The minute I saw that the Air Jordan 3 Cyber Monday was going to drop, I knew instantly that the all-Black shoe was a perfect canvas for customs. The shoe dropped a couple weeks ago, and I’ve already seen a handful of pretty sweet customs. One that managed to stand out the most was this Air Jordan 3 Wings created by Astrotorf Customs. Not too long ago, we saw him do his thing on the Air Jordan 5 Wings custom, now he’s back at it again using the same Wings pattern on the Jordan 3.

The Jordan 3 Wings is inspired by the Jordan 12 Wings. Just like the 12 Wings, most of the shoe comes in the original Black leather base. The magic in the custom lies in the Black and Gold Wings pattern placed on the mudguard. The Black and Gold Wings pattern is actually stencil work created by D-Nice Customs made especially for the Air Jordan 3 model. The rest of the shoe remains untouched, the only other upgrade would be the removal of the original laces in favor of the leather laces to help give it more of a premium look and feel. Simple, yet very dope! Be sure to check out Astrotorf Custom’s IG here and see what else he’s been working on.

P.S. The shoe you see above is for sale. It’s a 10.5. Hit up Astrotorf Custom’s IG here to see how you can own the pair.

With Jordan Brand scheduled to bring back the Air Jordan 11 Space Jam on December 10th, you can bet that Jordan Brand is going to milk the hell out of the colorway until that day arrives. In other words, expect lots and lots of Team Jordan and Jordan Brand sneakers to release in the “Space Jam colorway. One of the first models to do so, is the Jordan 1 Flight 4 Space Jam. Yea, I don’t know.

Although it does not use much mesh, patent leather or an icy sole, the Jordan 1 Flight 4 does share a few similarities with the Jordan 11 Space Jam. These include the Black (leather) upper and the Blue (Dark Concord) hits used for the branding, which also happens to include the Jumpman on the side of the heel. Although it’s not really a substitute for the real thing, how many of you would be down to rock a pair.

Jordan Brand will be releasing a brand new Wool colorway of the Air Jordan 3 as a part their 2016 Holiday Collection.

The Air Jordan 3 Wool is done in an all-wool upper, similar to the Air Jordan 12 Wool that released earlier this year. Done in a dark shade of Grey, the shoe gets a tonal look by also having the laces, branding and lining done in the same color scheme. Adding some contrast is the Sail colored sole unit placed below.

Expect to see this Air Jordan 3 at select retailers on December 17, 2016 for $200. Stay tuned to Kicks On Fire for updates.

Antonio Brown and the Steelers may not be playing this upcoming weekend, but that didn’t stop him from showing us a preview of his latest custom cleat work. The wide receive has already taken the time to pay tribute to legends such as Arnold Palmer and Muhammad Ali, now he look to pay homage to a living legend, Michael Jordan.

The latest custom cleats show hand-drawn pictures of the GOAT on both lateral sides of the Nike Alpha Pros cleats. Rocking a Blue based upper, the cleats pay homage to Jordan during his time with his alma mater, UNC. The custom cleats even came with little Jumpman figures on the toe. Will he decide to wear these during warm-ups in the near future? Who know, I guess we’ll have to wait and see.

I?m not even sure if the women will like this colorway. Jordan Brand should have never made these.

When it comes to an Air Jordan sneaker it doesn’t get much more “premium” than a retail price of $400. Whether the shoe is actually worth $400 is another topic of discussion.

The Air Jordan 4 will be releasing in yet another premium iteration this weekend when it hits select retailers in this Ginger colorway. Featuring a premium leather upper that has been given the tonal look as a Ginger/Wheat hue has been applied all throughout. Leather laces, perforation detailing, a quilted leather insole, and a rubber gum outsole are a few of the details that are included in this Air Jordan 4.

Will you be dishing out $400 to get your hands on a pair tomorrow?

I love the Air Jordan 4 but I find it hard to justify spending $400 on this colorway. Not saying I would never spend $400, but it’s gonna take a lot more than a “wheat” colorway for me to do that.

While its suggested release date stateside is scheduled for December 23, the Air Jordan 1 High OG Storm Blue is currently set to make its debut at select stockists overseas first starting November 1.

Also nicknamed, “Kentucky,” the timeless silhouette is essentially draped in a simplistic two-tone colorway of white and the defining hue of storm blue throughout its premium leather construction. Nike Air branding adorns the tongue and insoles, while the signature wings logo is evidenced across its ankles to finish off its overall details.

The featured pair consists of its GS sizing, although, retail price for adult sizes are listed at $160.

Jordan Brand continues to push the boundaries of their retro catalog this weekend thanks to the release of a brand new Air Jordan 4 Premium that plans to take Hender Scheme’s unofficial homage to Mike’s fourth signature silhouette to task. The Air Jordan 4 Ginger will release this Saturday, October 29th featuring a premium leather construction, an updated hangtag, and Gum Yellow accents with a luxurious price point of $400 USD.

Fans of the Air Jordan 4 already know that the Jumpman’s Pinnacle and Premium imprints have seen success and have no problem paying more than double the price of original retros. The attention to detail, quality craftsmanship, and unique colorways have all been a refreshing update to the lifestyle tendencies of the signature Jordan line, and what better way to celebrate the Fall/Winter 2016 season than with a “Wheat” like aesthetic? The Air Jordan 4 Ginger also features a luxurious quilted insole, boot-inspired laces, and a simplified Jumpman branding on the tongue that skips out on the original ‘Flight’ stitching.

Check out one last detailed look at the Air Jordan 4 Ginger and know that this pair will be available at select retailers like Rock City Kicks, Nike.com, and on eBay.

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.

Aside from the AJ 3 GS Dark Purple, the Air Jordan 4 Premium Ginger will be offered this weekend as well to highlight JB’s latest offerings for Fall 2016.

Flaunting more lifestyle appeal, the model is suggested to evoke the iconic Timberland workboot with its tonal tan finish. The sneaker dons a luxe makeover composed of smooth and tumbled leather, while distinguishable details include matching laces, Jumpman branding located on the tongue, heel and outsole, as well as a special hang tag. Finally, a versatile and complementing gum outsole unit finishes off the sleek monochromatic profile.

Priced at $400, you can buy a pair at select JB and Nike stockists worldwide starting this Saturday, October 29th.

It?s a good looking pair. I?m all for tonal iterations and this colorway just looks great on the silhouette. The construction looks solid as well.

Even though the Air Jordan Horizon didn’t make the splash that Jordan Brand was hoping for, they continue to release new colorways of the lifestyle silhouette.

The latest version of the Air Jordan Horizon Low features a unique two-tone build on the upper that starts off with leather on the toe and converts to wool on the heel/ankle. This colorway comes in a full Dark Grey upper with Metallic Silver detailing on the upper eyelets and branding. A black midsole and outsole completes the look on this Air Jordan Horizon Low that can be purchased at select Jordan Brand retailers now for $180.

Author’s Take

I think Jordan Brand expected to have the same success with the Horizon that they had with the Jordan Future a couple of years back. But as we can all see it didn’t pan out that way. I think that 13 sole just throws everything off.

Jordan Brand has been bringing back the Air Jordan 1 in a plethora of awesome colorways throughout 2016. Not only have we received new inspirations found in the archives of Michael Jordan’s illustrious career like the Air Jordan 1 Reverse Shattered Backboard, but such classics as the Air Jordan 1 Banned and Air Jordan 1 Black Toe have or will be released in the near future. Now another original colorway straight from 1985 is coming back with the return of the Air Jordan 1 Storm Blue, and it might hit retail shelves sooner than expected.

The Air Jordan 1 “Storm Blue” was originally pinned down for a December 23rd release date with the original royal blue shade contrasting a crisp white base for a look perfect for Kentucky Wildcat fans out there. An original lifestyle colorway of the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG, the Storm Blue colorway has only been previewed in grade school sizes thus far, but now shops in Europe are reporting a November 1st release date. Solebox is notorious for dropping Jordan retros earlier than expected, but what this means for a stateside release still remains unclear.

In the meantime, check out more photos of the Air Jordan 1 Storm Blue and let us know if you plan on grabbing a pair by taking your thoughts to the comments section. As always, stay tuned for more of the latest Jordan release dates right here on Sneaker News.
