For quite some time, we’ve known that the Air Jordan 12 would release in a brand new colorway that also came with a brand new material we had never seen on the shoe before. Today we finally get our first look at the Air Jordan 12 Wool.

Spotted at the Jordan Flu Game Pop-Up shop in Salt Lake City, Utah, the Jordan 12 in the Wool variation was displayed side to side next to all the Jordan 12s that have released as well as the ones that are also scheduled to release. The Jordan 12 Wool comes with an upper that comes in a predominantly Black wool construction. A Black textured leather mudguard and all-Black sole unit create a tonal look on the shoe. Metal eyelets provide the only form on contrast on the entire shoe. Said to be releasing on October 16th, there’s no doubt that the shoe will be a popular option for the Fall/Winter season. Thoughts on the shoe now that you’ve seen it? Let us know in the comments below.

Author’s Take

I’ve been seeing mixed reviews on the shoe, but I actually like the the wool construction myself. The fact that Jordan decided to give the shoe a tonal look was also a good idea considering that wool was used. I’m looking forward to this release.

Not too long ago, Jordan Brand decided to take the top down on the lifestyle sneaker, the Jordan Horizon. Now the Jordan Horizon Low is previewed in two never before seen colorways done in two different materials.

Notable features on the shoe include the flip-down buttoned collar. The first pair is done in a Navy Blue leather construction, while the second pair has a Jacquard textile upper done in a Bright Green and Blue motif. Both pairs are offset by the Air Jordan 13  midsole done in White paired up with the translucent outsole. Said to be dropping on the near future, let us know if you plan on picking up a pair.

I prefer the Jordan Horizon, over the Horizon Low. I prefer the Jordan Future over the Jordan Horizon. In other words, I won’t be picking these up.

The Jordan Horizon drops its top for summer with the new low-top edition. Following the footsteps of the Jordan Future, the lifestyle edition of the Air Jordan 13 receives a unique low-top design with a flip-down buttoned collar, which we see here in two upcoming colorways. One in navy blue features a leather build, while the other comes constructed in a jacquard textile upper in bright green and blue. If you happen to like what you see here, be on the lookout for the Horizon Low as select Jordan Brand retailers soon.

The Air Jordan 4 PRM Snakeskin is one of the more controversial sneaker releases in quite some time. The premium snakeskin upper make its unlike any other Air Jordan 4 we have ever seen outside of customs to give it a luxury look and feel that definitely elevates Jordan Brand to a different place. However, was the $400 price really necessary to prove that point across?

Andres Carrillo, News: I just picked up my first pair of 11 Lows with the Navy Gum pair. I’m thinking I may have to cop 2 pairs in the same year. The fact that these are leather on the upper is dope.

Andres Carrillo, News: Just like the white and gold Olympic pair, I don?t like the patent leather tongue on this pair of 5s. I think these will be a pass for me.

The only thing I like about this pair is the blue/purple gradient outsole. Other than that it just looks like an all-black Air Jordan 10. These will be a pass for me.

If you buy these kicks you?ll definitely get noticed, but this colorway is just too bright for me. Plus I?m not even a fan of the Air Jordan 9.

The classic Air Jordan 12 is set to receive a new makeover this season, as JB aims to make the basketball sneaker more durable and modern.

As implied, the defining component is its nylon composition. Covering the majority of its upper, the fabric is noted to be waterproof as well to further increase its versatility. With this new application, the model is suggested to be much lighter, while the traditional leather overlays on the forefoot and lateral portion is retained to maintain its premium and iconic profile.

All resting atop a clean, white outsole unit, subtle accents of red located on the tongue tab finishes off the design.

Author’s Take:

Renz Ofiaza, News:

It?ll be interesting to see how this model does. This variation looks pretty solid already. I always wondered if the brand would explore new materials and apply it on classics just to see how it would be received. For example, the utilization of flyknit or engineered mesh as well.

After showing you detailed images of the Black pair, we now get a closer look at the white colorway from the Air Jordan 1 High OG Premium Essentials Pack.

Dressed in a white leather upper, this Air Jordan 1 is offset by black detailing on the Swoosh, inner liner, Wings logo and the Nike Air branding on the tongue. The rest of the shoe is done in white including the laces, tongue, midsole and outsole.

Beginning to pop up at select retailers overseas, stay tuned to Kicks On Fire for a stateside release. Which colorway are you feeling more, all-black or all-white?

Author’s Take

just like the black pair, this all-white version is a little too plain for me. Nike Air branding or not, I don’t see myself buying this Air Jordan 1.

New colorways of the Air Jordan 1 release every month, but it’s not very often that we see them release with Nike Air branding on the tongue.

Two new pairs of the iconic silhouette recently arrived at overseas retailers in what’s being known as the Air Jordan 1 High OG Premium Essentials Pack. Today we take a closer look at the black pair which comes with a black leather upper and contrasting white accents on the Swoosh, midsole, Wings logo and the Nike Air on the tongue.

Take a look at the detailed images above and stay tuned to Kicks On Fire for a US release date. In the meantime let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

Usually when Air Jordan 1s have Nike Air branding on the tongue you think you’re in for a teat. I don’t think that’s the case anymore. This colorway is a little too plain for my liking.

Jordan Brand’s ongoing Air Jordan 10 City Pack has ditched the traditionalism found throughout the original 1994 offering to expand the collection globally. Instead of somewhat obscure NBA cities like Sacramento and Orlando getting a nod, the Jumpman has expanded to fashion capitals around the globe, the latest being this Air Jordan 10 “Shanghai”. The Hornets-vibe uses Gamma Blue and Fierce Purple as the main accents, as the premium black leather upper sees contrast piping in both shades throughout the numerous panels. The gradient outsole fading from Fierce Purple at the heel to Gamma Blue by the toe is undoubtedly the highlight of this particular Air Jordan 10 release. Stay tuned for upcoming release info on this pair and let us know where this latest Air Jordan 10 City Pack installment ranks compared to the other cities by taking your thoughts to our comments section.
