A Familiar Air Jordan 12 Is Releasing Soon Just For Kids


Does this Air Jordan 12 look familiar? You might remember the Air Jordan 12 “Gamma Blue” from 2013 featuring a rather similar construction, and now the near-identical look is returning in a grade school exclusive on July 2nd. Instead of the Gamma Blue shade that dominated 2013’s release slate, the look here is dubbed “Hyper Jade” and adds the shade to the lining while replacing the red Jumpman branding with a clean Metallic Silver. What do you think of the look? Check out more photos after the break and be sure to stay updated on the latest Jordan release dates right here on Sneaker News.

Another Amazing Kids-Exclusive Air Jordan 12 Is Releasing Soon


The Air Jordan 12 continues to surprise, as another kids’ exclusive colorway is slated to arrive at retailers later this summer.

Instead, the Jumpman is limiting this clean pair to just GS sizes, taking a break from the candy-coated vibrancy usually found in the kids’ category. What do you think of the look? Check out a better view below and we’ll keep you updated on a release date in the near future.

Look For This Barons-Themed Air Jordan 12 This Summer

Air Jordan 12 1 Air Jordan 12

The Air Jordan 12 continues to be celebrated in this year, as the model is previewed in another colorway, which is rumored to make its arrival this summer.

Flaunting a classic palette of white/grey and black, the color scheme is reminiscent of MJ’s days with the Birmingham Barons in 1994, which was essentially a minor league baseball team and Double-A affiliate of the Chicago White Sox major-league club.

White and grey covers the majority of its leather composition, while touches of black are applied on the miniature side panels, upper eyelets, tongue, heel tabs and branding on the rear.

The model is reportedly a GS variation, but stay tuned to KicksOnFire for further updates and its official release date.

Fans of the Hornets should definitely pick up this colorway of the Air Jordan 10. This is without a doubt one of the most vibrant colorways from the pack, but I don?t anticipate grabbing a pair.

Check Out The Sweet Detailing On This Air Jordan 1 Wings Custom

20160616_001350 20160616_034932 20160616_035017 20160616_035106 20160616_035240 20160616_035340 20160616_035410

The Air Jordan 12 Wings will undoubtedly be one of the most memorable Air Jordan releases of 2016. It was a highly coveted release for several reasons. Aside from Jordan Brand making it a limited release, just days before the shoe dropped they announced a major feature on the shoe that none of us knew about. Beneath the all-Black leather upper lies another layer covered in a Wings print dressed in Gold and Black. You have the option of wiping off the Black upper to reveal the Wings print on any part of the upper that you desire. This new feature on the shoe is definitely one of the main reasons the resell value us ridiculous.

Grabbing inspiration from that release is this Air Jordan 1 Wings custom. Artist, Pirate Robot redesigns the Air Jordan 1 High OG Cyber Monday to give it the exact same “Wings” look as the one you find on the 12s. Instead of covering the entire shoe in the Wings print, Pirate Robot strategically places it on on different areas of the shoe to create some nice color blocking on the shoe. Just imagine if Jordan Brand had released these in the same manner that the 12s were released. Can you imagine the hype they would get?! If you’re interested in getting a pair done or simply want to see more of Pirate Robot’s work, head on over to his IG for more info. Don’t sleep on this guy!

The Air Jordan 12 is releasing, or has released in a number of solid colorways this year, and this is another great example. If only those blue-colored panels on the sides would be white instead, I?ll be all over it.
