The Swooshless Air Jordan 1 Low Is Releasing In White


Jordan Brand continues to push their off-the-court styles this summer, with the iconic Air Jordan 1 model ditching the patented Swoosh side panel branding to transform into unrecognizable territory. Mike’s first model has seen a number of revamps over the past year and a half whether it be the Pinnacle series or this weekend’s Air Jordan 1 Retro High EP featuring added perforations. After a trio of monochromatic offerings a few months back, the Air Jordan 1 Low Swooshless is now available in a clean all white colorway. The tumbled leather construction is complimented by a leather ‘Nike Air’ branded tongue tag and classic ‘Wings’ branding on the heel, each camouflaged by a matching shade of white. Available today for $150 USD via Rock City Kicks.

This Air Jordan 9 Pays Tribute To Kobe Bryant

Air Jordan 9 Air Jordan 9 2 Air Jordan 9 1

Micheal Jordan paid tribute to Kobe Bryant‘s historic career in the NBA with a limited edition Air Jordan Kobe Pack earlier this year, and now, the public will have a chance to celebrate the Black Mamba once again, as a special variation of the Air Jordan 9 is set to be offered.

Sporting the signature colors of the team that Bryant only played for — the Los Angeles Lakers — the basketball sneaker’s majority is comprised of premium white leather, while bold purple adorns the patent leather overlay encompassing its midsole unit and flows across its rear and throughout the collar section. Capping of the theme consists of subtle metallic gold accents gracing the miniature Jumpman branding across its heels.

Stay tuned to KicksOnFire for an official release date.

Author’s Take

I really like this silhouette in olive/black, but this colorway is pretty solid too. It’s a nice gesture and solid tribute. I’m sure a lot of fans will be pleased.

I like both colorways but I?ll side with this more since it?s more versatile and less maintenance on cleaning. I like the overall build.

Back in May we saw Jordan Brand release three tonal colorways of the Air Jordan 1 Low that were distinguished by the absence of the worldly renown Swoosh logo on the side panels. All three colorways were greeted with open arms as the shoes featured premium tumbled leather uppers that left everyone wanting more.

Now we’ll see a new colorway releasing for the Summer of 2016 with this all-white option that you see above. Today we get our first look at the latest Air Jordan 1 Low No Swoosh that takes on the same tonal upper with a premium leather upper but this time in white, the ideal colorway of the Summer. The shoe is finished off with Nike Air branding on the tongue and the Wings logo on the heel.

At the moment this white Air Jordan 1 Low No Swoosh is expected to release on July 16, 2016 for $150. Stay tuned to Kicks On Fire for updates.

I like any of the other three colorways that already released better than this one. Materials are dope again but these are a pass for me.

This PSNY x Air Jordan 1 Low No Swoosh Is A Friends & Family Exclusive

How may of you got a pair of the Air Jordan 1 Low No Swoosh that dropped a while back? While we wait for more colorways to drop, today we take a look at the PSNY x Air Jordan 1 Low No Swoosh, which is said to be a Friends & Family only release.

The PSNY x Air Jordan 1 Low No Swoosh comes dressed in a Black tumbled leather upper offset by the Gold/Yellow hits placed on the sole unit and tongue branding. Additional details include the Gold lace tips on the Black laces. So who owns this pair? Jordan brand employee @FrankCooker posted this image on his IG, so there’s a good chance that this is going to be a Friends & Family exclusive colorway. Hot or not? Let us know in the comment below.

Author’s Take

The Air Jordan 1 Low No Swoosh was created to be a lifestlye sneaker. In my opinion, subtle colorways look best on the shoe. If these were to drop, I’d still choose one of the inaugural colorways before this pair.

Anthony Hamilton Rocks This Never Before Seen Air Jordan 3

Processed with VSCO with f2 preset Processed with VSCO with f2 preset Processed with VSCO with f2 preset

R&B sensation, Anthony Hamilton was recently spotted with a pair of Air Jordan 3s that we’ve never seen before. The close up shot up top shows that the Air Jordan 3 coms in an all-Brown leather upper sitting on top of a gum-bottom outsole. A Brown upper and a Gum bottom on an Air Jordan 3? Those are definitely two traits were not used to seeing on Jordans.

As of right now we have no clue whether these are sample, unreleased, PEs or something of that nature. What should be noted is that it is being reported that Anthony Hamilton recently received a Jordan Brand package consisting all the pairs from the Air Jordan 1 to the Air Jordan 30 coming in this same color scheme. My question to you is, would you cop if these drop?

Take my money now, Jordan Brand! I’d love to see these release.

Pinnacle Quality Without The Pinnacle Price For This Weekends Air Jordan 1 Releases


Jordan Brand is well-aware of the Air Jordan 1‘s legendary status as a lifestyle classic, which is part of the reason why they introduced the 24K gold-laden Pinnacle series and releases like the “Cyber Monday” colorway. Not only did those recent drops showcase the model moving away from traditional looks, but it also gave the impression that the AJ1 was a premium fashion icon. Just in case you didn’t want to drop $400 on a pair, this weekend’s duo of the freshly minted Air Jordan 1 Retro High EP comes equipped with the luxurious Pinnacle aesthetic, but at half the cost. The Air Jordan 1 is hardly a summer-ready model but thanks to the added perforations throughout, the shoe gets a breathable makeover. The simple colorways of white and black are aided by that casual-inclined Vachetta Tan shade on the lining for good measure. Each pair will be available this Saturday, July 9th for $160 USD. Check out more detailed photos below and be sure to stay updated on the latest Jordan release dates right here on Sneaker News.

The New Jordan Super.Fly 5 Sports A Classic Finish

Jordan Super.Fly 5 6 Jordan Super.Fly 5 7 Jordan Super.Fly 5 4 Jordan Super.Fly 5 5 Jordan Super.Fly 5 1 Jordan Super.Fly 5 3 Jordan Super.Fly 5 2 Jordan Super.Fly 5

Another colorway of the newly-introduced Jordan Super.Fly 5 is unveiled, this time flaunting an understated palette of black with grey.

Noted as the signature basketball sneaker of Los Angeles Clippers’ star forward, Blake Griffin, the silhouette is defined by a lightweight breathable woven and synthetic upper, which bears a distinct knitted slash motif for additional flair. Treated in black, the midsole unit is rendered in a faded finish, which flows from black to grey and white starting from the heel.

Pops of infrared located on the Jumpman branding across its heel, tongue label, inner lining and outsole unit pronounce the design for an aesthetically pleasing contrast, while also completing its overall palette.

Priced at $150, you can expect to find this latest pair at select Nike and JB retailers in the coming weeks ahead.

Author’s Take

I like the design on this model more than its predecessor. This colorway is pretty appealing and it?s a classic combo. I like the two-tone finish overall.

Additional notable details include the Swooshes on its side panels, embossed Jumpman logo on the tongue, and the signature wings logo across its ankles.

Another Preview Of The Air Jordan 3 Cyber Monday

Air Jordan 3 Air Jordan 3 1 Air Jordan 3 2

Following an initial glimpse, new preview images of the upcoming Air Jordan 3 Cyber Monday are provided, which emphasizes its overall aesthetic much more clearly.

Sporting a simple and classic two-tone palette, the sneaker is essentially similar to the AJ 1 that released back in November 2015. Comprised of leather for its upper in tonal black, the stealthy component is nicely offset by a crisp, white rubber sole unit.

This pair is suggested to make its debut on November 28th for a retail price tag of $190.

Stay tuned to KicksOnFire for further updates.

Author’s Take

These latest images are somewhat more attractive. The colorway is a classic, but, somehow, I’m not really into it, even though I’m biased towards the silhouette.

After getting a look at official images of the white colorway, we now show you official pictures of the black pair from the Air Jordan 1 High OG Premium Essentials Pack.

Just like the white pair, this colorway takes on a tonal black leather upper with minimal white detailing on the Swoosh, wings branding by the ankle, and the midsole. The inner liner and outsole have been done in black to keep things simple. No word on when (or if) these will arrive stateside but we’ll keep you updated here at Kicks On Fire.

Author’s Take

If I had to pick between this pair and the white one I would go with the black just because it would be easier to keep clean. I don’t plan on buying either pair though.
