Author’s Take:

Renz Ofiaza, News: One of the better iterations of the sneaker in my opinion, even though it’s only in all-black. I like the material makeup and obviously since this is a collab with Drake, it’ll be highly sought after. I’d rank this second to the PSNY collab. The white pair is pretty nice also.

Air Jordan 31 Shattered Backboard

Release Date: October 1, 2016
Price: $185

The Air Jordan 4 Premium Ginger Boots Up This October (Video)

The Air Jordan 4 Premium Ginger is booty. No, I don’t mean it in the same way that The New Days uses the word, but rather the look and feel of this upcoming high-end Jordan Brand release has a booty feel to it. Like it took its inspiration from classic work boots of the past and present to give it a tougher and more rugged appearance. The year 2016 has seen the Air Jordan 4 return in both an OG style but also to places, materials and prices that we never imagined. Time will tell if this new pair of 4s will be another hit that empties our wallet or if the sneaker community has had enough booty in their lives. Like Booty-Os cereal, although that’s far from booty.

This looks a lot like a military boot. Also, $225 for this? I?m not sure what Jordan Brand was thinking when they created this boot.
