An Air Jordan 13 Pure Money Will Make Its Debut Next Year

So let me get this straight. Not only is it being rumored that an Air Jordan 4 Pure Money is releasing next year, but there’s also been talks saying that an Air Jordan 7 Pure Money could also be making a debut in 2017. Now we have word that an Air Jordan 13 Pure Money could also have the potential to be releasing next year?! Damn, it looks like a whole lot of all-White Jordans could end up dropping next year.

Although no official word or images of the Jordan 13 Pure Money have been provided, we’re assuming that this pair will also come in all-White fashion accented by strategically placed Metallic Silver hits. It’s hard to talk about a shoe when you don’t know what it looks like, but just know that this all-White Air Jordan 13 could very well be releasing next year. Excited for this release? Let us know in the comments below.

I’m curious to see what the shoe looks like. It has potential, but it could also end up being just “another” Jordan Brand release.

Grade School Sneakerheads Get Blessed With The Air Jordan 12 GS Barons

jordan 12 barons jordan 12 barons 2 jordan 12 barons 1

Jordan Brand took a time machine and traveled back about 20 years to find the inspiration for this colorway of the Air Jordan 12.

Unofficially known as the Barons colorway, it is heavily believed that this Air Jordan 12 is inspired by the minor league baseball team that MJ played for in the mid 90’s. This grade school Air Jordan 12 comes equipped with a White tumbled leather upper and Wolf Grey detailing on the mudguard, outsole, and heel. Hits of Black complete the Barons theme by being placed on the upper eyelets, and the branding on the midsole, tongue, and heel.

You’ll be able to purchase a pair on August 13, 2016 for $140. Make sure you click and bookmark our Air Jordan 12 GS Barons launch page for the latest images, release information and important updates.

Decent colorway of the Air Jordan 12 but there?s nothing about it that makes me feel like I need it. I?ll pass on these.

Will The Air Jordan Kobe Pack Ever Release (Video)

Earlier this year, Jordan Brand celebrated the career of Kobe Bryant with an amazing collection of Air Jordans made just for The Black Mamba. Well, most of them were made just for the Black Mamba. A pair of Jordans, the Air Jordan 3 and Air Jordan 8 to be more specific, that Kobe actually wore during the 2002-03 NBA season during his sneaker free agency got a slightly wider release. And by slightly wider release, we mean that the two-pack made their way to a very exclusive club of celebrities and friends of the program complete with special packaging.

With a box set that looks like it was made for a retail release at some point, we have yet to hear word if sneakerheads will ever get a chance to cop the white, purple and Laker gold Jordans. Such a unique place in Jordan Brand and Kobe’s history will forever be desired by the community, but will the trigger ever be pulled for what will surely be an instant sell out no matter how much or little they make? Time will tell and hopefully this video will remind Nike of what the people want.

For more information on this hopeful release, stay tuned to our Air Jordan Kobe Pack launch page for all latest news, images, videos and more.

The closer I take a look at both pairs the more I like the white one better than the black. I still wouldn’t buy a pair for $150 though.

This looks more like a Nike Dunk than an Air Jordan 1. I’ll pass on these and just wait for the Bred 1s instead.

Jack The Ripper Covers The Air Jordan 3 Kobe PE In Python And Elephant

AIr Jordan 31 AIr Jordan 3 2 AIr Jordan 3 3 AIr Jordan 3 4 AIr Jordan 3 5 AIr Jordan 3 6 AIr Jordan 3 7

After finding out earlier this year that Jordan Brand created the Air Jordan Kobe Pack that featured the Air Jordan 3 and Air Jordan 8 in Lakers colorways, we were all excited hoping that maybe we would be able to get our hands on a pair. But as more and more time passes it’s starting to feel like they were only given out to friends and family of the brand.

Sneaker customizer Jack The Ripper decided to take matters into his own hands and created an extremely luxurious version of the Air Jordan 3 Kobe PE. This custom Air Jordan 3 that we see above features a matte white python upper with genuine elephant placed on the toecap and heel. A gold lamb liner and additional gold accents on the tongue branding provide a pop while hits of purple complete the Lakers theme. Additional details include purple suede insoles which have “1996-2016″ printed in gold to commemorate the Black Mamba’s amazing 20 year career in the NBA, and Nike Air heel tabs provided by @beat2heatrestorations. This Air Jordan 3 Kobe PE custom will be releasing in October via Jack The Ripper’s web store.

What are your thoughts? Are you feeling this custom Air Jordan 3 covered in python or do you prefer the original?

Author’s Take

Wow! These are so nice that I don’t think that I would even wear them. I would just put them up on display in my room. Great custom by Jack The Ripper!

Two Unique Styles Of The Air Jordan 1 Release Tomorrow


Jordan Brand continues its expansion into casual wear with two brand new styles of the Air Jordan 1 slated to release this Saturday, August 13th. The Jordan 1 Deconstructed aims at taking the simple design of Michael Jordan’s first signature silhouette and revamping it to near Chuck Taylor-like proportions. Not only are the numerous leather panels ditched, but an AJKO-like aesthetic graces the one-piece canvas upper while stitching makes up the Swoosh branding and pays homage to the original contours. Both a black and off-white Sail colorway are available for $123 USD.

The Air Jordan 1 High Ultra takes a different route, adding a high-top inner sock liner for a lockdown fit to add a touch of futurism to the classic 1985 icon. Not only does the upper ditch the traditional leather for a ventilated mesh, but new rope laces match the overhauled look. A simple White/Metallic Gold Coin and Black/Ghost Green will be available for $150 USD. Which pair do you prefer? Be sure to check out more detailed photos after the break and know that shops like Packer Shoes will be stocking each colorway this Saturday.

The Air Jordan 12 GS Barons is set to make its arrival this weekend, as it’ll be the newest grade school variation of the silhouette this summer.

Dipped in a white/grey colorway, the palette is reminiscent of MJ?s days with the Birmingham Barons in 1994, which is essentially a minor league baseball team and Double-A affiliate of the Chicago White Sox major-league club. Offsetting the clean design are hits of black implemented on the upper eyelets, tongue, miniature branded side panels, heel tabs and branding on the rear to solidify its overall build.

Retailing for $140 (4.5y ? 9.5y) ? Pre-school (10.5c ? 3y) and Toddler (3c ? 10c) sizes will also go for $80 and $60, respectively.

Hits of red adorn the tongue, outsole and eyelets to further pronounce its build, as the classic ?Nike Air? branding is applied on the insoles and back heel tab to round out its makeup.

Retailing for $220, you can buy this standout pair at select Nike and JB retailers starting Black Friday, November 25th.

The 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, concludes on the August 21st, but right before that day, this special edition Air Jordan 5 will be offered to commemorate the global sporting event.

Evoking the spirit of champions, as well as the first-place medals, the silhouette’s defining metallic gold element is simply prominent on the tongue, lace lock and the shark tooth-inspired component across its midsole unit. Flaunting a pristine white leather upper overall, the sneaker?s remainder is topped off with tonal black on the midsole unit and inner lining, alongside an icy translucent outsole.

You can buy this pair at select Nike and JB retailers on August 20th for a price tag of $190.
