An Air Jordan 4 Wheat Is Releasing

The Air Jordan 4 has been privy to a number of different reworkings over the last couple of years. The 11Lab4 welcomed a seamless, molded upper in patent leather, while the “Premium” joints saw the Tinker design get upgrades in pony hair, snakeskin, and soon, quilted leather. It appears that this next Air Jordan 4 is going for something a bit grittier, with a work-boot style “Wheat” offering that winter wearability that should make these a huge hit in any region that experiences harsher climates. All that’s revealed is this teaser image of the upper, which shows a perforated midfoot panel in place of the signature netting. Get a look at the teaser ahead.

Foot Lockers New NYC Flagship Store Opening Will Have Jordan And NMD Restocks


It’s apparently a big month for new sneaker retail locations in New York City. We’ve already seen the opening of the new adidas Originals flagship store in Soho and just last week was the grand opening of the new Footaction Flight 23 location on 14th Street, and now Foot Locker is ready to open the doors to their giant new flagship location on 34th Street. For some added incentive to check out the space, Foot Locker will be restocking a number of the years most sought-after Jordan retros and adidas NMD colorways, so if you’re in the NYC area, make sure to stop by Tuesday, August 30th to see what you can pick up. Check out a preview video of the new Foot Locker flagship below.

Complete Release Info For The Air Jordan 1 Banned


We’re only a few days way from the release of the must-have sneaker of Fall 2016 – the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG “Banned” on September 3rd, 2016 for $160 USD. It’s been nearly three years since we last saw the iconic colorway of the Air Jordan 1 release at retailers, but unlike its 2013 predecessor, this year’s Air Jordan 1 Banned release will be available at plenty of retailers ranging from nationwide releases at Footaction, Finishline, Foot Locker, Eastbay, and will most certainly make an appearance at your local sneaker boutique.

The Air Jordan 1 Banned retro utilizes a luxurious tumbled leather on the toe and Swoosh side panel branding, a detail that fits right in with the Jumpman’s Remastering initiative and more closely resembles the 1985 offering than any past retro release. The ‘Nike Air’ branding is back on the tongue and also on the freshly implemented white insole to keep things as traditional as possible, with the size detailing on inner collar being a direct nod to the ’85 original. Be sure to check out a full on-feet look after the break, and if you can’t wait until the weekend, find your size right now on eBay.

Another Look At The Upcoming Air Jordan 3 Wool

Air Jordan 3 2 Air Jordan 3 1 Air Jordan 3

Following a detailed look of the Air Jordan 3 Wool, which is suggested to be part of JB?s standout Holiday 2016 lineup, lifestyle imagery of the forthcoming silhouette are now featured.

Evoking lifestyle flair and functionality, due to its cohesive textile fiber construction providing more warmth during the colder months ahead, the defining woolen component is essentially prominent across its upper, which is nicely contrasted by a sail white rubber sole unit to cap off the classic yet simple two-tone design.

Retailing for a price tag of $200, fans can expect this pair to debut at select JB and Nike stockists starting December 17th.

Author’s Take

I?m all for applying new materials on classic JB silhouettes. This pair doesn?t look that bad. The colorway is versatile and it?ll be suitable for the colder weather.

So, How Many Pairs Of The Air Jordan 1 High OG Bred Are You Trying To Get

Arguably, the most anticipated release of 2016 is less than one week away. I’m not even going to ask of this is a cop or drop, or if you’re getting a pair. Better yet, my question to you is, how many pairs of the Air Jordan 1 High OG Bred are you getting trying to get your hands on?!

Historically and aesthetically, not many other Jordans can stand toe to toe with the Jordan 1 Bred. Not only was it the first Jordan 1 colorway that Michael Jordan ever wore, the NBA felt the need to ban the damn shoe since it didn’t have enough White on it. Coming in remastered fashion, the Jordan 1 Bred boasts a Red and Black upper done in leather construction. Most of Red leather has that same textured/soft look and feel that we saw on the instant classic Air Jordan 1 Shattered Backboards, while the Black leather appears be nothing out of the ordinary. Nike Air on the tongue, Wings branding on the heel and a White midsole/Red outsole combination complete the OG look of the shoe. Priced at $160 and releasing on September 3rd, please be sure to scope out our Air Jordan 1 High OG Bred (2016) hub page for all the latest new and info regarding next week’s release.

Another Look At The Air Jordan 5 Raptors

Even though the colorway released about three years before the team existed, the original Air Jordan 7 in its iconic black, purple, and red version has gotten stuck with the nickname “Raptors” in the years since thanks to its matching look to the original Toronto Raptors team colors. Historically inaccurate, but the “Raptors” name seems to be here for good on the classic Air Jordan 7.

Now a new Raptors look is on the scene, with the upcoming Air Jordan 5 retro in the same black, purple, and red combination made famous by the OG 7’s. But unfortunately for most of us, it appears only the young ladies get treated to this “Raptors” look on the Air Jordan 5, which will be releasing in grade school girls sizing on September 17th.

The Air Jordan 4 Premium Obsidian Will Finally Release Next Month

Air Jordan 4 Premium Obsidian 1 Air Jordan 4 Premium Obsidian 2 Air Jordan 4 Premium Obsidian 3 Air Jordan 4 Premium Obsidian 4 Air Jordan 4 Premium Obsidian 5 Air Jordan 4 Premium Obsidian 6

Not much info or images regarding the Air Jordan 4 Premium Obsidian has surfaced over the past couple of months, but being that the shoe is now close to releasing, we can expect that to change with the quickness. Releasing next month, let’s take a look at the latest images of the Air Jordan 4 Premium Obsidian.

Considered a Pinnacle rendition of the Air Jordan 4, this premium pair of 4s is definitely not your ordinary pair of Jordan 4s. The shoe starts off with a premium quilted leather upper done in a tonal Obsidian colorway. The netting we’re used to seeing on the side panels is replaced by even more quilted leather stitching. Simply put, the shoe gets a lot of its premium look and feel by the use to lots of different type of stitching placed all over the shoe. Additional features include the embossed Jumpman branding on the heel and leather tongue tag. Leather lining, leather laces and strategically placed hits of Metallic Copper give the shoe that Pinnacle motif. An all-White sole unit seen blow rounds out the look of the shoe. Priced at $400 and releasing on September 17th, be sure to visit out Air Jordan 4 Premium Obsidian hub page as even more image and info on the shoe begin to surface.

Author’s Take

I really like the shoe, but keeping it real, $400 is a bit to steep for me. If for some reason these go down to like $250, I’d scoop up a pair, if not, I’ll keep it moving.

The Air Jordan 1 KO High Obsidian Dropped Today, Did You Come Up On A Pair

Air Jordan 1 KO High OG 1 Air Jordan 1 KO High OG 2 Air Jordan 1 KO High OG 3 Air Jordan 1 KO High OG 4

Just like we thought it was going to happen, the Air Jordan 11 Low Metallic Gold took all the spotlight away from the “other” Air Jordan that dropped today, the Air Jordan 1 KO High Obsidian. Yea, for those who weren’t aware, there was another Air Jordan that released today.

This KO version of the Jordan 1 High comes dressed in a tonal Obsidian upper, making it a very versatile shoe to wear. What differentiates this model from past KO versions is the materials and textures used to create the shoe. Going for more of a lifestyle look, the shoe dons denim overlays paired up with a quilted suede upper that’s soft to the touch. Strategically placed hits of White noted on the sole and branding provide to perfect contrast to the tonal looking shoe. Lastly, metallic bronze eyelets help give the shoe a nice premium feel. Priced at $140, did you decide to pick up a pair? Let us know in the comments below.

The materials used are dope and all, but I (like many) have my eyes on the upcoming Bred 1s!

Who Picked Up A Pair Of The Air Jordan 11 Low Metallic Gold

Air Jordan 11  Low 1 Air Jordan 11  Low 2 Air Jordan 11  Low 3 Air Jordan 11  Low 4

The highly anticipated Air Jordan 11 Low Metallic Gold finally released this morning. Many people were looking forward to this release for the simple fact that it was a Air Jordan with hits of Gold. The fact that it was an Air Jordan 11 made it even more desired. One quick look at all the major retailers online, and it appears as if most sizes ended up selling out. Did you manage to pick up a pair? For those who did, were you satisfied with the quality of the shoe. The reason I ask is because we recently did a KoF Live Unboxing of the shoe and it appears as if some pairs came with a minor defect on them. The video shows that brand new pairs already come with creases on the Metallic Gold toe portion of the shoe. Did yours come with those same creases, or were you in the clear? Overall, what did you think about the shoe? Let us know in the comments below.

Author’s Take

I was on the fence regarding this shoe until the very last minute. I decided not to pick up a pair in hoped of doubling up on the upcoming Bred 1s.

A Glimpse Of The Forthcoming Air Jordan 4 Motorsport

Air Jordan 4 Air Jordan 4 1

While we previously reported that the Air Jordan 4 Motorsport will finally be offered to the general public sometime during Spring 2017, a sneak peek of the purported pair has now surfaced online.

Simply one of the most coveted variations of the silhouette, the model is essentially an alternate variation of the AJ 4 Mars that debuted back in 2006. Royal blue accents are prominent across the sneaker’s profile, which essentially commemorates MJ’s Motorsports team.

With black and white rounding out its entire palette, stay tuned to KicksOnFire for more detailed images and its full reveal once it arises.

Author’s Take

I’ll always be an advocate for this silhouette. I’ve been a fan of the colorway since its introduction and it’s nice to see that it’ll finally be released.

The Air Jordan 12 Black Nylon Drops In Two Weeks

Air Jordan 12 Black Nylon Air Jordan 12 Black Nylon 1

The next variation of the Air Jordan 12 with a nylon/neoprene upper is set to debut soon, as another look of the model is featured.

Unlike the sneaker’s traditional construction, this particular pair is highlighted by its water-resistant build, which also promotes a durable and lighter feel. Dipped in black, its usual leather element is still placed on the forefoot and lateral portion, while hints of red are adorn the signature Jumpman branding across its tongue. Finally, a clean white rubber sole unit finishes off its stealthy makeup.

Priced at $190, you can buy this pair at select Nike and JB retailers starting September 10th.

Author’s Take

Like I shared before, it?ll be interesting to see how this model does. This variation looks really solid. I always wondered if the brand would explore new materials and apply it on classics just to see how it would be received. For example, the utilization of flyknit or engineered mesh as well.

Official Images Of The GS Air Jordan 1 High OG Bred

Official imagery of the Air Jordan 1 High OG Bred in grade school sizing is now featured, as the model is set to make its debut at retailers next weekend.

Interestingly, compared to its adult counterpart, this particular pair inherits a slight different makeup, as it flaunts a smoother leather build unlike the more textured and premium variation of the aforementioned pair. Overall, black and red drapes its entire upper, which is further detailed with the classic ?Nike Air? branding on the tongue and iconic wings logo across its ankles.

All adhered atop a clean white midsole unit and red outsole — adult sizes will retail for $160 and GS sizes are listed at $120. Find it at select Nike and JB stockists on September 3.

The Air Jordan 5 Bronze Arrives Next Month

Air Jordan 5 3 Air Jordan 5 4 Air Jordan 5 5 Air Jordan 5 6 Air Jordan 5 Air Jordan 5 1 Air Jordan 5 2 Air Jordan 5 7 Air Jordan 5 8

Even though the 31st Olympiad has already passed, this particular variation of the Air Jordan 5 is suggested to celebrate the recent 2016 Summer Games which were held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Inspired by the celebratory medals given in award ceremonies, in particular, third place, the bronze element is essentially focalized across its tongue and the signature shark teeth component on its midsole. Composed of leather and synthetics across with a slight sheen for additional flair, the silhouette is rounded out with a white midsole unit and translucent icy blue outsole.

Retailing for $190, you can purchase a pair at select JB and Nike retailers starting Saturday, September 24th.

I?m a fan of the silhouette in general and I think this colorway is pretty solid. The tones work well together and I guess I?m just biased.
