There’s a sudden release of not one, but two Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG colorways this Saturday, June 11th at select retailers in Asia. Jordan Brand calls this super-clean set of releases the “Premium Essentials” Pack, featuring white/black and black/white color-blocking with red tongue labels that read Nike Air; think of it as the brand’s take on the must-have sneaker staple for every rotation, much like the classic all-white Air Force 1 is. No word on whether or not these two are exclusive overseas, but we’ll bring you updates on these clean OG 1s as the story develops. In the meantime, check out a detailed look ahead and look for these on store shelves in Asia this Saturday.

As a homage to MJ’s alma mater — the University of North Carolina — this vibrant iteration of the Air Jordan 9 Low will be making its debut this weekend.

Defined by its university blue-colored leather upper, this 1994 retro is perfectly offset against a clean white midsole and outsole unit. Additional pops of blue are evident on the Jumpman symbols on the heel, while the number “23” on the rear is accompanied with a Jumpman over a globe badge in black.

You can find this pair at select JB and Nike accounts this Saturday, June 11 for a price tag of $170.

I don?t hate how it looks in low-cut form, but I?d really prefer the model in its original form. The colorway isn?t for me, but it?s pretty appealing. This should get some attention.

Public School showcased something special at the backstage of its runway show yesterday, as the contemporary NY-based fashion label revealed its upcoming PSNY x Air Jordan 1 Low No Swoosh.

Essentially intended as a lifestyle-inclined silhouette, the revamped Swooshless model perfectly fits in line with the brand’s signature minimalist ethos. Black dominates its premium pebbled leather upper, while it’s offset against a clean white rubber sole unit.

In addition, pops of yellow evidenced on the tongue label, along the threading of the midsole and outsole provide a nice touch of contrast.

Finishing touches include gold lace tips and subtle tonal branding on the heel.

Stay tuned to KicksOnFire for an official release date. Also, check out our official Air Jordan 1 Low No Swoosh launch page on the most recent pairs released.

I’m all for minimalism and simple designs, and I’m a fan of the silhouette in general. I would’ve preferred it without the yellow accents but this colorway is pretty solid nonetheless.

Just in time for the NCAA Track & Field Championship that begins tomorrow in Eugene, the Oregon Ducks recently received a special edition Air Jordan 14 PE to celebrate the event.

Exclusive for the players only, the classic silhouette incorporates a green-colored nubuck upper with the university’s Puddles the Duck logo embossed across its entirety to further label its exclusivity.

Rounded out with a white midsole unit and grey accents on the tongue and inner lining, the model features co-branding on the heel, as well as the word ?TRACK? embroidered on the tongue.

Unfortunately, this silhouette won’t be available to the public.

I’m a fan of the silhouette and this colorway looks solid. I actually would consider purchasing if it did release. I like the color coordination overall.

Additionally, it will bear the original ?Nike Air? branded insoles.

Loyalty!

That’s one quality that Marcus Jordan (son of Michael Jordan) has shown time and time again. He showed it back when he was in college when he refused to wear adidas (wore Jordan Brand) and as a result his school lost their $3 million adidas deal.

Then he showed it again earlier this year as he fired back at Kanye West’s “Facts” track that claimed that “Yeezy Jumped Over The Jumpman” by posting a couple of tweets in which he expressed that he “needed a good laugh” to start off 2016.

Today he was back at again as someone asked him on Twitter if his new sneaker store Trophy Room would be selling the new adidas Yeezy Boost 750 this weekend. Here’s the exchange.

@HEIRMJ Will Trophy Room be carrying the Adidas Yeezy Boost 750s on the 11th?

— Armani Wilson (@xystbs) June 7, 2016

TROPHY ROOM will never carry anything Adidas. https://t.co/6z7W6K6o35

— Marcus Jordan (@HEIRMJ) June 7, 2016

Never! There goes your answer. Marcus Jordan is team Jumpman all the way.

If you want to know what stores WILL release the Yeezys then make sure to visit our adidas Yeezy Boost 750 Grey Gum launch page for a list of retailers.

Releasing alongside the Air Jordan 9 Low Pantone this weekend will be another low-top Air Jordan retro that also relies on the use of blue.

The Air Jordan 2 Low will pay homage to Michael Jordan’s college days this weekend as it comes dressed up in a North Carolina-inspired colorway. White takes care of the entire leather upper while Midnight Navy and University Blue serve as the perfect contrast to complete the Tar Heel theme.

Arriving at select retailers on June 11th for a retail price of $170, who plans on picking up this Air Jordan 2? Make sure you follow our Air Jordan 2 Low UNC launch page for the latest updates and release information.

Maybe if Jordan Brand would have made these original mids they would be more popular, but the fact that it’s a low means they’ll probably sit on shelves.

Jordan Brand will be going blue this weekend as they plan on releasing two separate sneakers that are highlighted by their heavy use of blue.

One of those two shoes is this Pantone/University Blue colorway of the Air Jordan 9 Low. This retro features a full leather upper done in University Blue. A contrasting white sole unit adds some balance to the sneaker which also features a bright blue Jumpman on it. Black detailing can then be seen on the inner liner, tongue tag and the globe on the heel.

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.

Jordan Brand will be having a special pop-up shop this weekend to commemorate the 19th anniversary of the legendary Flu Game during the 1997 NBA Finals. His Airness ended up dropping 37 points on the road during Game 5 and lead the the Bulls to victory all while suffering from flu-like symptoms.

To celebrate the miraculous performance Jordan Brand is holding a special pop-up shop at Fice Gallery and Boutique in Salt Lake City, Utah. On this day JB will be releasing a limited number of pairs of the upcoming Air Jordan 12 Gym Red that doesn’t officially release until July 2nd. Fice Gallery and Boutique is located at 160 E 200 S Salt Lake City, UT 84111 and the event will take place at 2:30 PM. There also may be a restock of the Air Jordan 12 Flu Game.

I just have one question, why is this taking place in Utah? Weren’t the 1997 and 1998 NBA Finals punishment enough?

In 2014, we were treated to the first Air Jordan Championship Pack, which featured two Air Jordan 6s that highlighted the celebrations that followed after Michael Jordan and the Chicago won their first NBA title. A year later, the inevitable sequel followed with two Air Jordan 7s taking on the winning theme. In 2016, the first trilogy (because you know they’re doing it for the second three-peat with 11s, 12, 13/14, just you wait…) concludes with the Air Jordan 8 Championship Celebration Pack that reminisces about that time MJ beat Charles Barkley and the Phoenix Suns to claim third consecutive Larry O’Brien trophy. With the Air Jordan 8 being such a hit or miss in the sneakerhead marketplace in the past year or so, it will be interesting to see how well this pair performs.

The Air Jordan 9 Low is set to drop in another variation this season, as this particular colorway looks to pay homage to MJ’s alma mater — the University of North Carolina.

Defined by University Blue covering the basketball sneaker’s entire leather upper, tongue, laces and mudguard, the vibrant shade is perfectly offset by touches of black, which are prominent on the inner lining, rear and tongue label.

All juxtaposed nicely against a clean, white rubber sole unit, the model is rounded out with more branding on the heel via an embroidered ?23.?

Find this pair at select JB and Nike accounts on Saturday, June 11 for a price tag of $170.

This Saturday is the nineteen-year anniversary of Michael Jordan’s epic “Flu Game”. On June 11th, 1997, MJ took on the Utah Jazz in a pivotal Game 5 of the ’97 Finals while battling a crippling flu. Most players would’ve been rendered ineffective and may have even sat out the game due to the illness, but Jordan did what he does best – he showed up in a big way. Dropping 37 points to highlight an all-around superb game, Jordan let the Bulls to victory and eventually took the Finals series for his fifth NBA title. To commemorate the Flu Game, Jordan Brand is holding a special pop-up shop at Fice Boutique, releasing a limited edition run of the upcoming red/white Air Jordan 12 Retro. There will likely be a re-stock of the Flu Game 12s as well. Get more details below.

The Air Jordan Horizon hasn’t had the success that Jordan Brand was hoping for ever since it released. With the huge success that was achieved with the Air Jordan Future, JB was hoping for more of the same. Unfortunately that wasn’t the case.

If you happen to be a fan and supporter of the hybrid silhouette from the Jumpman then you may be happy to know that the shoe has now been created in low-top form. Today we get a look at the Air Jordan Horizon Low in a Triple Black colorway that has been popular for the last couple of years.

What are your thoughts on the Air Jordan Horizon Low in the Triple Black colorway? You can pick up a pair now at select retailers for $145.

I wasn’t a huge fan of the original Air Jordan Horizon and I think the Low looks even worse. Not a good idea by Jordan Brand.
