If the $400 price tag doesn’t scare you away, feel free to continue reading. What you see above is this premium version of the Air Jordan 11 set to release this holiday season. Dubbed the Air Jordan 11 Suede, the shoe was made for a special kid through Jordan Brand?s Make-A-Wish experience. Done in an all-suede upper, the shoe was made for a child by the name of Rhome Simpkins. His pair came with his ?RS? initials embossed on the heels. Other features aside from the Grey suede upper include the embossed Jumpman branding on the heel, the leather quilted insoles and the White contrasting midsole. Are you feeling this luxe version of the Jordan 11? If so, are you prepared to pay $400 for them? Let us know what you think 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?

Our First Look At The Air Jordan 4 Royalty

AIR JORDAN 4 ROYALTY 2 aIR jORDAN 4 ROYALTY

Heads up Air Jordan 4 fans, a fresh new colorway is said to be releasing in a few months. Currently known as the Air Jordan 4 Royalty, this clean iteration of the model boasts a timeless Black and Gold colorway. Here’s a first look at the shoe.

The official colorway of the Air Jordan 4 Royalty is currently listed as Black/Metallic Gold and White. Our first look at the shoe suggests that the upper is done in a Black suede, which is something we’ve seen on the model several times in the past. The most noteworthy part of the shoe though, lies in the Metallic Gold hits noted on the eyelets and Jumpman branding on the tongue and heel. A clean White midsole and set of Black laces round out the look of the shoe. Fairly simple in color scheme, but in my opinion Black and Gold sneakers are always a winning combination. Said to be dropping on January 2017, stay tuned as more info begins to surface on the Air Jordan 4 Royalty.

I really like how it looks swooshless. The colorway is pretty appealing as well and it?s a stylish pair in general. I?d prefer wearing this over the gold AJ 6, just because it?s a bit more understated.

Additional preview imagery of this forthcoming Air Jordan 6 Chameleon continue to be unveiled, as it’s suggested to make its official debut next year.

In this latest gallery, the basketball sneaker?s defining aesthetic is essentially evident across its stealthy black leather upper which incorporates an iridescent finish that shifts in colors depending on certain lighting conditions.

It?s suggested that this shimmering element is achieved when rubbed off, a prominent feature that was first found on the Air Jordan 12 Wings. Other notable details include a Jumpman badge embroidery on the heels, 3M reflective accents, iridescent lace tips and the clear translucent outsole also inheriting the iridescent detailing for a truly eye-catching finish.

This standout model is expected to make its debut at select Nike and JB stockists starting February 2017.

The Air Jordan 31 Chicago Draws Inspiration From Michaels Second Home

Air Jordan 31 2 Air Jordan 31 1 Air Jordan 31 3 Air Jordan 31 6 Air Jordan 31 5 Air Jordan 31 4

Earlier this week Jordan Brand released this brand new colorway of the Air Jordan 31 alongside the Air Jordan 1 Black Toe and a restock of the Air Jordan 1 Banned.

Soon after it released we found out that this was the Chicago colorway of the 31 that modeled itself after the OG colorway of the Air Jordan 1. According to Nike, the Air Jordan 31 Chicago reflects on the energy of Michael Jordan?s adopted town ? a city that defined a generation of basketball culture.

?Michael was the third pick in the draft, so he came in with a mentality that he was going to have to prove himself,? recalls Howard White, VP of Jordan Brand. ?Training camp was at the Purple Hotel in Lincolnwood, Illinois and when he arrived to the city, he kept thinking ?this is where I am meant to be?.  His love of being the best, and leading the team, all meshed together. The city of Chicago was looking for a winner, looking for a hero. Some say that when the student is ready, the teacher will appear. So I believe that he wanted to take that challenge of being that for Chicago ? the city that drafted him.?

Michael?s defiant play on the court put Chicago at the center of the basketball universe. His competitive drive was different from any other player on the hardwood. To wit, his love for the game transcended beyond the arena: For Michael, no place represented the game?s freedom like the playground.

?Michael bonded with the kids that played at the 18th and State courts in Chicago. Before every game, he went down there and gave away a few pairs of tickets,? says White. ?Kids would line the streets waiting for their chance to see Michael drive by and the potential opportunity to see him play live.?

The Air Jordan 31 Chicago will get a wide release on November 5, 2016 for a box price of $185. How many of you plan on scooping up a pair?

Author’s Take

Another solid colorway of the Air Jordan 31 in my opinion. I look forward to seeing these in person.
