Heres A Preview Of Air Jordan Retros Releasing In Spring 2017

Jordan Brand has their earliest releases of 2017 already planned out and we’re here to give you a quick rundown of what’s in store for the Jumpman’s Spring 2017. February always marks a special time in the release slate, as Nike plans a number of special edition “All-Star” colorways alongside a number of retros. 2017’s All-Star festivities will bring a special Air Jordan 6 colorway commemorating all of Michael Jordan’s accomplishments in the ASG on February 17th. The following weekend the Air Jordan 12 “Playoff” will release in a new low-top form. Late February and March brings both an Air Jordan 8 and Air Jordan 6 release, each described as “Alternate” which could continue Jordan’s revisionist’s history on sample colorways that could’ve released back in the 1990s. The March Madness celebration kicks off in March with an Air Jordan 12 Low “Georgetown” release as well. Check out all of the release dates below and while we don’t have any preview images just yet, expect more updates in the future right here on Sneaker News.

A Closer Look At The Air Jordan 1 Bred Releasing In September


Jordan Brand’s introduction of the Air Jordan XXX1 turned heads because of the Swoosh branding throughout inspired by the Air Jordan 1. While the performance model pays homage to Michael Jordan’s classic first silhouette over three decades later, there’s still nothing like the original which is why we’re so excited for September’s Air Jordan 1 “Bred” release. The remastered upper features a beautiful tumbled leather throughout in Black and Varsity Red while the iconic ‘Wings’ branding and ‘Nike Air’ stitching on the tongue transports us back to 1985 with ease. The iconic Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG “Bred” will be available at retailers on September 3rd for $160. Check out more of the premium details after the break and be sure to head to our Jordan release dates page for more of the latest Jumpman updates.

Air Jordan 2 4 Air Jordan 2 2 Air Jordan 2 5 Air Jordan 2 1 Air Jordan 2 Air Jordan 2 3

This luxe/lifestyle rendition of the Air Jordan 2 is simply a tribute to this year?s popular world streetball tournament, which is held every summer in Paris, France since its inception in 2003.

I?m biased towards this color scheme and this should get the attention it deserves. The value is a lot higher since it?s an overseas exclusive only.

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

This OG colorway of the Air Jordan 5 is revived for summer 2016, as even more images of the highly-anticipated silhouette are featured once again.

Placing an emphasis on its overall build, the basketball sneaker inherits a black nubuck upper and midsole unit, while accents of grey adorn the signature netting and reflective tongue, alongside shimmering silver accents prominent on the shark teeth-inspired component on the midsole, which also incorporates subtle black speckling to pronounce its stealthy profile. Other notable elements include the classic ?Nike Air? logo across its heel, unlike the typical Jumpman logo, in addition to pops of fire red seen on the tongue and lace locks for more vibrance.

Rounded out with an icy blue translucent outsole and a visible air bubble unit in the heel, you can purchase the silhouette at select JB and Nike stores on Saturday, July 23 for a price tag of $220.

Hyper Jade Highlights The Latest Air Jordan 1 High

Air Jordan 1 Air Jordan 1 1 Air Jordan 1 2 Air Jordan 1 3 Air Jordan 1 4 Air Jordan 1 5

The iconic Air Jordan 1 High is treated in a vibrant summer-appropriate colorway that’s reminiscent of the limited edition Diamond Supply Co. x Nike SB Dunk High Tiffany or low-top that first released back in 2005.

Simply draped the same color scheme, bright teal is prominent on its textile underlays, such as the toe box and side panels, which is also prominent on the tongue branding and collar section. Instead of black, dark green leather overlays solidify its makeup, while a shimmering silver swoosh further pronounces the profile, while also mimics the dunk iteration.

All resting atop a crisp white midsole unit and dark green-colored outsole to cap it off, a GP size of the silhouette is featured, and it’s currently available at select Nike and JB retailers for a price tag of $70.

Author’s Take

Seeing this on the AJ 1 is alright to me. The colorway is a classic combo and I feel one of the best iterations on the Dunk silhouette ever. I?m sure these will get a lot of attention.

Air Jordan 1 1 Air Jordan 1 Air Jordan 1 2 Air Jordan 1 3

With Russell Westbrook confirming the return of the banned Air Jordan 1, this latest gallery strictly places an emphasis on remastered variation’s details.

Essentially sporting the favorable and iconic black and red color scheme, the basketball sneaker is comprised of premium leather with the distinguishable elements evidenced by the ?Nike Air? branding implemented on the tongue. Unfortunately, unlike the 2011 iteration, this particular take won’t feature the distinctive ?X? detailing on the heel.

Further detailed with the iconic wings logo across its ankles, fans can expect to purchase a pair at select JB and Nike accounts on September 3 for $160.

Michael Jordan Talks About The Banned Air Jordan 1

Michael Jordan

With the unveiling of the Air Jordan 31 set to debut later today, Michael Jordan recently shared his thoughts on the banned Air Jordan 1 that he first wore in the league back in 1985.

“It’s like a young kid when your parents say you can’t do something, and they wanna do it,” Jordan said. “I felt like I wanted to be different, and the league said, ‘Well, we’ve gotta stop that.'”

The silhouette’s iconic “Bred” theme has since been an inspiration to countless silhouettes throughout the years and the theme is also evident on the forthcoming Air Jordan 31.

Stay tuned for its reveal.

Air Jordan 5 5 Air Jordan 5 4 Air Jordan 5 3 Air Jordan 5 2 Air Jordan 5 1

In a few days we’ll be seeing the return of a true classic with the release of the Air Jordan 5 OG 90 Black/Metallic Silver.

This Air Jordan 5 starts off with a Black nubuck upper and it then hit with Fire Red detailing on the branding on the tongue and the lace locks. Metallic Silver then appears on the shark teeth on the midsole as well as on the 3M tongue. Other details include the clear mesh netting on the side panels, Nike Air on the heels, and an icy blue translucent outsole.

Releasing in Men’s ($220), GS ($160), PS ($80), and TD ($60), will you be picking up a pair on July 23rd? Click and bookmark our official Air Jordan 5 OG 90 Black/Metallic Silver 2016 launch page now for more images, info and release details.

Author’s Take

The quality on this Air Jordan 5 doesn?t even look all that great so I don?t think that $220 price tag is justifiable. I?ve always wanted this colorway of the Air Jordan 5, but I?ll have to pass on these.

Michael Jordan Speaks On The NBA Banning His Air Jordans

Over thirty years ago, Nike unleashed the Air Jordan 1 to the world, much to the chagrin of the NBA.

This short video serves as MJ’s personal reflection of the historic “banned” Air Jordan 1 as well as a precursor to the Jordan 31 debut tomorrow, so check out the short clip ahead and stay tuned for tomorrow’s big reveal.
