Following an initial look, a full overview of the Air Jordan 3 Wool is finally revealed, as the model is suggested to be in JB’s standout Holiday 2016 lineup that also includes another variation of the silhouette with the AJ 3 Cyber Monday.

While it’s been listed as dark grey, the defining woolen component across its upper seems to emit a more dark navy hue in this latest gallery. Evoking more lifestyle flair and functionality, due to it cohesive textile fiber construction providing more warmth during the colder months ahead, the understated hue is nicely contrasted by a sail white rubber sole unit to cap off the simple two-tone design.

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

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.

The return of the classic Air Jordan 1 Bred/Banned colorway, which first debuted in 1985, will be making its way to store shelves soon, as more images of the remastered silhouette continue to be revealed.

Renowned for violating the league?s uniform code with a $5,000 fine when worn on the court, the model is essentially colored in a combination of black and red across its premium leather composition. While this pair mimics the 1985 counterpart, it does not incorporate the distinctive ?X? detailing on the heel which was seen on the 2011 iteration. Although, the classic ?Nike Air? branding is implemented on the tongue as well.

Topped off with a clean white midsole unit, red outsole and the iconic wings logo across its ankles, you can buy this pair at select JB and Nike accounts on September 3 for a price tag of $160.

I?m all tonal finishes and I?m a fan of the sneaker in general. The build is solid as well and this should get some attention. I?m not that inclined on purchasing though.

In celebration of the 2016 Summer Olympics which is currently being held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, the newly-introduced Air Jordan 31 is rendered in a new colorway that essentially pays homage to the host nation.

Treated in the country?s traditional Rio colors, vibrant green and blue is essentially prominent across its flyweave and synthetic leather upper, while it’s nicely offset by a crisp white midsole unit and icy translucent outsole. Other notable details include enlarged Jumpman branding on the heel, alongside more branding on the tongue and bottom

I?m not really against the shoe?s design. I?m a fan of the simple makeup but the large Jumpman bothers me a little bit. This is a nice commemorative colorway though.

What is that, velvet? As a matter of fact, yes, yes it is! What you see above is the first image of a GS colorway placed on the Air Jordan 1 High. Said to be a part of  the Heiress Collection, the Jordan 1 comes draped in a smooth velvet upper to give the classic model a smooth and lush motif.

The shoe comes constructed out of velvet and suede and done in a tonal Maroon/Burgundy colorway.  Seeing suede is nothing new on this model, but the star of the shoe is definitely the use of suede placed certain parts of the upper. Giving the shoe some nice contrast is the Metallic Gold noted on the branding. A White midsole and more Maroon takes care of the outsole. Said to be releasing later on this year, GS footers won’t have to wait much longer to pick up a pair.

The long wait for the 2016 Summer Olympics is finally over as the opening ceremony takes place today which will be followed by the first day of competition tomorrow.

To kickoff the international celebration Jordan Brand will be launching a new colorway of the Air Jordan 7. Known as the Tinker Alternate colorway, this Air Jordan 7 was originally designed by Tinker Hatfield at the same time he created the original Olympic colorway. Michael Jordan had the option to choose from the two designs and he ultimately went with the Olympic pair. The Air Jordan 7 Tinker Alternate uses the patriotic color scheme of white, red and blue and also ads hits of gold that provide a nice pop.

The entire family will be able to pick up their pair on August 6th for a retail price of $190 for men, $140 for GS, $80 for PS, and $60 for TD.

The Air Jordan 1 has long-since been a staple of anyone’s footwear rotation. The iconic silhouette will go down in history as one of the pairs that birthed the modern day sneaker industry for its head turning “Banned” colorway, Michael Jordan’s on-court exploits, and the fact that it was the first in the signature Jumpman series. It’s transitioned flawlessly into the lifestyle realm as a status symbol of fashion statement. This weekend, Jordan Brand will pay homage to that lineage with the Jordan 1 Premium Essentials Pack due out Saturday, August 6th.

The Air Jordan 1 High “Premium Essentials” takes the model and gives it two simple, understated high-contrast colorways in either White/Black or Black/White. It’s hard to believe that Jordan Brand didn’t release these offerings earlier in the three-decade span of Jordan 1 dominance. Each pair will retail for $160 USD and feature classic ‘Nike Air’ branding on the tongue in red for a standout feature.

The Jordan 1 Premium Essentials is available right now on eBay.

Team USA takes on China tomorrow August 6th at 6:00 PM, so what better way to celebrate than with the timely release of the Jordan 7 Olympic Alternate? This Olympic season, Jordan Brand decided to skip over the pair actually worn by Michael Jordan during the 1992 Barcelona Games for an alternate sample created by Tinker Hatfield that never released, until now.

The Air Jordan 7 “Olympic Alternate” features a Deep Royal Blue shade throughout the upper that more closely resembles this year’s Team USA Nike Basketball uniforms than any other kit that preceded it. A white tumbled leather base adds a premium Remastered feel to the offering while Metallic Gold Coin lands on the Jumpman branding throughout in honor of the team’s pursuit of gold. A unique gradient midsole adds speckling throughout in Fire Red while a bold American flag graphic features Mike’s Olympic number 9 on the heel.

Are you a fan of Saturday’s Jordan 7 Olympic Alternate? Check out more photos below and if you can’t wait until then, know that you can find your pair right now on eBay.
