All-Gold sneakers. You either rock them with confidence or completely stay away from them. I considered myself a fan of this bold motif, but seeing it on the Air Jordan 6 Pinnacle Metallic Gold is having me second-guess my initial statement. While the all-Gold look usually results in a bold and flashy looking sneaker, I do feel like it may not be the right look for the Jordan 6. In a way, it kind of looks like a tropy, doesn’t it? The all-Gold premium leather upper is only contrasted by the White accents placed on the midsole, heel tab/pull tab, lining and tongue. Additional Gold is found on the laces and lace tips, while the translucent outsole completes the look of the shoe. Dropping during the holiday season, are you looking forward to this release? Be sure to visit out Air Jordan 6 Pinnacle Metallic Gold hub page for all the latest images and info regarding this release.

Author’s Take

The fact that it’s labeled as a Pinnacle release leads me to believe that they’re going to cost at least $400. That’s far too much for a sneaker I’m iffy about.

Who’s hyped for the Air Jordan 9 Kobe? Although the shoe isn’t slated to release until November, people are taking notice for the simple fact that the shoe has some sort of connection to Kobe Bryant.

Said to celebrate Kobe Bryant’s NBA career, the shoe comes rocking a Lakers theme. A White leather base is complimented by the hits of Purple and Yellow placed on the patent leather overlay, lining, tongue and heel and tongue branding. While many blogs are calling these the Air Jordan 9 Kobe, it should be noted that neither Nike or Jordan Brand have made a connection between the two. Releasing in November for $190, who’s looking forward to this release.

If these are in fact a Jordan-Kobe inspired release they will get hyped. I’m not a fan of the 9s so these will be an easy pass regardless of the inspiration.

This OG colorway of the Air Jordan 14 will be making its debut next weekend, as additional official imagery of the 1999 classic is revealed once again.

Essentially a remastered iteration, the model stays true to its classic makeup with a crisp smooth/tumbled white leather upper, while contrasting accents of black solidify its overall palette which is primarily located on the laces, inner lining, tongue and midsole unit.

Notable elements consists of legend blue and green implemented throughout its entirety, as each pair incorporates seven Jumpman symbols that symbolically equate to its spot in line within the Jordan Franchise — fourteen. The symbols are located on the shield, two metal-tip laces, sole, heel, toe box, and the insole.

Retailing for a price tag of $190, you can purchase the sneaker at select Nike and JB stockists next Saturday, July 16th. GS sizes (3.5y ? 7y) will be offered as well and listed $140.

The color combo is essentially a classic, but I?m not really fond of this model. Although it hasn?t been seen since ?99, I?m sure fans of the silhouette are elated for the revival.

Although the Air Jordan 9 Retro OG White / Black-True Red is not scheduled to release until the end of the year, we have new images to share with you.

If you take a close at the shoe, you will easily notice that it comes in the OG colorway consisting of White, Black and True Red. What you may have not noticed is the fact that it comes done in OG fashion as the beloved Nike branding is placed on the insoles of the shoe. Just like back in 1993, the shoe comes dressed in a White and Black upper, contrasted by the True Red placed on the branding located on the tongue, heel, midsole and outsole. Release date is currently December 3. Is this a colors of the 9 that you consider a must-cop?

The 9s are one of my least favorite sneaker from the Air Jordan retro line. I will not be picking these up.

Chris Paul took to his social media to share a pic of team Jordan Brand and himself spending some time with the head honcho of the brand, Michael Jordan. The picture above shows Chris Paul with Michael Jordan along with other members of team Jordan including Bismack Biyombo, Jimmy Butler and Quentin Richardson. When it comes to the footwear, Jordan retros, slides and performance shoes were all present in the pic. Michael Jordan? Well he’s laying off the retros today and instead opting to go with the brand new Jordan PT 1. Thoughts on team Jordan and the footwear of choice? Sound off in the comments below.

The Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG Bred is making a comeback in 2016. Coming in the uber-popular Bred color scheme, the high-top sneaker comes dressed in a Black and Red motif on the upper constructed out of a full premium leather. Breaking up the two-toned look of the shoe is the all-White midsole sitting on top of the Red outsole. Coming in OG fashion, the Nike branding is placed on the tongue and the Jumpman is nowhere to be found on the heel. The Wings logo also appears on the collar to complete the branding on the shoe. A Black nylon tongue and inner lining round out the major features on the shoe. Set to release on September 3rd for $160, there is no doubt that this shoe will be one of the most highly anticipated Jordan Brand drops of all 2016.

Juan Carrillo – News: I’ve never owned a pair of Jordan 1 Breds. This is definitely one of the few Jordan retros that are on my “must-buy” list. Really looking forward to this release.

If you thought the first half of 2016 has been an exciting time for the Air Jordan 12, you ain’t seen nothing yet! The Air Jordan 12’s biggest year ever, filled with a list of OG colorways and all-new looks alike, continues on through the second half of the year, where we’ll see the release of some experimental new constructions like the winter-ready wool version and this one built in neoprene.

After a brief hiatus, the iconic Air Jordan 3 is scheduled to be revived once again this year.

With this particular pair similar to the AJ 1 that released back in November 2015, the model’s official moniker essentially pays homage to the Monday after the Thanksgiving holiday in the U.S., where people are persuaded to shop online.

Defined by a simple and classic two-tone palette, black covers its premium leather upper, while the stealthy component is perfectly juxtaposed against a crisp, white rubber sole unit to cap off the composition.

Renz Ofiaza, News: Even though it looks somewhat boring, the colorway is a classic. I’m biased towards this silhouette too, but, I?m not really into it that much yet. It might grow on me as the months pass till its official release though.

This latest variation of the Air Jordan 2 pays tribute to the Quai 54 world streetball tournament.

Founded in 2003, the function is held every summer in Paris, France and it’s recognized as the biggest, most competitive and entertaining outdoor basketball event worldwide. The commemorative pair is defined by a light bone/beige colorway which seems to be comprised of nubuck and leather across its upper. Emitting lifestyle appeal with luxe detailing, the model is further pronounced with metallic gold accents located on the heel, eyelets and tongue tab, which also bears respective branding that correlates with the event.

The sneaker is topped off with matching laces, a crisp white full-length rubber sole unit and an icy translucent outsole.

Availability is limited to JB and Nike accounts overseas, as a stateside arrival has not been confirmed as of yet.

A Glimpse Of The Metallic Gold Air Jordan 6 Pinnacle

Author’s Takes

Andres Carrillo, News: I only own one pair of Air Jordan 6s (Carmines) and while the idea of a gold Air Jordan 6 sounded cool I don’t like the way it turned out. It’s just too flashy for me to wear. It looks more like a trophy and not really something you wear.

Jordan Brand continues to grow its reach, whether it be beyond the hardwood with their lifestyle imprint or in other sports, but basketball is still their bread and butter. Jimmy Butler and Carmelo Anthony are the only members of Team Jordan representing Team USA in the Olympic Games, but you can expect them to make a big splash by unveiling the Air Jordan XXX1. Michael Jordan recently took time out of his busy schedule to meet with some of the latest members of Team Jordan, from recently signed Orlando Magic forward Bismack Biyombo, CP3, Butler, and more. It will be exciting to see what else the Jumpman has planned for the summer, so stay tuned for more updates right here on Sneaker News.
