Come September 3rd, one of the biggest Jordan Brand releases of 2016 will finally be releasing to the public. I’m talking about the Air Jordan 1 High OG Bred! Done in remastered fashion, this version of the Jordan 1 Bred appears to be using very similar leather quality as the Air Jordan 1 Shattered Backboard that dropped last year. The Red leather appears to have more of a tumble/texture compared to the smoother looking Black leather on the shoe. Nike branding appears on the tongue, while the traditional White/Red combination is placed on the midsole/outsole. Releasing on September 3rd for $160, how many of you are looking forward to picking up a pair? Or two?

I?ve never owned a pair of Jordan 1 Breds. This is definitely one of the few Jordan retros that are on my ?must-buy? list. Really looking forward to this release.

Although not much hype has been surrounding the upcoming Air Jordan 5 GS Wolf Grey release, the shoe has crept up on us and is actually releasing this weekend! With the Air Jordan 5 Olympic, Air Jordan 11 Low Metallic Gold and Air Jordan 1 Bred dropping in the next few weeks, it’s easy to see why not many people are talking about this release. With that being said, it’s still a solid colorway to pick up. With the shoe dropping in a few day, let’s take a look at the latest images of the upcoming release.

Made in GS sizes only, the Air Jordan 5 GS Wolf Grey is dressed in a Wolf Grey upper accented by the hits of Black placed in areas such as the tongue, midsole, laces and lining. Additional features include the speckling on the midsole, icy translucent outsole, clear netting and White Jumpman on the tongue. Is this release going to be a sleeper? Priced at $140 and releasing on August 20th, let us know if you’re going to pick up a pair.

You can be forgiven if you’ve already forgotten that another Air Jordan 5 is dropping in a few weeks. That’s ok, we’ve all been there. With so many highly anticipated releases coming at an amazing rate, including nearly 20 adidas NMDs, the Air Jordan 5 Olympic and the Air Jordan 11 Low Metallic Gold, it’s easy to overlook retros that might not be getting all the hype at the moment. But don’t say we didn’t warn you when we say this might be one of the most underrated Jordan retros of 2016 with its unique style and bronze accents that’s slowly gaining momentum as a go-to embellishment on today’s sneakers.

What feud? There have been rumors swirling about Eminem plotting to diss Drake from Slaughterhouse artist Joe Budden for quite some time, but that all ended Tuesday night when Drake made a stop in Detroit on his Summer Sixteen Tour and brought out the legendary emcee. The two performed their 2009 hit “Forever” while wearing Air Jordan 4s. Both artists have lasting partnerships with Jordan Brand and Drake even opted to wear Eminem’s incredibly limited Carhartt Air Jordan 4. Eminem opted for a clean pair of White/Cement 4s instead of taking the stage in any of Drizzy’s OVO collaborative efforts. We’ll have to see how this one-sided Joe Budden vs Drake feud all plays out, but for now, Drake paid homage to one of the greatest emcees of all time by bringing him out in his hometown. Smart.

You can?t go wrong with a pair. The construction and colorway is pretty solid. I?m just a fan of the palette and this is a clean-looking pair overall.

After the Air Jordan 12 “Wolf Grey” made exclusively in gradeschool sizing left many adults wishing Jordan Brand would have expanded the size range, the kids get another excellent Air Jordan sporting the same grey shade to make the rest of us jealous. Not to be confused with the original “Wolf Grey” Air Jordan 5 from 2011, the same nickname is back on the fifth Jordan signature shoe for this kids-exclusive colorway featuring a crackle-textured upper and black accents. Unfortunately, adults will have to gaze upon this latest look at the Air Jordan 5 with envy, but smaller-footed sneakerheads can pick these up this Saturday, August 20th at Jordan brand purveyors like Renarts.

If the gold used on the tongue didn?t have the glossy/patent leather look I would have definitely copped these. It?s still a nice shoe but I?m not a fan of the metallic looking tongue.

Still months away from its expected release, even more images of the forthcoming Air Jordan 6 Pinnacle, that is reminiscent of Spike Lee?s Oscars are featured.

Suggested to drop sometime this Holiday 2016 as part of JB’s extensive lineup, the basketball sneaker is essentially defined by its luxe tone covering the entire upper in shimmering finish. Gold lace locks, in addition to beige-colored laces and tongue complement the eye-catching design, as the profile is topped off with pristine white gracing the heel tab, tongue and midsole unit.
