Two More Colorways On The New Jordan Super.Fly 5

Jordan Super.Fly 5 Jordan Super.Fly 5 1 Jordan Super.Fly 5 2 Jordan Super.Fly 5 3 Jordan Super.Fly 5 4 Jordan Super.Fly 5 5

While its official unveiling revealed three variations, the newly-introduced Jordan Super.Fly 5 is now unveiled in two more iterations this season.

Sporting tonal finishes of game royal and gym red, this latest take on Blake Griffin’s signature basketball silhouette essentially incorporates a versatile composition that is comprised of a lightweight upper, inner sleeve and forefoot Zoom Air unit that promotes lightweight responsiveness and ultimate lockdown.

For its distinct aesthetic, the upper features a knitted motif to exude additional flair. Finally, both pairs are complemented with white accents gracing the Jumpman logo across its heel and tongue, as it all rests atop a clean outsole.

Retailing for $150, expect to find these model at select Nike and JB accounts starting next month.

I like the design on this model more than its predecessor. The upcoming colorways are pretty nice offerings to start off the line as well.

Even more imagery of this special edition Air Jordan 9 is unveiled yet again, as the classic basketball sneaker essentially celebrates Bryant?s illustrious 20-year career in the NBA.

Finishing details consists of metallic silver eye stays and matching white laces.

Erik Kynard Qualifies For Rio Wearing A Pair Of Jordan Brand Track Spikes

Erik Kynard 1 Erik Kynard 2 Erik Kynard 3 Erik Kynard 4

Kori Carter isn’t the only US track & field star wearing Jordan Brand track spikes. High Jump specialist Erik Kynard was also reppin’ for the Jumpman in the Olympic qualifiers.

In the images above Kynard can be seen at the USATF Olympic Trials in Eugene, Oregon yesterday as he was competing to earn a spot to go to Rio. Just like Carter, he’s also wearing an exclusive Jordan Brand track spike that comes dressed in black and white with elephant print. Kynard ended up qualifying for Rio with a jump of 7’6″.

I guess wearing Jordan Brand actually helped Kynard jump higher.

New Images Of The Air Jordan 9 Kobe Bryant PE

Air Jordan 9 Kobe 1 Air Jordan 9 Kobe 2 Air Jordan 9 Kobe 3 Air Jordan 9 Kobe 4 Air Jordan 9 Kobe 5 Air Jordan 9 Kobe 6

Earlier this year we saw Jordan Brand create the Air Jordan Kobe Pack which features the Air Jordan 3 and Air Jordan 8 in Laker colorways. While we thought that there might have been a possibility that they would release to the masses its now very unlikely as more and more time passes by.

Serving as somewhat of a consolation prize is the Air Jordan 9 that you see above which is expected to release later this year. This Kobe Bryant PE colorway of the Air Jordan 9 features a white leather upper with purple patent leather on the mudguard and heel. Yellow accents have then been added on the branding on the tongue, midsole, and heel. The only difference between this pair and the one that Kobe wore back in 2002 is that this pair has Michael Jordans “23” on the heel instead of Kobe’s number 8.

The Air Jordan 9 Kobe Bryant PE is scheduled to release some time in November of 2016 for $190. Do you plan on copping? Make sure to head over to our Air Jordan 9 Kobe Bryant PE launch page for additional images and release information.

Author’s Take

Even thought I don’t like Kobe, I would have maybe considered buying this sneaker if it were a different silhouette. I’m not a fan of the Air Jordan 9 so these are a pass for me.

Author’s Take

The combination of the black mesh upper and the iridescent snakeskin heel is a good look. I think I would actually consider buying these if they look as good in person.

Last month an exclusive Oregon Ducks PE colorway of the Air Jordan 14 surfaced which was given out to members of the school’s Track & Field team. But you knew it was only a matter of time until people who AREN’T members of the team got their hands on a pair.

Actor Chi McBride recently decided to show the world that you don’t have to be an Oregon Duck to get your hands on a pair, all you have to do is know the right people. McBride posted a few pictures of the Air Jordan 14s along with an on-feet shot.

Air Jordan 1 Low No Swoosh White

 

Release Date: July 16, 2016
Price: $190

The Air Jordan 1 Low No Swoosh made its debut back in May of 2016. It did so by releasing 3 tonal colorways of brand new model. We’re now in July and an all-White version is getting ready to release.

The Air Jordan 1 Low No Swoosh White is done in a all-White color scheme (sole unit included). The upper is constructed out of a tumbled leather. The new textured leather and the removal of the Nike Swoosh we’re used to seeing on the side panels end up giving the model more of a premium/lifestyle/luxurious look to it. Add in the tonal waxed laces and you’ve got yourself a very versatile looking shoe. The beloved Nike Air is still placed on the tongue, while the Wings logo is noted on the heel.

Author’s Take

Juan Carrillo, News: I’ve been on the fence about this model since the moment I saw it. I was close to picking up the Green colorway, but decided to pass up on them. It’s a nice change on the model. I may just end up picking up a pair later on this year, I doubt it will be in the high maintenance all-White colorway though.

Jimmy Butler And Jordan Brand Update Michael Jordans Failure For Upcoming Ad

The iconic Air Jordan ads of the late 1990s and 2000s are remembered as the most inspirational sports-related ads ever created. It focuses on Jordan being a human rather than being an otherworldly star, which is a big reason why Jordan Brand continues its unprecedented success years after MJ’s final game. Now with an outstanding stable of athletes, Jordan Brand is able to carry on that winning tradition, and who better than current Bulls superstar Jimmy Butler? In this preview, Butler recalls Jordan’s iconic “Failure” ad in which he credits his failures and obstacles as the source of his drive to victory. Check out a preview of Butler’s ad as well as the original ad just ahead.

Air Jordan 16 Midnight Navy

Release Date: November 5th, 2016
Price: $250

The Air Jordan 16 originally released more than 15 years ago (March 2001). This November, the shoe makes its return coming in the OG Midnight Navy colorway. The last time we saw any kind of version of the shoe was back in 2008 when the Black Air Jordan 16 released as a part of the CDP where it got paired up with the Air Jordan 7. Fun fact about the shoe, it was also the first Air Jordan since the Air Jordan 3 that was not designed by Tinker Hatfield.

This colorway is said to be a nod back to Jordan’s playing days with his second NBA team, the Washington Wizards. The shoe comes dressed in a White tumbled leather upper accented by the Midnight Navy patent leather toe which also includes a Navy mesh underlay resting on top of a translucent outsole. One of the most recognizable features on the shoe is the removable shroud that helps give the shoe two different looks. The Air Jordan 16 Midnight Navy is expected to return on November 5, 2016 for a retail price of $250.

Author’s Take

Juan Carrillo, News: The Air Jordan 16 is not a model I’d say I like or dislike. It’s just a “meh” Jordan sneaker. The fact that Jordan Brand is bringing it back and pricing it at $250 make me want the shoe even less. The colorway is clean, but I’m not sold on picking up a pair only because I’m not in love with it.

The Air Jordan 9 Kobe Missed A Major Detail

This November, the Air Jordan 9 “Kobe” is slated for a release at retail. It is the first-ever Air Jordan Retro in Lakers colors that references Kobe Bryant’s Player Exclusives during the famed “sneaker free agency” in the early part of the 2000s, and although the purple patent leather and gold detailing is supremely attractive, Jordan Brand could’ve made these even better had they kept one detail truly “OG”. The upcoming Air Jordan 9 “Kobe” features MJ’s 23 embroidered on the heel instead of number 8 that is seen in Kobe’s version. It’s nothing to get upset about, but this upcoming drop would’ve been that much better. Get a detailed look here and let us know if these are a must-have for you.

Check Out Kori Carters Exclusive Jordan Brand Track Spikes

Remember the Volt Air Jordan 11 that blew us all away a couple of weeks ago? That Air Jordan 11 was a custom pair that was designed by Jordan Brand exclusively for for track star and Jordan brand athlete Kori Carter. But we know that she can’t wear retros while competing, so what does JB lace her up with for her big races?

Carter gets to wear these exclusive track spikes for her Olympic trials. These track spikes from the Jumpman feature what looks to be a mesh upper that is done in blue with bright crimson elephant print detailing and a white Jumpman logo on the side panels.

What are your thoughts on these track spikes? Let us know down in the comments below.
