. I like the clean design and overall colorway, but, I’m not too keen on it.

I?m not really into the low-cut design, but, this pair is an appealing colorway. Hopefully we?ll see the olive detailing once more detailed images arise.

Additional Images Of The Air Jordan 11 Suede

The 2016 Holiday season will be bringing us the return of the Air Jordan 11 Space Jam. But according to rumors (and leaked pictures) that may not be the only Air Jordan 11 to release before the end of the year.

We’re also expected to see a premium suede pair of Jordan 11s hit retailers some time during the holiday season. Pictured above, this Air Jordan 11 features a full suede upper done in Cool Grey with a white midsole and milky translucent outsole. It’s important to note that this Air Jordan 11 doesn’t have the usual embroidered “23” on the heel or the “Jordan Jumpman” wording on the tongue.

No exact release date is known yet but this premium Air Jordan 11 is expected to retail for $400. Are you looking forward to picking up a pair? Stay tuned to Kicks On Fire for updates.

Author’s Take

For me to spend $400 on a shoe would take A LOT. I like the Air Jordan 11, but I don’t feel that this colorway justifies the $400 price tag. I’ll be fine I can get my hands on a pair of Space Jams.

Outdoor Shots Of The Air Jordan 11 Suede

The Air Jordan 11 Suede still has no release date, but based on all these early looks we’ve been getting lately, I wouldn’t be surprised if something official comes from Jordan Brand within the next few week. These latest images of the Jordan 11 Suede takes the shoe outside for some fresh air to help us see the shoe from a different light.

New images of the Jordan 11 Suede give us a pretty good understanding of what the shoe will end up looking like. Taking the tonal and minimal route, the shoe is done in a Grey suede upper. The Grey suede construction also includes the toe and mudguard region, which happens to be an area that 99.9% of all Jordan 11s come with patent leather on. It may take some time to get used to this construction, but I’m pretty sure Jordan 11 loyalists will soon come around. Additional premium features on the shoe include the embossed Jumpman branding and the leather quilted insoles. A White midsole and translucent milky outsole create contrast and round out the main features of the shoe. Priced at $400, do you see yourself picking up a pair once these drop? Let us know in the comments below.

Author’s Take

Aside from the price tag being a little too high for me, I?m just not satisfied with the overall look of the shoe. What if Jordan Brand had decided to keep the patent leather on the toe/mudguard instead of making the entire shoe a suede. There?s a thought, right?
